## Privacy recommendations

- Operating a node that listens on multiple networks (e.g. IPv4 and I2P) can help
|

strengthen the Bitcoin network, as nodes in this configuration (i.e. bridge nodes) increase
|

the cost and complexity of launching eclipse and partition attacks. However, under certain
|

conditions, an adversary that can connect to your node on multiple networks may be
|

able to correlate those identities by observing shared runtime characteristics. It
|
||||
is not recommended to expose your node over multiple networks if you require
|
||||
unlinkability across those identities.
