Very funny, this is not the first time that I hear about the 'bloom filter solution. But, it does not make much sense in practice: for your payment transactions, do you want the transaction to be 'safe' or 'probabilistically' safe?
Is it that special day that you will do a 500k transfer that the probability will be against you and you will be ripped of your money...
- mike_hearn 5y agoThe Bloom filter in this case was purely a privacy technique. It had no influence on probability of tx confirmation.
