@hashforce382: I need a whitepaper, gib whitepaper! XD


can someone explain this to me

Hi Hashforce,

"gib" is the german imperativ from "geben" / give. In englisch it is like he asks you do give him the whitepaper... send him the Link Smiley
Haha, didn't know it was german, it's often used in polandball comics and it sounds funny in an english phrase.

Anyway I'm keeping a list of all anonymization techniques (here, if you're curious) I'll definitely add navajo (for the time being I added it to my portfolio Cheesy).

Could you confirm/deny a few points? (stuff I didn't understand from the whitepaper):
1) the navajo anonymization uses no masternode-like feature, NMG and CSG are actually just run by regular nodes
2) the transaction follows some sort of onion routing so no node beside the sender could possibly link transaction to sender ip unless they work in tandem with other malicious nodes nor run some sort of network analysis.
3)I'm assuming transactions are more or less the same size so it's not possible to distinguish transactions happening at the same time, but there are no artificial delays/salting/padding used specifically to avoid linking network activity to transfers
4) the address of the sender does not appear in the blockchain and it disappear from the network (subchains included) once the transaction is completed but what happens if the NMG or CSG or any other node involved tries to keep knowledge of the transaction or the issuer? And what happens if a malicious NMG CSG pair tries to make coins appear?
5) well this is gossip, but, did you contact the Navajos in the end? Cheesy

Personally I see navajo sending  technique to be as interesting as bitcoindark teleport, where teleport can evade any network/activity analysis and navajo makes blockchain analysis pointless. I suppose teleport protocol could be built on top of navajo for paranoia level security, that's be interesting to see Cheesy.
BTW, is there any plan to join supernet, blocknet or the likes?

Great questions. Soopy is the best person to answer these, so we'll catch him next time he's online to address these finer points.

Hi Coinwarp https://coinwarp.net/privacy/the-anonymous-coins

Great to see you added NAV / BTC NavajoCoin to your portfolio. Haha also you need to add our NavajoCoin Logo to add some colour to your website when you write about us. Let me know we you need links to the NavajoCoin Logo for the website

Just a link to question 5 regarding NavajoCoin name . In short NavajoCoin is  honouring the Navajo Code Talkers (WW2 Encryption ) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=679791.msg9421987#msg9421987

The rest is technical and will be handled by the NavajoCoin foundation as these are very important questions for us and those interested in our competing NavajoCoin Anonymous technology , which is unlike any other.

Regards
