The decentralized digital currency Bitcoin presents an anonymous alternative to the centralized banking system and indeed enjoys widespread and increasing adoption. Recent works, however, show how users can be reidentified and their payments linked based on Bitcoin’s most central element, the blockchain, a public ledger of all transactions. Thus, many regard Bitcoin’s central promise of financial privacy as broken. |
