What do you guys think about it? According to the structure of monero transactions (rings...) will they really be able to trace it? Or just another hype?
I think this is an overstatement. Some structures could not create a tool to track transactions for Monero network (obviously, they would not have written about it if they had such a tool), so they decided to pretend to have achieved some success. Typical cheap move.
It's true what you say, probably just looking to profit from this issue. If the tool is found, I don't think it will be too influential, maybe it's just a part of the bug that will and will definitely be fixed by the Monero Developer Team
