A malicious node can record your ip and associate it to a tx-id, tell you the transaction was confirmed while not and other stuff of that kind. The safest way would be to run a VPS in some datacenter which doesn't link it directly to you. Should you have any close friends using Monero, consider sharing a single VPS to "scramble" whose transactions pass through it and, on the fly, to reduce the monthly cost even if you can get a hold on a VPS for less than 5$ a month. | |
