This is a very interesting read.
I've heard of these attacks before, but I never understood how a person could be threatened.
- Extremizing: an exchange that offers you $ 30 to register, after KYC, is practically performing a dust attack. Except that in that case, using the chain analysis company you just bought, you can perform a very efficient tracking of your UTXOs. Do you think this is an impossible scenario? it already happened.
it already happened.
Do you have any references for this information? It would be interesting to read a little about this IRL attack.
Looking at it, this is a threat only to people who have a lot of accumulated coins.
Another scenario,
If I am attacked this way, and then I decide to buy something with these satoshis, and if the buyer eventually puts the coins in their savings address, no one can prove that these coins are mine.
N.B. Quoting a part of a list is awful.
