Title: Recent MemoryDealers.com / Blockchain.info issue
Post by: Digikeys on December 19, 2012, 11:37:09 PM
Hi All,

Been reading the forums for a while now but only now had the need to create a thread and discovered Newbies are limited to the Newbie forum.

Regarding these:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=131608.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=131608.0)

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=131574.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=131574.0)

I've read through both threads and one thing is still unclear to me: Did this involve blockchain.info's anonymizing feature and was Roger able to find out the account details even after this feature was used?

This would be a concern if the blockchain.info admin's could still see what wallet an anonymous transfers went to?

I don't believe the anonymizing feature was at issue here: he simply represented to a Blockchain.info user that he was able to determine that a certain address was in his wallet.
