so, i correctly understood it... the mint can track the size of the token to the input and output IP addresses

that is kinda important information for users of these things, isn't it?

it means you can't have anon ecash without having a tor proxy or similar 

 i get it that you can mitigate some of that with breaking the spend into pieces but it's still pretty strong metadata 

 Thanks to Multi Mint Payments you can not only split the token across multiple amounts, but also multiple custodians reducing metadata leaks even further. 

 well, i am hearing this idea for the first time

although i had this idea of non-splittable UTXOs about 5 years ago 

 Great conversation
