as Adam Back says and Bitcoin dont have addresses in the first versions and the transaction between Hal Finney and Satoshi was p2p

of course there is a flaw to your anonymity and security when someone use such a system. Adam Back reply the reason why Bitcoin add Bitcoin addresses

not very good:
- recipient has to be online (vs send to address recipient offline)
- IP address could change (many ISPs dynamic IP)
- recipient could have firewall or NAT (unreachable)
- TCP hijack could send funds to someone else (intercept/reroute)
- as no authentication

Grin blockchain system demand from wallets to receive tokens to be in listen mode with an open port to your system and to expose your ip.
There and a much worst grin wallet from grin the wallet713 that your transaction relay from central servers....

  The relay does not store data. grinbox does not store any data on completed transactions by design, but it would be possible for the relay to do so and as a result build a graph of meta-data activity between grinbox addresses.
    Your IP is your responsibility. When you communicate with the grinbox relay service, you are exposing your IP to the relay. You can obfuscate your real IP address using services such as a VPN and/or TOR or i2p.

lol

For the history it seems tokens based to mimblewimble are both crap and a very bad implementations. Today beam the other mimblewimble project stuck at at block 25079.
