hello
-
zluoq
is there any point in using monero in windows?
-
lagoon93
depends
-
cornfeedhobo
can someone remind me the name of the protocol used for onion routing within the monero network?L
-
cornfeedhobo
(not tor)

If you mean "MS will spy on what I'm doing in excruciating detail anyway", then there is one point: let them know you like privacy, but for some reason are unable to not use windows.
-
moneromooo
The other's I2P.
-
moneromooo
It's styled "garlic" routing/
-
cornfeedhobo
no not i2p either
-
moneromooo
Or maybe you mean dandelion ? It's even less close. That one is a one step forward.
-
cornfeedhobo
yessss dandelion
-
cornfeedhobo
that was killing me. thank you
-
moneromooo
It's not onion routing fwiw. The sender has no control over the route, it's a one step forward proxy really.
-
moneromooo
All the nodes in the chain know the payload.
-
lagoon93
if someone lower dandelion numbers on config.h what will happen
-
moneromooo
Depends on what dandelion numbers.
-
moneromooo
If it's the fluff prob, then it'll keep ping ponging. Unless it hits a node that had already received it maybe.
-
moneromooo
If it takes too long, it'll end up being broadcast after a timeout.

CRYPTONOTE_NOISE_MIN_DELAY from 10 to 1

moneromooo
I dunno what this one'd do. AFAK noise is the cover traffic system to stymie traffic analysis.
-
cornfeedhobo
moneromooo: not sure what you mean by that. i've never thought of onion routing being associated with sender control
-
cornfeedhobo
oh, you mean that the sender isn't describing an address?
-
cornfeedhobo
afaik everything else is more or less the same, the messages bounce around in dandelion before finally being ingested by a random node, no?
-
moneromooo
Well, maybe it is considered a pathological form of onion routing. It's fire and forget send to one peer and wash one's hands off it really. Doesn't really matter.
-
moneromooo
And your characterisation's right, if by "ingested" you mean "broadcast".
-
cornfeedhobo
indeed

If I send XMR to someone twice, can that person tell that the two transactions are from the same XMR wallet or person?
-
sech1
No
-
dougquaid
thanks
-
sech1
except if you agreed on a very specific XMR amount and you sent the exact amount twice...
-
sech1
then they can assume it's the same person sending
-
sech1
but not prove 100%
-
moneromooo
If you send to the same person without spending in between, and you had just one output, you'd end up sending the change to the same person on the second time, this is a good indication it might be from the same person.

The longer between the two txes, the more probable the inference is.
