Show Notes

"One issue with Bitcoin’s privacy, the ability to receive funds without giving up valuable information, is addressed with 'silent payments.'" - Shinobi Today we dive back into privacy with payment codes, BIP47, how exactly it works, and then the recent proposal from Somsen on "silent payments" that takes this even a step further to limit the data load on the chain itself. Some really fun tricks here that help give much needed privacy to those who need it most. Listen to find out more.
