@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

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?

Hi Mate,

Thank you very much for your kind questions.

Let me further explain them in detail.

1) NMG and CSG are completely different parts of the blockchain tied to the Sub-Chains and does not necessarily be Nodes.

2) The transaction destination will only known by the Sender and even though of a network analysis it would be unable to pin-point which is which since the the information is transferred mostly through subchains.

3) The input transaction will be completely of different size and amount than the output one , there no linkage.

4) NMG and CSG are completely parts of the subchains and closed originated as well as encrypted, so there is no way of malicious attempts to it's functions nor it is accessible by any entity.

5) We really wanted to talk to the Navajos but with the current developments , we wanted to finish the developments and focus on the outreach attempts and ofcourse surprise them in everyway, the Foundation PR & Marketing Team handles this and would do justice better with an answer.

We strive everyday to perfect NAV ANON mate and thank you very much for kind inputs and suggestions.

We do have many ideas on implementing unbreakable security through anonimized network functionality , likes of supernet , blocknet etc , our top priority being getting out NAV ANON for the general public and build the foundation up onwards.

Do let us know if you would require any further information with regards to NAV and ANON or anything.

Thank you very much.
