Good luck trying to snoop in using masternodes
Good luck trying to get the dev-team consisting of individual members to use their masternodes collectively to snoop in, thereby damaging the value of the Dash they hold and getting voted out on salary as result.

I'm not satisfied by that answer. If the connection between the nodes is not encrypted, then somebody monitoring the communication between the nodes can easily decypher it.

So I'll ask again:

I have 1 question though. Is the communication between mixing nodes encrypted well? Like with TLS or things like that? Because if it isn't, then say hello to permanent transaction records:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_Data_Center

At which point, it's exactly the same problem as with Monero if the Monero blockchain is decrypted by QC.

I would not be satisfied either if i was looking to discredit Dash and having just learned that owning 4 masternodes only gives you 0.000001226 % chance of snooping in on a 4 rounds mixed PrivateSend transaction Roll Eyes

With regards to monitoring the communication between nodes leading to PrivateSend getting easily decypherable or not : why dont you give it a shot and see where it leads you ? You could be the very first person to decypher a PrivateSend transaction ....... you could get famous !!

edit : oh dear, i see arielbit is still emotionally tripping over any Dashcoin reference in this thread .. that cant be good for the bloodpressure of our little mermaid.
