Deanonymization of Dero

Due to the recent (4+ months ago) discovery of an issue in the Dero code, it is now possible for anyone to access more data than previously thought. The presence of this design flaw (among other issues) has rendered Dero’s privacy effectively non-existent for nearly all current transactions, forever. While fixing the Dero code and releasing a new version can improve privacy, this will only apply to future transactions.

We've been working on the deanonymization of all Dero transactions for some time (more info on our X account).

More than 99.4% (2.67M) of all transactions have already been deanonymized, but the remaining ones will take more time.

If you want to help us deanonymize the remaining TXs, feel free to download the client and join the fun! πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’»πŸš€
