How would an asynchronous transaction work? If you're posting your side of the transaction publicly, doesn't that expose you to a MITM or spoofing attack?

- samatman 8y agoNo, the handshake requires the two public keys engaging in the transaction, no one else can complete it. They can be MITMed by an attacker spoofing the identity, but this is no different from a MITM inserting a different BTC address into a communication stream.
