I do not know the specifics of how MimbleWimble works, but like XMR, transaction history and metadata is no longer public. Your trace of coins are effectively evaporated when you move coins over MW to another wallet from your “compromised” wallet, and from there you convert to XMR/move to another LTC wallet and pay merchants who accept LTC without MW. Obviously, basic OPSEC is expected but other than that the technology is supposed to work fairly well.

You could also do a swap like LTC->XMR->LTC and spend it that way, losing some money in the process but soothing paranoia in return

You can just create two different accounts, both with MW on LTC and pass coins between them to break the chain. But yes you’re right, I wish it was opt-out instead of opt-in

Can we do one for LTC please? Arguably more private

If I say it here I might dox myself. I’d like for it to be a PGP conversation but I’m not quite there yet either (due to personal reasons). Sorry

Well, you’re right. If the provider I have in mind evaporates one day I’ll probably have to do that.

Just find an unit with unmetered bandwidth, why do you need dedi?

I do seed stuff (I downloaded a TV show of around 40GB last month and I’ve been seeding it since). It just keeps seeding at full speed till the time they throttle my bandwidth. Last I checked I was over 7 in ratio for that thing, but whatever. It works out because I don’t leech much

I will eventually move to a VPS provider who doesn’t mind public torrents (I’ll pay through XMR). This seems like a much better idea since my needs have diversified and I’d like everything together on one machine to save costs. There’s other ways to use your seedbox too (without root access) and seed stuff that people really need/are deprived of (vague description on purpose).

I still have one of their ECO boxes but it’s not doing much. I haven’t torrented anything in the last 2 months I think (didn’t find a need to).

Which plan? I used to use them too

I’m assuming your seedbox providers allows you root access to the server? Which provider is this?

If I have a node, can I use block explorers to check my transactions anonymously?

BTW, how would this work? Doesn’t XMR automatically obfuscate this?
