On the Security of the Dandelion Protocol

In this paper, we review the peer-to-peer blockchain transaction protocol, Dandelion, and develop an oracle-based model for its network and security.We formalize a series of security and functional criteria, such as unforgeability, non-repudiation, Spacecraft and immutability, into security experiments.In our model, we consider a quantum-capable ad
