    Monero breaks linking by using 15 decoys and one real transaction. So anyone trying to figure your transaction out only has a 1/16 chance and if they go the wrong path they will have 16 other paths to follow. Like a maze, there are tons and tons of dead ends but only one correct way out

      Interesting. And how does the system knows who got the real coins? 15 dummy accounts and one real? And can it be backtracked if a dedicated agency in possession of a heavy wrench convinces my arms dealer to give up his keys? Another thing to read up.
