If I recall, there is a bug in Monero were your XMR could be traced when you send monero within a short period of time. If I recall one should wait 2 hours or 10 blocks?

    Is the 10 block lock time there to prevent double spend and leaking any of your transactions?

      Its there to prevent double spends and block reorgs that would break where ring inputs are. The biggest reorg in several years was a 3 block reorg which isnt to bad

        I can confirm this finding. My log shows 1 reorg of depth 3 since August 2021. In total my log shows 326 reorgs since then with 325 of them being 2 blocks deep.
