Encrypted P2P connections are important because it means passive network spies, |
|
|
|
such as ISPs, cannot tell what nodes are communicating to each other and also |
|
|
|
prevents certain attacks against privacy at the network level, such as looking |
|
|
|
for which node was the first to relay a transaction. Bitcoin has no protection |
|
|
|
against this which is why it's trivial for network spies to tell which node |
|
|
|
(and hence which IP address) created a certain transaction and hence which |
|
|
|
IP address owns which addresses. |
