<routingerror:metropolis.nexus> how does monero prevent amount of txns, in those time periods, with these amount of funds kinda attack

Monero transactions don't expose the "amount of funds", it's private

Sender, receiver wallets are also hidden

Which outputs are spent - also hidden

It's not Bitcoin

<routingerror:metropolis.nexus> Timestamps are also private, also how does monero nodes agree on time > <sech1> Monero transactions don't expose the "amount of funds", it's private

the only thing not hidden cryptographically is sender's IP, but this is where Dandelion++ comes in

"also how does monero nodes agree on time" by median chain time

Timestamps? Irrelevant

not relevant for txs, these only care for block heights

Well, chainanal can track "time of first seen, first seen IP" meta data, but it's of little use

and they do

yeah, not relevant for monero nodes, as it's someone else keeping track of time

unless someone connects to their honeypot node and exposes their IP :)

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> like me

<routingerror:metropolis.nexus> DataHoarder: Median chain time?

<routingerror:metropolis.nexus> DataHoarder: Who?

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> chainanalysis, or me

who what? whoever the attacker part is probably has a way to measure time in the world

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> ^

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> the time each tx is first seen is known by your node, and the time it is commited into a block is known by every node. this is.. real basic

the median timestamp is the aggregation of the last N blocks, with top high/bottom low 10% removed, and median is done on these

<routingerror:metropolis.nexus> Got it thanks
