Any word on how the Masternode Blinding is going?

Any word on how the Masternode Blinding is going?

Is this masternode blinding explained technically anywhere?

Any word on how the Masternode Blinding is going?

next, next version.  Still in the developer oven.

Code:

git blame v0.11.2.13 src/darksend.cpp | grep blind
79e50f81 (Evan Duffield    2015-03-20 08:47:19 -0700  648)     //automatically downgrade for 11.2, blinding will be supported in 11.3/12.0

Is this masternode blinding explained technically anywhere?

I don't have a link off-hand, but the gist of it is inputs are forwarded by randomly selected (by the wallet) masternodes to the currently active masternode. Therefore the active masternode can't correlate inputs to ip addresses.

Very curious to see how this is solved.  Especially how its possible to ensure that a masternode cannot determine the IP addresses of other masternodes it communicates with.

This is currently nearly ready for testnet or is on testnet....waiting to get some feed back right now.  This will be a great feature for further securing transactions.

no. Blinding is not an onion/garlic-routed mixnet a la i2p or tor.

Blinding is just a mixing enhancement which protects the source ip address of the wallet performing the mixing by splitting up the inputs being mixed across hosts (forwarding masternodes).

So other MN IP addresses will be visible to the MN?

[moocowmoo]

For now, yes. 

Blinding is a mixing improvement.
It's called 'masternode blinding' because the masternode network is what is used to perform the forwarding.
Not to be confused with hiding the masternode ip's.

See here for more of the debate: https://dashtalk.org/threads/which-masternode-model-should-we-implement.4115/
The topic is still being researched.

Ok got ya.  I thought it is something which would mitigate the risk of a masternode distributed denial of service attack, that's how it was presented in one of the threads I read.

Cool, thanks.

2456 Masternodes and rising.....will be 2500 in the next few days at this rate!

Bitcoin is Gold. We need to respect that.

Gold is not liquid enough in our fast moving world so it should be (and eventually will be) used as a store of value.

Silver is what we will use as currency if our fiat fails!

If Dash does what it says on the tin then we could be silver and thats the spot to be in!

Gold silver... It mean nothing ! Pure bullshit.Dash is dash and bitcoin is bitcoin, this is technology and thing move fast...

Sorry but its definitely not about machines.

Just a pleasant and friendly reminder not to feed or quote Trolls here such as Dasher, qvani and many other.  Regular forum members have most all of these many individuals on ignore and do not wish to read their drivel.

Thanks in advance.

Bitcredit will have masternodes, instantx and darksend soon. Masternodes just started testing with March 31 as go live date.
Re: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=896133.msg10781381#msg10781381

Dev looks sharp but is anonymous so Evan once again has a leg-up. Also don't know about this mining algo though, seemed to have caused more trouble than it's worth so far. Many forks in the past couple months.

Anyhow we'll see if this guy can stay around longer than Mr. Spread. Certainly though we'll eventually see a legit Dev with a legit Darkcoin clone, right? Spreadcoin Dev disappears during masternode testing. Ecash flames out before even starting up.

Posted 11 days ago before BCR became a 10-bagger....

Welp, guess where it'll be 10 more days from now after Banknodes are live and revolutionizing crypto....

These Banknodes will pose no threat to Dash and are in fact an advertisement for Dash's masternodes.

Chart looks fantastic, like Dash's.

Its isn't an material, but more close to an 'machine'... Bitcoin is only an experimental concept and dash is the evolution of bitcoin,more mature and more solid,build for an massive utilisation/adoption. Bitcoin isn't.


We are on technology sector,don't forget it,something absolutly new can take over the market if it viable.
