| Abstract |
|
Mobile devices play an increasingly important role in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, yet their privacy guarantees remain unstudied. To verify transactions, they either trust a server or use simple payment verification. First, we review the security and privacy of popular Android wallets for Bitcoin and the three major privacy-focused cryptocurrencies (Dash, Monero, Zcash). Then, we investigate the network-level properties of cryptocurrencies and propose a method of transaction clustering based on timing analysis. We implement and test our method on selected wallets and show that a moderately resourceful attacker can correlate transactions issued from one device with relatively high accuracy.

This 2019 paper did a survey and security analysis of different Android mobile applications for Bitcoin, Dash, Monero, and Zcash. The popular Monero wallet Monerujo was reviewed. The paper goes on to investigate the network-level properties of cryptocurrencies and propose a method of transaction clustering based on timing analysis.
