 Improving Bitcoin Baselayer Privacy with Dandelion++

"Dandelion was first proposed for Bitcoin routing on the Bitcoin mailing list in 2018, and has since been improved in Dandelion++, Dandelion Lite and Clover, and has been implemented in privacy first currencies and protocols like Monero and Mimblewimble. On Bitcoin, the implementation of Dandelion was rejected due to Denial of Service concerns."

 I remember giving a talk about Dandelion at our local meetup in 2018. It was going to be an awesome privacy upgrade and coming soon. But shit's difficult. Perhaps soon?
