Dash De-anonymization Contest

Icebreaker and other trolleros: I have donated $1 to Monero's development team. I sent 0.25 Dash (TX ID: 59d51690d4b56ddbf1e393fa8d3a49bcfc3247f270f36be3b6ee411802666cba-000) to shapeshift.io, which converted it to Bitcoin and sent it to the official Monero donation address listed at https://getmonero.org/getting-started/donate/.

I challenge you to de-anonymize this transaction. To make it just a little easier, I only used four rounds of Darksend, so it's exponentially less private than it would be with the maximum eight rounds.

Please tell me what address this transaction originated from.

Cheers!

looks like Dash is trying to consolidate on the 0.0094 range and hopefully push through it once and for all : https://cryptowat.ch/poloniex/dashbtc/4hr



still some heavy resistance ahead : https://dc-charts.com/depth_dash.php?ex=16&cu=0&tz=5&ar=1

Something is wrong on your end if you can't mix 20 dash with 8 rounds in less than 2 hours.  Or else your settings are made to wait a long time between rounds.

Mixing is not at all as stable as it needs to be. It hangs when I mix almost every time and I need to restart my client or zap the wallet to get it going again.

I do wish there was more focus on polishing the current release. I have the feeling that there might be a stampede into Dash before Evolution is ready.

Even though it might not have been optimized, most of the transaction time will depend merely on activity.

Evo is just an addon though....correct?

Thanks for this!

It's a nice quote-reply on any traditional trollero's trolling.

Our friends are now saying DASH is going to kill people?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1379833.0

Apparently has issues with DASH marketing.....make what you will of what he said:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKd7F-10lxM&feature=youtu.be&t=1522

EDIT: oh, apparently the arrogant guy slurring on the video is fluffy.

fluffypony is not arrogant, he is correct. If you disagree then encourage your developer to be interviewed and attempt to prove him wrong.

I expect Evan will instead hide is his room embarrassed by the lack of respect he receives from participants of the Satoshi Roundtable

[qwizzie]

some trolls in here really need to work on their marketing

Speaking the truth is not trolling. If you disagree ask Evan to stop hiding in his room and be interviewed by Bitcoin Uncensored and answer some simple questions.

...stop hiding...

like you behind your month old account you mean?

Tao asks: How can you avoid a Mt. Gox situation for your Dash?

http://youtu.be/40n6joIOkVg

The future is now. Use Exmo.

I did some tracking based on your exchange address and I'm pretty sure that

* This masternode is owned by you: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/address.dws?XiW49wtg2p2nbKD8KPrJdqzP2Vch5MNd74.htm
* This wallet was previously owned by you, now unused: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/address.dws?Xh2F7kU7zrQqedoki7qMmY78poEsb8ELwU.htm

I didn't use any fancy scripts to get this info. Imagine chainalysis trying to map the DASH blockchain. They would be able to extract much more info.

DASH, not that anonymous after all...

Wow... That's incredible!   How about you try doing the same on some funds that have been mixed first by darksend...?

- I've just signed up to exmo and my wallet address is Xv5mBxsjuZSb6i6o7zhBhA5jsP4D74uqF2.
- I've just deposited via instantx 30Dash that's been through 4 rounds of Darksend
- I have selected 6 masternodes from which the funds originated

That's enough information (way more than I should give you really)...

Can you tell me the address(s) - with certainty - of any of those masternodes?

Thanks  

Walter

No takers for my challenge then...?

mumbo jumbo troll talk

congratulations, you ended up in a cult after all.

fluffypony is not arrogant, he is correct.

Back in 2014, I was one of the first people ever to invest in Monero.

Can't quite remember when I dumped it but the price was around 0.008 or 0.009. i.e. 400% of what its current "pumped" price is.

The reason I dumped it was because after getting a wallet and using it, I realised what kind of product this was - a highly encrypted messaging system, nothing more. The type that have already existed in banks for decades. Except the only difference with this one was that there was no backer when your account gets hacked or when you download a dodgy wallet that sends your funds to an address that’s not the one you typed into the addressee box. Nor have you a hope in hell of checking where the “did” go because everything is just a black hole with neither "public blockchain" nor "private backer" accountability.

So, as usual, after its initial hype it crashed to a fraction of its valuation high and basically never got anywhere near it again, not even now after it’s recent 100% pump.

Despite that, the whole episode seems to have left behind a hard core of grudging, green-eyed bagholders who could never come to terms with the fact that they didn’t end up “owning” that market. It was no surprise to me but it does appear to be to them. Looking at the clown antics at the start of that video I think you can see why.

Re: “life and death” privacy I’d just say this. Regardless of their varying levels of fungibility, all cryptocurrency is anonymous. The idea that you can potentially trace from one address to another is not the difference between “life and death” and the fact that anyone is claiming it is is more a measure of their own desperation to turn a technological premium into a monetary one than any thought-through understanding of risk.

Re. “high barrier to entry masternodes”. The barrier to entry is neither high nor low. It’s set by the market. If the market didn’t want to pay you’d have no masternodes. There are 3500 and increasing. The number’s been increasing for over a year and a half so fluffypony may not like it, but the approach is successful all the same and the barrier to entry is not too high. Not only that, there is really no “barrier to entry” because the collateral threshold applies to an address balance, not people. One address will pay the return just as one gold mine will pay a return even though 2 million individuals may have shares in that goldmine.

Yeah, and I let him have it on Twitter after that little exchange! Condescending, with assumptions, but no facts to back up any of his statements. He totally lost my respect after that.
