Bitcoin pseudonymity actively trying to be pierced. We need MaidSafe

[Melvin]

I can suggest to read this thread:

What about nodes sniffing data?

They would need to get to a node close to each person they want to snoop on. Never mind the enormity of the hash list this is extremely difficult (and can be made near impossible). The only way to find an IP now is to get close to that node, to figure out which node then you need to guess the ID the person uses for getting data (hint its not a username ). Then you need to be one of the 4 nodes close to that ID (which may change) and so on. It gets very mad very fast, to the point…
