Title: What are the privacy implications of using Electrum public nodes?
Post by: Bitcoin on Feb 20, 2022, 04:43 am
What are the privacy implications of using Electrum public nodes?

My (perhaps naive) understanding is that Electrum sends first n addresses to a single randomly-chosen public server to check balances.


If all addresses have balances, Electrum then sends next n addresses (and so forth).


Are all above requests sent to same single randomly-chosen public server?


If so, this means server can infer that all addresses are owned by same wallet.
