Title: [ANN] BitMixList.org - Best TradeOgre Alternatives - Bitcoin Mixer List
Post by: NotATether on December 11, 2023, 02:52:26 PM
https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/11/27/b0HOG.png [BitMixList] (https://bitmixlist.org) Quick Links [Mixers] (https://bitmixlist.org/#mixers) & [Exchanges] (https://bitmixlist.org/#exchanges) & [P2P Marketplaces] (https://bitmixlist.org/#p2pmarket) & [ScamWhammer Lookup] (https://bitmixlist.org/#scamwhammer) https://bitcointalk.org/Themes/custom1/images/english/new.gif & [Letter Verify Tool] (https://bitmixlist.org/#letter-verify) [Onion] (http://kmzvdt7443fqisu27xw3saxv7rn2pmgx33zd2cy54ev2mbba2xjoziqd.onion/)
Want to list your site? Go here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5477452.msg65414646#msg65414646).


11 days later, it is finally complete!

BitMixList (https://bitmixlist.org/) is a single-page site with a directory of mixers on it that's constantly updated. Think LeGaulois' topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2827109.0), except it lists all kind of privacy services like kycnot.me.

If you were a TradeOgre user before it shut down, there are many alternative exchangers which you can use in this section. (https://bitmixlist.org/#exchanges)

It is lightweight, and requires no javascript! (well except for the "Back to top" button, but if you can't use JS, you probably don't need that anyway  :))

There is also a (very long) history of mixing and mixers on Bitcointalk, and explanations on how mixers work (and break) where they cannot be locked or archived.

I believe this is the most comprehensive website about bitcoin mixers ever assembled. Nothing else comes close to it, not even Wiki pages.

Go bookmark the page so you don't lose it, while the Google SEO works its magic.

This thread is *not* self-moderated. Whether this thread stays or not is admin's discretion, but I'm not going to delete anyone's posts myself.

Onion link: kmzvdt7443fqisu27xw3saxv7rn2pmgx33zd2cy54ev2mbba2xjoziqd.onion

UPDATE 2024-01-01, posting links to mixers is no longer allowed. Therefore, in order to avoid running afoul of the new rules, I recommend people do not recommend specific mixers when writing a post about it. Instead, they should tell people to look at a mixer list like this one or the bitlist.co website by icopress.

If anyone has any moderation concerns about this web resource, please PM me. I will be happy to talk.

All packages include complimentary testing, AML analysis, and live order placements at "shotgun KYC" exchanger services.

Mixers pay $100*(60-days in operation). The price goes down by $100 every day, so think about whether you actually need expedited listing before purchasing.

All exchangers pay $50*(60-days in operation). The prices reflect the significantly larger number of exchangers in the industry, and also the much higher risk a user faces when using an exchange compared to using a mixer.

Disclaimer: Any platform can be compelled by law enforcement to freeze and seize stolen cryptocurrency, even if they are listed under BitMixList. However, no service listed will ever ask you for KYC except in that condition.

I think in the future we will see and identify anyone trying to constantly shill for certain mixers, I mean some mixers might hire a shill service to have a bunch of strangers coming here and discuss about certain sites that has a directory like yours. This is not about whether it's a good idea to have such directories or not, this is more about malicious actors trying to bypass the ban.

However I think having a page dedicated for mixers in general is useful as long as it has no malicious intent behind it and stays informative without advertising for a certain service.(such as your site).

Good job.

Great job, mate. More lists by independent users means less chance for one of them to hide a phishing link somewhere.

How about adding some extra metadata about each mixer, like what mixhub does? Stuff like their Bitcoin address used for LoG signing (very necessary for double verification and exit scam prevention) and CDN used.

Whether this thread stays or not is admin's discretion, but I'm not going to delete anyone's posts myself.
I believe theymos said it's fine.

Uh oh.

Can you send me a screenshot? Also also tell me what browser you used. Because I can't seem to reproduce this on my end.

Does it work with a VPN? I can spin up a temporary proxy and let you try connecting through that (to rule out any ISP problems). Also is your computer time set correctly - as too much drift can cause this error form as well?

The HTTPS certificate and web server config is auto-installed by Hostinger.

I think you should include official onion links for each website next to the clearnet links.
Another thing I would add on top of the page is date when last update of information happened, as we know how things quickly change in this business ;)
Mixhub.to is also doing a nice job with his list, and I see he has no plans for long term updating, so maybe you two could work together on this.

Nicely done, sir! I've bookmarked it and I've also done a complete save, just in case.
It will be a very good source of information for many, and being so simple it could go very high in search results (maybe ref links is the next step?  :D :D j/k)

Maybe theymos changes his mind and then you'll be able to also link ANN pages from bitcointalk. One can hope...

I appreciate the great job done on the website OP.

I would like to point out something about exch.cx, The exchange was founded somewhere in 2016 and not 2023 if you look at how old their ANN is and the profiles that represent them in this forum. For some reason, they abandoned the old domain they started with exch.cc and now use exch.cx

Post by: NotATether on December 12, 2023, 08:35:37 AM
OK, there is a known issue when connecting to the site from Tor Browser.

But using New Tor Circuit for this Site button seems to fix it (if not, do it enough times).

Meanwhile I have made a hidden service that does not have this problem: kmzvdt7443fqisu27xw3saxv7rn2pmgx33zd2cy54ev2mbba2xjoziqd.onion

@TryNinja

Maybe another time I will add metadata. I did not really find it necessary at first.

@Bitcoin_Arena

Good to know. I was unaware of the exch.cc domain.

The site design is clean, adding the night mode feature, and better control over list arrangement. I do not know how the arrangement is currently done, but there must be a standard of differentiation between these services, in addition to the latest login time for these services to ensure that they are not closed or turned into scam.
Add a warning that Wasabi may collect data from users.
add for Private DEXs list a self-hosted section.

I cleared the cookies and the error still exists, so it appears that there have been modifications in the backend and access to the server has been restricted.

My first thought after reading about the impending mixer ban on Bitcointalk:
Phishing sites are going to love this change! Google has shown ads for fake mixers for years.
I don't think your topic linking to a list of mixers will survive on Bitcointalk after January 1st though. After that it'll have to compete with the exising lists, and as far as I've seen in the past, many of them advertise phishing sites.

you missed

Non-promotionally linking to a mixer's ANN thread will be allowed, whether or not it's a defunct mixer.
I don't know, but banning signatures and all promotional activities would be enough.

There's also this part:
- Mixer URLs will be automatically wordfiltered out, but you can still discuss mixers otherwise.
I guess we'll have to see how compatible that is with linking to a site that lists all URLs.

however, theymos understood that it could not be too restrictive, so he eased some of the rules. I believe that over time the most constructive solution will be defined.
Here is the most direct answer from theymos about mixer collections like this.
could you tell me whether my service's thread that ony lists and discusses mixers will be allowed here or I should wipe it before January? The thread in question: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5476445

It's OK.

BitMixList is under attack by web hosts. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5477673.msg63315871#msg63315871)

For now, the domain has been moved to BitMixList.org and is registered using Porkbun's domain registrar.

I'm going to have to wait out the transfer period before I can transfer the dot com domain, since it's so new.

The table of contents may have been broken during troubleshooting. I will fix that soon.

Even more reason why this should not be banned from bitcointalk.

On the contrary, this is one of the reasons listed by theymos for banning mixers:
~ allowing them has become too risky/problematic, and it's only going to get worse. Imagine ~ our service providers suddenly banning us due to being "associated" with mixers

Onion link still works fine for me.
I heard good things about Flokinet that is located in Iceland, they have strict no-kyc policy and they won't ask you for any personal information.
Last time I checked they are still accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency payments.
There are few other alternatives available so dyor before choosing next host, you don't want to move data all the time ;)

Service providers should not be banning people for posting links to resources, as long as they aren't darknet and illegal (mixers are not illegal [yet]). Besides, the forum is hosted in US jurisdiction, which means as a content provider, they should not be held liable for its users.

I do not know what hosting provider is used by the forum, or whether it is managed by Cyrus, but you'd certainly expect them to choose one that isn't sensitive over cryptocurrency, considering that there haven't been issues in that regard for years. And cloudflare never bans crypto sites AFAIK.

Although I will probably get rid of ads.

@dkbit98 I don't think I'm going to be migrating anytime soon after this, but for now I will probably turn on Cloudflare for better caching and so I don't expose my hardware to DDoS.

Now you're looking at it from a moral point of view. That doesn't matter for (most) businesses, which means some providers will be more restrictive than others.

I'm glad to hear that the site is back up and running.  Out of curiosity, who is currently hosting it? I hope you don't mind me asking.

And, since there are active links to mixer sites, did you check with the new host to make sure that's allowed in their terms of service? I hope this transition goes smoothly for you and you don't run into any more surprises.

Congratulations NotATether.

I have just one comment for now.

I think swap services are not DEX. For example, exceto.https://exch.cx/is a great swap service but it is centralized,  isn't it?

Esit: maybe you could use "non kyc exchanges/swaps"

Currently, it's running on my dedicated server on Leaseweb, who are very lax to the point of allowing torrents - not that I did that the last few years.

Many mixers in the past got DDoSsed shortly after they posted on Bitcointalk. I can only speculate why: Take out competitors? Phishing sites wanting full attention? Force them to use Cloudflare?

As theymos wrote:

But this is not a mixer service, this is just a list of mixers.

Why would anyone be so interested in that, especially when there are so many other lists on the internet doing fine?

Just a guess: there are also lists that include phishing sites, and if there's a site that might move traffic away from them, that site gets attacked.

Sorry to hear this but I know some guys who own regular website unrelated with bitcoin and it get's ddos attacks all the time.
Shutting down websites can be profitable, but some people are doing it for fun, believe it or not.

I was wondering, is it possible for you to work like how google does the job? I mean I would like to have a banner on your site with "dig the pig" written in bold and have all my referral links for mixers included, then I could wear your site's sig. And you could also get a percentage from my income. How about that? 😂

BitMixList and the onion site are back online

Sorry for the long delay, I had detected a DDoS attack on the server hosting the website, so I was busy moving it to new hosting.

Meanwhile the hacker continues to waste his money and resources DDoS'ing dead hardware. If that's what he wants to do then by all means, keep hammering it  :D

Below is a graph of my old server and you can see he is throwing 500 Mbps at me. The upload traffic was mitigated by using a firewall. Anyway like I said it still looks like they are attacking the unused IP address. I wonder for how long though :)

In addition, at least two dozen mirrors were created to guarantee site availability in case the main site goes down. I am constantly looking for more mirrors to chuck this on, as it is less about the mixer ban now and more about free speech.

I was. But somehow they were still able to get a hold of my IP address. Exactly how they did it I don't know. Once they had it then they could send as many Layer 3/4 packets as they wanted since Cloudflare doesn't protect you from that. At least the free version doesn't, it only does layer 7 protection.

There was a brief (<12) hours period when I was using my default nameservers instead of cloudflare, but that was right after I registered the .org domain, so either they were very fast and alert, or they used another trick.

Glad to know that the site is back. I checked it and saw a well-packaged website that is simple, yet contains some of the most important information about mixers. It is a sad reality that restrictions will soon be placed on mixers in this forum but I will heed your advice to bookmark this page because it is priceless. The idea of updating the information on the website means that one will access the current information. NotATether has always been a tireless Bitcoin promoter, I remember the Debunking Bitcoin's energy use campaign (https://bitcoincleanup.com/). Keep up the good work sir.

You probably leaked IP somehow by mistake, or some g0v was doing this attacks with unlimited resources.
I don't think that your case is anything special, as I heard many people reporting something similar recently, maybe they are gearing up for cyber-attack circus show.

Post by: NotATether on December 29, 2023, 01:26:31 PM
As we approach the new year, I am reasonably confident that this site will survive the January 1 mixer bans. Despite saying "Bitcoin Mixer List" in the title, and just writing that by itself does not break any rules by the way, the actual list of mixers is less than 1.3% of the site's content in words.

Ads have been binned across all sites. After thinking about it, I do not want to create a conflict of interest. I will not be running any ads there for the foreseeable future.

As a blog page, BitMixList does not meet criteria 1) and 2) of a mixer:

Something is considered a mixer if it meets all of these requirements:
 1. It has a feature advertised for taking property, improving its privacy somehow, and then returning roughly the same type of property.
     a. Even though you can sometimes use non-mixers to mix coins by depositing and then withdrawing, this doesn't make it a mixer because this is an incidental use of the service; the service isn't advertised as privacy-enhancing.
     b. If a site is not primarily a mixer but has a mixer function, such as a mixer function on a gambling website, then the whole site is considered a mixer.
     c. If the site takes coins, gives you a possibly-transferrable IOU, and will convert this IOU back into mixed coins much later, then the temporary conversion into a different type of property does not prevent it from being considered a mixer.
     d. If the site internally converts your deposit into other things as part of its mixing, but ultimately the point of the product is to get your original type of property back, then that's a mixer, not an exchanger.
 2. It is possible for the mixer to steal property passing through it. Assume that the sender does everything as correctly as possible. Also assume that no miners/verifiers on the base-layer cryptocurrency are evil. But assume that every other actor involved is evil (everyone able to vote in a DAO, every coordination server, every counterparty, every member of a multisig, etc.). Ignore short-term software bugs which are expected to be quickly fixed.
 3. The service does not collect KYC-type info from all users. (This is not an endorsement of KYC generally, or a condemnation of non-KYC services generally. Non-KYC services of other types are still allowed, and in many cases they are a good idea.)

Posting URLs to this site should be fine, although I advise against recommending the names of individual mixers directly on Bitcointalk, to stay on the safe side (posting mixer URLs is already not allowed).

Now you are safe, lets see who is gonna attack your site from now on, though they might do it, but eventually they will run out of money and drop it. And if there is any issues in the future I'm sure you will find sponsors/donation supporters to keep this up. 😉

This site is very well made. I can tell there was a lot of effort put into providing the best information possible. There is, however, some inaccurate information I found while skimming through the coinjoin section.

Quote
Whirlpool is designed to be decentralized, meaning there is no central coordinator overseeing the mixing process.

Whirlpool coinjoins are centrally coordinated, just like Wasabi's. An article published on Foundation Devices' website contains a great summary on how Whirlpool works:

The most common type of Coinjoin is known as an ‘Centrally Coordinated’ one, where there are often many participants in each transaction. An example of this is the Samourai Wallet Whirlpool implementation. In this type of setup, multiple users connect to a central coordinator which acts as a the central authority between all participants....

NotATether, do you think that the mixer who tried to upgrade trust in his service through a staged case still deserves a place on this list?
I think about this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5479766.0)

Or at least you could add another field in the table with a warning and a link to the scam accusation thread.

At the moment it only mirrors the main page, without images. How can I best keep everything updated?

Much appreciated. That's what happens when you are forced to create dozens of mirrors >:(

It's a single-page site so you should use something like wget --mirror -np -k ...other options you want... https://bitmixlist.org to get all the resources including images, css, scripts from the main site.

I just found out this thread because examplens recommended the site on some thread on service discussion and i tried to search the site if available in this forum and i was right.

I suggest to make a repo in github to include the list, and let the community to fork it then just sync it later once there's a new list added/updated. This way it will be distributed how and what are the good and bad service as of the moment, you can link back your site too in the repo so it will get the backlink it needs.

This is a welcome addition, especially after the 2024 rule change regarding mixing services on Bitcointalk.
Someone else already created something similar, but said they have no plans to maintain it. So, this will be the second mixer source I bookmark. It can come in handy to do some cleaning when the fees drop.

I have two suggestions.

1. Please add dark mode if you can.
2. It would be nice to have some ratings for the services, but I understand that it could be difficult to add without sounding biased.

Good News:

I have finally gotten hold of the BitMixList.com domain after transferring it out, and it now redirects to Bitmixlist.org.

Other updates set to commence in the next few days.


Title: Re: [ANN] BitMixList.org - Bitcoin Mixer List
Post by: NotATether on February 12, 2024, 02:08:18 PM
New updates are being rolled out across the BitMixList mirrors.

Changelog:

- Puremixer clearnet link is removed because it is dead. TOR link stays for now.
- Add notice under Puremixer that they do not give you a letter of guarantee - later I decided against removing the entry entirely because I'm not sure whether most people will agree that it is an "future exit scam" as was written in the scam accusation for it (not linked here), only based on the fact that there is no letter of guarantee. Nevertheless, you are strongly advised against using any exchanging service (DEX, mixer, anything) that doesn't give you a letter of guarantee.
- Added another mixer which I forgot to add last December.
- Fixed description of Whirlpool - it is using centralized coordinators.
- Added the onion link and bitcoin donation address. For now, if you want to sponsor this website, make a donation to the address at the bottom of the page.

I still see some bot traffic but it is manageable and non-destructive.

@NotATether, so far what we have on the list are mixers which were launched here and most of them vetted by forum members. In the future, will you start listing mixers that will be launched or announced elsewhere?
For example, I have seen some mixer announced in another forum, but it's still new so hard to know if it's genuine just yet.

I have received some PMs from new mixers asking me to add their links, so basically I'm trying to add every single resource as long as it's not dubious or a fraud service. Hence why things like Sinbad are not here.

Congratulations.  Your website is growing fast.

I found a small bug in mobile, caused by a large word link in the mirrors list

This long mirror link
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/02/19/YPLl5.png

Is causing this:
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/02/19/YPh6z.png

You can fix forcing the word (link) to break in the UL tag that list the mirrors

Code:
<ul class="wrap">

.wrap {
  overflow-wrap: break-word;
}

This works, just tested.

Thanks. I'm going to add this in the next update.

PS - there has been some maintenance on the onion site. Now there are new Proof-of-Work and other anti-DDoS measures used on it. Please update Tor Browser to the latest version in order to open the Tor site properly. Although the browser usually takes care of that by itself, without you having to do anything.

Watch out for this PM's.
I would be very careful with any new mixing services as you can't really prove if they are a fraud or not.
There is also one new scam accusation that was posted few days ago but I can't really say if this is genuine or not.

I felt very safe using mixers which had active campaigns in bitcointalk and community support here.

Some moved campaigns to altcoinstalks, but most stills lacks ann and representatives

It  will be hard for new mixers to establish if they don't do that imo

Actually I tried creating the DNS entry for this subdomain and the IP address you posted here some days ago, but when I pointed my browser to the website, it just showed the text: "webserver is functioning normally".

I set it to knightmbmirror.bitmixlist.org for some reason, though I will probably get rid of the bold part if that's the problem. It turns out that that was the issue, and pointing to knightmirror should work fine now. By the way, how are you updating the mirror?

All:

Please be advised that you may see a "Google Safe Browsing" warning when going to BitMixList.org on a Chrome-based browser. Apparently, I was told by Google Search Console that the page has "harmful content" though it doesn't say what. Note that BitMixList is a single-page site - there is no Wordpress backend or the like, and there is only a single HTML, CSS and JS file. Additionally, there is no downloadable content on the site.

The chance of you seeing this warning is very low but if it comes up (I have not been able to make it display), you can disregard the warning.
RESOLVED.

This does not affect any of the mirrors.

Could this be some new type of attack on your website?
I am not seeing any harmful content warning, but I think that only shows if people or bots report website for some reason like scam, phishing, etc.

One small correction,
You added AgoraDesk, eXch, Tradeogre and other exchange services under the list of Private DEXs, but most of them are not decentralized.
Only Bisq is DEX from that list, so maybe you should rename from DEX to Exchanges, if you want to put them all together.

I think "private exchanges" would be better but yeah I get what you mean.

It will be corrected in the next update.

Oh and also - Google has removed the misleading warnings now. So at least I know there's at least one support center in Google that is not manned by robots.

You score a 7 / 100. The first mixer from your list that I checked scores a 1 / 100 (and has a "review" with a referral link). It looks like a bunch of automated BS.

The site "explains" it (I'm not adding a link because I don't want to reward them with another backlink):
Quote
Entire Review bitmixlist.org
Company Review

The identify of the website owner has been hidden. This may be done for a valid reason as spammers use this information to email website owners. Unfortunately is also makes identification of the owner difficult. We prefer if the website does show his true identity.

We found markers on this website promising an easy way to make a profit. Our experience is that investment opportunities with high returns are also likely to have a very high-risk portfolio. There does not exist a "guaranteed income" or "secure profit". Please invest time to research this company further before investing your money. Our article "High Risk Financial Investment Scams" can help.

Cloudflare is a Content Delivery Network (CDN) Platform that does not offer web hosting services. It simply offers web performance and security. Additionally, Cloudflare collaborates with IBM Cloud and Google Cloud Platform, which implies that the three businesses have many well-known clients in common. The Domain Name Service (DNS), one of Cloudflare's most well-known products, integrates security measures like a Web Application Firewall and a DDoS-blocker. Because of the platform's solid reputation, many reliable organizations and platforms, including ScamAdviser, use it; nevertheless, like anything else on the internet, scammers can still exploit its services.

Webshop Review

The Tranco ranking of this website is low. This can be considered low in relation to other websites from the website's country. If you think this website should be very popular, please invest additional time in researching the company as this is suspicious. For a smaller or starting website a low ranking can be considered normal.

Cryptocurrency related information and/or services were detected on this website such as digital exchanges, bitcoin-mining or investments into crypto-coins. These digital valuta services are very difficult to judge. Unfortunately, many crypto-sites prove to be scams. We recommend you read our article How to check if a cryptocurrency site is legit or a scam..

This website was set-up recently. As a result, we advise you to really take the time to check this site out before you interact with it. You can use our blog post "How to recognize a scam" to do so. Scam sites are often very young. They are removed from the web after a couple of months as too many consumers leave negative reviews and social media comments. Till that time, they will try to scam you.

Technical Review

The company seems to support payment methods that offer a "money-back guarantee" such as Alipay, Mastercard, Paypal, and Visa. While this money-back guarantee is not 100% secure, it does allow consumers in most cases to get their money back if the product is not delivered or proves to be fake.

We identified an SSL certificate meaning that the data shared between your browser and the website is encrypted and cannot be read by others. SSL certificates are always used by legit and safe websites. Unfortunately scammers increasingly also use SSL certificates so it is no guarantee that you are visiting a reliable website.

This is probably an auto-generated bunch of nonsense. Some AI tool that checks basic things about site and domain settings.
For example, the SSL certificate is now free on almost all hosting services and only a complete amateur will not add it, because it does not require any knowledge. Everything is done in a few clicks.
With or without Cloudflare, there is no indicator whether a website is a scam or not.
They automatically write an analysis for the webshop, even though the site does not have to have one.

They and similar services do more harm than good with these AI scam analyses and deserve a rating of 1/10 because only makes it harder for those trying to do their research.

I wouldn't pay much attention, but you can always register and complete manual verification, if you want to pay for this.

PS
I just scanned bitcointalk forum and it has almost perfect score, but it was much lower results for some other random websites I tested.

I'll leave this here (regarding Ym/Cr) [google translator should do a great job through the camera].

XSS is a kind of closed party for hackers, a forum where about 500 users are always online (https://ibb.co/zZ79TJT) (on Bitcointalk it’s even less). Almost all commercial activities are insured by deposits (deposits that are kept by the forum administrators). As a result, any accusations of fraud are considered by the treasurers (I think you understand that these people have a basic understanding).

YoMix used this forum for advertising for many years and had a deposit of 1 Bitcoin. In addition, the YoMix thread was pinned in the services section. This whole conversation boils down to the fact that after the accusation of fraud was published, and after the treasurer of the forum examined the case, the deposit was confiscated and yomix was banned.



In addition, moderator  xss "bratva" notified everyone that shortly before this, the official YoMix account withdrew a deposit from another forum called "Exploit" (any mixer who wanted to conduct marketing activities had to make a deposit that would cover any claims).

Quote

Among other things, user grozdniyandy reported that the YoMix domain was on the same IP address with some other mixer domains, including digital ones (from which we can conclude that they belong to the same person). A little more than 2 weeks later, the same user reported that YoMix had changed the server.

Quote

Quote

There are some more mentions on Reddit, but I think the complaints posted on xss are enough.

Quote

In addition, delving into this case, I was able to talk to some people whose level of knowledge is colossal. And they shared information that sinbad was not confiscated by the authorities, saying that this was just a very well-developed trick to relieve tension. Which is quite logical... considering that chainalysis reported that after the closure of sinbad that YoMix's turnover increased 5 times. Secondly, this was the first time that a stub was placed in the site’s corporate style (some people appreciated LZ’s humor).

Thanks for posting screenshots with more information, but I don't understand this last part.
I can't be certain what exactly happened and if something was staged and fake, but I looked for government sources in the time that incident happened.
There was official statement from US state department claiming they sanctioned and seized sinbad, and U think there was even a seizure number posted somewhere:
Quote
"The Federal Bureau of Investigation has seized the service in accordance with a seizure warrant pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 981 and 982 as part of a coordinated international law-enforcement operation."

But looking at this again now, and maybe it was just sanctioned, not actually seized.

This is interesting, the US government do not mention the word "seized", they used the word sanctioned.

Quote
WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctioned Sinbad.io (Sinbad), a virtual currency mixer that serves as a key money-laundering tool of the OFAC-designated Lazarus Group, a state-sponsored cyber hacking group of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK).

But I remember sinbad saying that they were still operational, even after all that, and then theymos banned the mixers.

I tend to not agree with this, Sinbad.io(not .onion) was seized and registration data for Sinbad.io similar to what happened with Chipmixer + we have a screenshot from the @fyodnederland account

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/04/03/VfXXI.png

Back-End and mixer Bitcoins were not confiscated.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/04/03/Vfdzd.png

As it seemed, they were planning to create .onion sinbad link and turned into darket-Mixer but and after the signature campaign was included in the sanctions list, they used Yomix instead.

I would say that what icopress claims is closer to reality than everything that was finally presented here.

Whoever is behind the @fyodnederland account knew things very well on Bitcointalk. The only address recognized as a connection to sinbad is the escrow address from the sig. campaign, with a fairly small amount of around $10k at the time.
The image used as the seizing page and also in @fyodnederland posts is from sinbad Price Prediction Challenge (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5472424.0) Used only once in this topic.
Not to mention how quickly the @fyodnederland account was registered to post all these things. I got the impression that they posted it here before the people behind sinbad found out that their site was seized.

The only similarity with chipmixer is that the index page on the clearnet site has been replaced.
Unfortunately, theymos banned them so fast, so we did not receive the promised explanation (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5416985.msg63244945#msg63244945), as well as the announcement that the service will be restored (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5416985.msg63245374#msg63245374).

I'm not sure if it's just a trick and in the ownership connection of these two mixers, but it certainly looks like a show for those who read Bitcointalk.

I do like the theory but there is one major thing stopping me from believing it and that is the official statement of the Dutch Financial Intelligence and Investigation Service (FIOD), their official website is www.fiod.nl, and the article regarding seizing Sinbad is found here https://www.fiod.nl/fiod-takes-large-crypto-currency-mixer-off-the-air/ which also contains the same image that was present in Sinbad's website.

The article explicitly says

Quote
The servers of Sinbad.io were seized in the Netherlands and Finland.

Quote
Dutch investigative agencies such as the FIOD will continue to crack down on this. This action aimed at Sinbad.io is a heavy blow to organized crime and also serves as an example and warning to founders and users of similar services.

Then posts the said image.

Strange enough there is no mention of it on the Finnish police website or any other place that is Finnish official.

FUD! This is a baseless information you received. Sinbad management was the most professional and client/customer/employee friendly management I have ever managed a campaign. They respected their clients, their signature campaign members, campaign manager, business partners with highest standard. They were transparent about the incident happened. They even made sure that they do not have any debt existed before they good bye and leave. There were no valid scam accusation has been seen yet (at least I have not seen any).

I also have no idea why you didn’t contact me about advertising, considering how long we’ve been working in the place.  :-\
Bad luck this time. By the way, other day I noticed Duelbits is advertising on Bitcoindata.Science, may be you can ask the same to bitmover?

It would be great if you could add a special page for all seized old mixers, I think it is important for us to track this and record history.

That's a great idea! But it can't be a separate page, as many of the sites are single-page variants. A section on the main page should do, but I will have to make it detailed.

Maybe you can create a separate section in the bottom of the page to be used just for seized mixers.
Things that should be included for this is archived link (to avoid original pages getting deleted), screenshot would be nice, and information about exact authority that performed a seizure.

In the wake of Samourai Wallet being seized (ugh), what do you guys think of me doing an investigation into the circumstances behind the seizure and posting them on the site?

It would have to be on its own page, of course, so that means only on the main domain, with the mirrors linking back to it.

It could potentially be a nuisance if the DDoS attackers come back, but AFAIK I don't believe that I have leaked the IP address this time around.

I honestly do not think that such things as any investigation are the reason for a DDoS attack. For example, bitmover's website bitcoindata.science was also under attack, and there are no accusations or statements about any services on it. Just a few useful tools, mainly for Bitcointalk users.

You can do that, it would be interesting reading material, but didn't you say that you can't create separate pages? ;)

Note that it was not only Samourai wallet website that was seized, they also removed their Gitlab page, coordinator is down, and you can't even use it via Sparrow wallet.
I think that samourai old github page is still there but this is outdated code, and all keys previously generated by Samourai should be considered unsafe now.

Sparrow wallet with Whirlpool is not working anymore, so you can consider removing it from list, or moving in separate section.

That is correct, on most of the mirrors I cannot create separate pages due to their architecture, but the primary site, which is on my own metal, is currently serving simple HTML files and I could easily make it use a CMS instead.

In fact I was using Wordpress before the attack. But I think I will use another one.

As far as I know, every decent website in the internet suffers heavy ddos attacks.
This is why every (most of theem at least) big website has to run behind cloudflare/aws which are the most effective providers that can protect from those heavy ddos attacks...

If mixers, coinjoin wallets, and no-KYC services are supposedly being used to launder billions of dollars, it makes you wonder why they are not going after actual criminals but instead they go after software developers and are forcing anything related to privacy to shut down. Money laundering is just a pretense they are using to restrict freedom and increase how much control they have over people’s lives, just like how the 9/11 attacks were used to justify passing some of the most Orwellian legislation.

Because actually stopping crime costs billions of dollars, and they'd rather save money for themselves by going after easy, defenseless targets like developers. Not that this will fix the problem, and it's like putting a band-aid on a cut after the other band-aid fell off.

Since you mentioned the Orwellian legislation, the Patriot Act, you might be interested to know that they have recently renewed Article 702 of that thing - even going as far to tell employees to find any excuse to justify warrant-less spying on Americans (and me, I guess).

You can't have real decentralized exchange with quick web implementation, but I guess you can put ''DEX'' sticker on anything this days and call it decentralized ::)
Quick web swap usually means that it can quickly disappear and get seized one day.

Good point! Just like anything in life, big guys are always safe. Those who produce massive amount of drugs are always free but those who sell a thing or two get caught immediately.
It is just an excuse to say that mixers are used for money laundering and that's all. If they can detect and shut down the mixer, they can also track those who launder millions and billions of dollars and arrest all of them but instead, you know, bunch of excuses and they do whatever they do.

Just an easy and quick example: Launder money via JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank or via other bank. Guess, what? You'll get arrested but Mexican billionaire cartels will not get caught and also bank will continue business without an issue. Basically, it's okay if banks let big criminals to launder money but it's not okay for mixers.
The US failed to track more than $1 billion in military gear aid to Ukraine, wonder why? And no one gets arrested but as they brainwash people, many believe that cryptos and mixers are only used for evil.

If you really want a truly decentralized service then, participants need have an ability to download and run their own clients (nodes) and these kinds of DEXEs need to be promoted and made more popular because this is how we fight back against the ever-increasing Government threats vs this ordinary centralized "privacy enhancing" services that are disappearing very fast.

Take an example of Bisq, unstoppableswap or blockdx. They all need you to first install the appropriate software, and the good thing is that the source code is open, so you can review it if in doubt.

They promise never to freeze any coins from blacklisted addresses but will instead return them to the sender.

At first glance, they don't seem to be super professional and their site gives me strange vibes. Strange to see such an "unfinished product" promoting itself on the forum.

When I access the site, I see this message:
https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/06/05/cHzuq.png

Their support team is "available to answer any question".
But it looks pretty difficult at first glance:

Their ToS says:

When using Zeusmex, you must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. You agree not to misuse our services, engage in fraud or money laundering, or infringe on the rights of others.
But never says in which country they operate and respect "laws and regulations".?

They talk about "own liquidity reserves" but I was not able to find any mention of proof of reserves, and they don't tell if you can ask one if needed. Could be nice to have more infos in the FAQ, it is very empty for now.

They announced earlier on that they will be undergoing some sort of site maintainance. So let's give them some time to deliver
At the moment, our service is undergoing technical maintenance. All obligations to our clients were fulfilled before starting the maintenance. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. We will keep you informed about future updates.

I used to see similar lines with some Bitcoin tumblers, so I am not surprised. Maybe they put it there to help them from the legal perspective. More like a site stating that Persons under 18 are not allowed to use it, but they still do not verify if you are under 18 or not.

They talk about "own liquidity reserves" but I was not able to find any mention of proof of reserves, and they don't tell if you can ask one if needed. Could be nice to have more infos in the FAQ, it is very empty for now.
They promised to do this in their upcoming roadmap. At least that's what they said if I recall well.

New update has been pushed.

Changelog:

- Removed Tengri, MrStork
- Added ZeusMEX exchange (this website doesn't seem to be working right now for some reason)
- Fixed the Anonymixer onion URL to use http (at Anonymixer's request)
- Mixers are now sorted by creation year.

Thank you for the details! But my point was only that I find it strange to promote a service which is not ready to operate in a professional way.

Btw, since our conversation, it seems that ZeusMEX updated their ANN and ended their service for now.

ZeusMEX — instant cryptocurrency exchange.

Unfortunately, due to the financial losses of our investor, our exchange cannot continue to operate at the moment.

That was quick, lol

I noticed that now their Twitter handle (https://twitter.com/Zeusmex_com) is also now gone. It was on a few days back. Perhaps the maintenance messages was an indirect way of trying to make an exit. I just do hope no one got scammed in this whole thing

I was happy for yet another new no KYC exchange in the market, it's sad it ended that way.

Great addition. However, some of the info listed doesn't quite make sense. The "Platform" category lists coordinators as being either 'WabiSabi' or 'BTCPay Server'. WabiSabi is the name of the coinjoin protocol itself, and it's compatible with both Wasabi and BTCPay Server clients.

The 'founded' category is also misleading since the WabiSabi protocol wasn't implemented anywhere until 2022, so there's no way that a coordinator service could have preceded that date.

Do you guys think I should list whirlpool dojos too? Not the main one obviously, but others that still work. Are there still any wallets that even use dojos?

Sparrow Wallet pushed an update that removed Whirlpool in less than 24 hours after the Samourai arrests. As far as I know, there are no clients or coordinators operating for Whirlpool.

OK, that's good to know, so the Founded column is going to get eliminated I guess. It was only a rough estimate anyway.

The platform column however is supposed to identify whether the coordinator is using a Swagger API (the url /swagger/index exists on the api website) or if it's using a BTCPayServer API. In that case, I can replace "WabiSabi" with Swagger or OpenAPI or something.

Maybe it's even better situation now than it was in time of ZKsnacks, but I would be careful choosing what coordinators to use.
I don't know if this is possible but government and other malicious actors could create their own coordinator and use it for tracking and monitoring transactions.
It would be good if you could add live tracking to see what coordinator is used the most.

Live tracking would be very difficult to implement because it requires JS, and it would be unavailable for people who choose to use the website without Javascript. The best I can do is track the websites server-side but that would require me to add PHP and a database to the main domain, and I don't have plans to do that any time soon.

Maybe you could fetch daily status information from LiquiSabi page on twitter, or other similar sources.
This is not ideal solution and it can't be verified if information on that page is always correct and up to date, but it's still better than nothing.

It would be more logical to expect this kind of information from the current wasabi coordinator tracker like https://wabisator.com
Given that this is at a new beginning, many things still need to be implemented, maybe over time we will get more detailed monitoring from here.

Always verify that your letter of guarantee is from the correct address before you send coins to a mixer. There have been instances where the user receives a letter of guarantee, but it's signed by the wrong address! It is a classic scam attempt so be vigilant.

I might include the signing address of each mixer on the website in the near future.

New knowledge update!

Changes include:

- A shiny new dark mode
- Updated logo
- Removed WasabiCoordinator.io
- culled old mirrors (I'm still looking for suitable hosting for the Tor mirror).
- Added warnings next to Whir and Ginger Wallet, for different reasons
- Links back to BitList
- And the big change, now you can verify your letters of guarantee.

This last one is a major coup, and it's going to stop a lot of people from getting scammed if they use it. It is an anti-phishing defense you can use to make sure you are using the correct website.

It supports all major mixers with a few exceptions that are noted on the website.

My first thought: that's bad, never upload it anywhere but verify it locally! Then I saw this:
Quote
This verification tool runs locally on your browser and does not fetch data or even scripts from other servers.
That does make it convenient, especially since (I tested this) it also checks if the correct address is used for signing). But still, the user can't easily verify whether or not anything gets uploaded, so I'd still prever to verify any signed messages in my own Bitcoin wallet.

You can check in Chrome/Firefox DevTools to see if there are any XHR requests in order to verify that no data is transmitted over the network (besides advertisements).

Most people who are know how to use a mixer are probably aware of devtools, but I'll make sure to explicitly write it out on the website.

To be honest, I don't really see it as competition, as we both need each other. As you can see, I even have Kruw's coordinator listed even though I had called out his behavior a few months ago.

The biggest competition is with the governments, because they are the ones who want to shut all these resources down.

I still have a few more updates to do (offline coordinators, eXch - I'm still mad at how they are defaming me now) so I will probably figure out how to do with the toggle in a few more days.

Guys, I noticed some time ago that the domain for wizardswap was reported to cloudflare for phishing (wizardswap.io) and it was disabled - I don't know what that was supposed to mean.

But it seems that they have moved the domain over to DDoS-Guard.

So in order to avoid sending users to the domain which may experience interruptions, I have changed all the wizardswap links to their other official domain: wizardswap.pw.

I wonder if they have an ANN thread or some other presence though. All I know is that they have an email,and they are responsive there.

Or you could make a button on top with menu that opens this tool directly without any distractions.
Menu navigation could also be used for other purposes.

I don't know if this helps, but according to their twitter, It looks like they first acquired the wizardswap.pw domain as just an alternative mirror site. About a week after, they got DDoS attacks and the very next day Clouldflare showed both domains as phishing

If not, then carry on with whatever you were doing before.



@JeromeTrash that is good to know.

I still have to work on getting the RoyalMix verification working for the letter of guarantee verification. The infra is there, it just needs a public key to be inserted. So one of these days I will check that and will have it working.

And also I would like to add a quick link at the top right corner that takes you to the letter of guarantee verification tool immediately. I think that would be of great utility.

I agree with this.

Each service would have to pass a certain period of existence before being included in any "recommended" list. It has happened many times that a project shows all its weaknesses only after publication and actual use.
The list cannot be authoritative if every new service that aspires to be part of a certain industry comes automatically.
I am not saying that jokermix is ​​not reliable and that there is a scam behind it, but it is also too early to include it in the list with some mix services that have been online since 2018.

NotATether, what do the three red exclamation marks right in front of a service name mean? Site inaccessible? Questionable service?

It means the service is not recommended to use because it blocks most users (whir) or it collects your blockchain data (ginger wallet).

It means the service is not recommended to use because it blocks most users (whir) or it collects your blockchain data (ginger wallet).

Ginger wallet can't collect your data (assuming no synchronization methods have changed since they forked from Wasabi).

However, there is a service listed (Mixtum) that does collect your blockchain data by running a "thorough background check" on your incoming deposit. They threaten to use this blockchain data as a reason to confiscate the funds you deposit to their site:

September update published. New features:

- Added Godex, StealthEX, and Quickex.
- Now there's a warning that any mixer can shut down and take customers' money with them, even with a letter of guarantee.

Note: For some reason the Tor service on the onion host keeps freezing, and it only works properly after the service is restarted. I'm currently looking into this. For now, the onionsite is not working (again)

Edit: Maybe it's because of compression bombs in the Tor relay. Still not entirely sure what the root cause is, although the onionsite is working now.

Update: I just realized I forgot to add Trocador and TheChange yesterday. I'll get those listed in a few hours.

I also figured out that the onion site is only working when I have a script that is constantly accessing it from cURL on localhost every 60 seconds. It's not ideal, and I still need a way to make this a 'service' so that if I need to reboot the onion host it won't become inaccessible all over again.

If it's not a secret, in what percentage is your TOR site used compared to the same on clearnet?
I'm more curious how many users prefer Tor, I guess crypto people use it more compared to some other niches on the internet.

That's going to be a problem since I don't keep metrics for Tor or the mirror sites, only the clearnet primary domain.

It seems like I can reach the onionsite when going through tor's SOCKS5 proxy that's running on the same server, but I can't access the same link through Tor Browser.

I have no clue what's going on. It doesn't look like resources are exhausted.

There are onion hosting services on the darknet, but they are 3x more expensive than what I currently use.

I was more curious about how many people actually use Tor for informational sites like yours. You already spend a certain amount of time and resources on maintaining the onion page, I assume that the number of visits is not minor.

On the clearnet website you have onion official links to each service (at least those that have them), so copy/paste links is not a big problem if someone wants to switch to onion when using the service.

A few hours after I created the Yomix affiliate account, I was alerted here about their fraudulent activity, so the affiliate link was never at any point placed on the site. It is sitting proudly at 0 referrals, and I intend to keep it that way for the foreseeable future.

Additionally, before anyone asks, I had no referrals to RoyalMix, either. Though quite a few people clicked on the link.

I checked something about Yomix, they are still operational, it seems that people are still using their service for mixing. I haven't seen any complaints recently.
If I'm not mistaken, you have some unpaid commissions left from Tumbler, maybe that's why I thought of Yomix.

The only reason why they could demand this is if they don't want to be categorized as a private exchange.
I see that they reserve the right to ask for KYC from their users at some point, I guess the only reason they can be considered 'private' is because they support XMR.

I have never heard of a situation where a company/business has asked for their name to be removed from a list. One business asking another to remove their name from a website citing regulatory reasons might be something common in general but is definitely not common here.

When did it ever happen in this forum regarding threads mentioning companies? Out of curiosity, if you did not adhere to their request, what do you think they would have done next?

If they are so scared about regulations they should just close their exchange, not being pathetic and contacting every website that lists their service.

If it doesn't take up too much of your time, and you think it could be useful, it's always welcome to have such collections.

Have you done any research on how your site ranks in searches for certain terms? Perhaps your users came to the site looking for the p2p exchange option?

No, but I am on page 2 of Google for "bitcoin mixers list".

That might be a bit of a problem since the top results all show seized mixers and closed mixers, with only 1-2 active mixers, but most of my traffic comes from this ANN thread.

I am thinking about adding the following sites:

HodlHodl
LocalCoinSwap
Paxful
Noones
Peach Bitcoin (already on the site but it's in the wrong category IMO)
Binance P2P

Did I miss any?

And yes I know some of these sites require KYC, so I should probably note that and what the maximum amount you can trade is before hitting that threshold.

Edit: Robosats and Bisq would be moved to the new list too.

I don't think you can use Binance P2P (maybe even Paxful) without KYC verification, so there is no threshold to hit, unless you want to add them only because of sharing your ref links.
I am ok with services that offer kyc-free trading up to certainlimits, like Noones and similar exchanges.

those are the limits for Paxful, and as you see, you can't trade at all withoout passing ID verification first.


Noones on the other hand is better as you can trade up to 50k with only providing basic info

As a US person, I can't use Binance P2P :)

I do use Paxful, but it must be understood that unlike with e.g. exchanges, the only way to get local currency in many third world countries is with these large platforms because that's where the traders are.

e.g. where I'm living right now (not USA), I can get cash from Paxful and LocalCoinSwap (as well as Binance P2P but this is prohibited for me), but there are no offers on HodlHodl or Peach. And Binance.US does not have a P2P marketplace.

So this category is very different in that in many cases you can get kyc-free cash, but in some cases, all of the traders in the country you live in use kyc marketplaces.

As far as i know only Noones and LocalCoinSwap are currently available as a good alternative for Paxful, and they all work in similar way.

There is no need to justify use of KYC with ''third word countries''. ;)
All alternative platforms I mentioned have more than enough volume and traders from third world countries and worldwide.

good to see you finally added the P2P list.

i have a small suggestion tho, maybe consider removing Paxful from the list.
imo, ever since the drama last year between the founders and the CEO moving ship to Noones, Paxful has been going downhill. personally, i would not recommend it.

This has led me down quite an interesting rabbit hole:

- What is the difference between bitmama.io and bitpapa.com?
- Has anyone heard of this site? https://openpeer.xyz/
Or this one: https://www.911p2p.io/

There are some more I want to show you guys.

A brief analysis

- What is the difference between bitmama.io and bitpapa.com?
bitmama.io seems to be a Nigerian exchange, or is it just a creator from Nigeria. I assume that it is more legally adapted to that market. The site has a solid bio, which makes sense knowing that the Nigerian local community is one of the largest
bitpapa.com something similar, only from Russian territory.

It might not be a bad idea to ask their local boards for an opinion. Surely someone has experience.

- Has anyone heard of this site? https://openpeer.xyz/

https://skipshift.io/
A solid web developer builds a website during his lunch break. All of the above seem like someone's hobby projects to me. Searching through some basic tools, they seem like completely anonymous services and I certainly wouldn't risk money with them.

On 911p2p.io I saw the Dukascopy logo. I remember them from many years ago, they were very aggressive with spam on Twitter and in almost all languages. It is possible that some hobby idea turned into a business, but I would be careful here.

This is just my 2 cents.

In that case, I can add NonKYC.io - they appear to have a thread here somewhere - and there is also RetoSwap, a Monero P2P marketplace, basically the successor of LocalMonero.

I think with those two we should be fine. And I can kick out the KYC sites. In fact, I might even remove that column entirely, but then what are some other features that people care about when choosing a market?

They don't look very good to me and I would never use them, when there are other legit p2p projects.
If you want to add some real p2p exchange than consider adding lnp2pbot, this is strictly no-kyc and good option for people who prefer using Telegram (not me), and they got support from Human Rights Foundation project.
https://lnp2pbot.com/

and there is also RetoSwap, a Monero P2P marketplace, basically the successor of LocalMonero.
RetoSwap is a good one, old name was HavenoDex and this is actually a fork of Bisq exchange, it works almost identical.

i agree with @examplens on his analysis for the other sites. would not risk using any of them. i rather stick to the ones that have proven themselves.

i might consider using nonkyc.io if i have no better option, but absolutely not for big amounts. they have only been around for about 1.5 years, and their AML policies are super vague.
and since they don't do KYC, i wonder what they do with the coins they freeze due to "bad AML"?

I don't use p2p much so I'm not sure I can give a real suggestion.
But when it comes to instant exchangers, I think that two essential things are the KYC policy, of course, and whether the exchanges have their funds for liquidity or are only resellers. In that case, it is also important to know who is their liquidity provider and whose services they resell.

As for Retoswap, last time I checked they support other coins also, not only monero, there was USDT (on ethereum and tron), Bitvoin, Litecoin and BCH.
There are also a bunch of fiat payment methods, similar like in Bisq, and biggest volume is for monero trading pairs.

No, I don't list Tornado Cash. I have a history entry for it, but it's not on the list of mixers and I also don't link to it, as 1) I don't want to run into any trouble doing that and 2) it's not a Bitcoin mixer.

Rombomix is ​​still a fairly young service, but I would give them some time to show stability before making any recommendations. They almost had a problem, because the registry took away their .io domain, so they switched to a new .com, indicating that they still need to overcome some basic issues.

Their domain got suspended? They just started out, that's ridiculous. How would it be possible to scam someone in that little time?
I don't think there was any scam here, there just wasn't enough time for it. The .io domain was suspended and taken away by the domain registry, which is quite strange.
Now things are complicated again because the new rombomix .com domain has been marked as risky by Metamask.

That's a good question. I'm not sure how much that mixer was used at all, except maybe for some testing. They've only been operational for maybe a little over a month.

What's interesting to me is that they registered a domain through Hostinger, which was taken away from them by the registrar. Later, they registered a new domain, but again through Hostinger.
Why use the same service that has already compromised your business once?
Plus, Hostinger doesn't accept cryptocurrencies as a payment method, they obviously don't care about privacy.

we call that being retarded. i would not be surprised if their servers are also hosted on hostinger, lol.

i swear i thought hostinger accepted crypto, at least that's what they say on the payments page (those fucking liars). https://www.hostinger.com/payments

Rombomix has been removed from the Metamask blacklist. Now it works without any warnings.

It should be noted that they have also implemented (or are still in the process of) a bitcoin mixer, so they are no longer exclusive to ETH. Now there is an option to mix ETH and BTC.

i swear i thought hostinger accepted crypto, at least that's what they say on the payments page (those fucking liars). https://www.hostinger.com/payments
I was also surprised when I saw that, I was also convinced that Hostinger accepts crypto as a payment method.
Maybe it was possible at some point, but they withdrew such an option in the meantime.

But I wouldn't use it for anything mixer related.

You'd think that after reading the warning on my site that people making mixers would stay away from Hostinger. But apparently that's not the case. A mixer that brings in thousands of dollars in revenue every month can afford offshore hosting, or even just a VPS at a no-name, Monero provider like Kyun. They don't need Hostinger's '79% off' offers.

Maybe they are using some third party provider that allows them to accept payment from many cryptocurrencies, and that appears during checkout process.
Interesting that on different page I found how they don't allow using their resources for mining crypto currencies:

only noobs fall for those domain and hosting companies that offer everything for cheap prices with fake discounts to lure you in, lock you into their ecosystem, upsell you things you don't need, and rip you off with crazy renewal prices.
they are recommended everywhere online only because they pay good affiliate commissions.

https://support.hostinger.com/en/articles/8560191-is-mining-allowed-at-hostinger

because they use virtual servers with shared resources, if you are using 100% to mine crypto, it will degrade the server performance for other users.
most hosting companies don't allow mining, even on bare metal servers, as it reduces the expected lifespan of the hardware lowering their profit margins.

I'm not sure, but I've tried accessing my account and creating an order from VPNs in Falkenstein (germany), Montreal, and Dallas/LA and I've always seen it. I technically don't qualify as a US user to them I don't think - I don't live there currently.

It's strange how crypto is not listed as a payment method on their help page (https://support.hostinger.com/en/articles/1583236-what-payment-methods-are-available-at-hostinger#h_c09f5aeca0).

There is some article from July 2024 talking about how they "opened" crypto payments with CoinGate, but I've been able to use crypto as far back as a year ago.

On a separate website.

Putting things like debit cards, servers, on a website that's about mixers is not good for marketing. There's only so much space I can put in this title, the website title, logos, etc.

I don't use analytics, so I don't know precisely which links you guys click on, but judging by my referrals (on those sites that do support refs), it seems that most people come here to check out the mixers.

- Use the correct website name for DreamMixer
- Add Telegram bots for each mixer in the table. (There are surprisingly only a few.)
- New Bitcoin unit conversion widget at the bottom of the page, powered by CoinGecko. Requires Javascript - it will not work on Tor with the default NoScript settings. Useful to anybody who wants to convert BTC to USD without leaving the page. It also preserves your privacy. (https://breachdirectory.com/blog/0-00001-btc-to-usd-keep-quiet-crypto-abduction-case/)

Yes, it now is. Thanks for the alert, but it would really be fair to acknowledge that they have been operating for over a decade now. Not so many privacy-oriented exchanges have gone that far.

Perhaps they deserve an honorable mention?  ;D

You never know which other privacy leaning instant exchanges they could inspire. Of course, the likes of fixed float are just rubbish.

Personally, I think it should also be a standard process for instant exchanges, especially privacy leaning ones. Otherwise, with so many phishing sites around, how is a disgruntled user going to prove that they deposited in the right address?

We have relaunched our platform under a new domain: exch.cx (https://exch.cx)

2. Note that our old domain (exch[dot]cc) is not operating anymore nor belong to us.

It seems that seven years ago, they did not even expect such success and that one day, they might become a target of phishing.

.cc or even .cx ... are not popular enough domain extensions, so even the registries did not keep them but released them for new registration. For example, for some .net domains I abandoned 10 years ago, one registry is still holding on auction.

In my opinion, if you have any sort of crypto related website, you absolutely must keep renewing the domains indefinitely.

For other sites it's fine to let them expire.

There are various and justified reasons why someone just left a domain.
For example, when exch registered the .cc domain for the first time, it is possible that they used their personal data during registration or even payment. Over time, it turned out that it was necessary to remain anonymous in that business, so they decided on a new restart. This includes terminating all connections with the .cc domain.

Just remember some mixers that, despite having a functional business, stopped working immediately after the arrest of the founders of Samurai wallet. The only logical explanation is that they were not completely anonymous when starting their business and did not want to risk a similar scenario.

That is if the website is active and in use then it renewal should be either yearly or annual. And in most time website developers takes the yearly plan to host their website. And depends on the storage capacity of the website. The cheapest hosting plan in my location last year was $4
For other sites it's fine to let them expire.

If the other sites are also important, the developer or the owner of the website will not allow it to expire before renewing the payment. But if it is not important then what you said is okay.
_the reputational damage from dealing with phishing sites is not worth it.
When a site was inactive for years and came back and change domain name and most of the features immediately then it should be under investigation. If it is only the features and not the domain name then we can say they have come back and they are upgrading the sit to meet up the modern plugins.

I see some exchanges which have the pairs I am looking for (xchange and chainswap). They also claim that they do not collect kyc data.

I will try them in a few weeks when btc price goes above 100-105k again.

With the sad exit of eXch, some exchanges that were pretending not to need KYC are now torturing users asking for the documents, proof of address and proof of source of funds. I personally don't think such services deserve to be among the likes of wizardswap.

As an independent entity, they do not require KYC, but are quite dependent on their partners, liquidity providers. As all their partners are KYC mandatory, there is always the possibility of a KYC request.

🔹 In the future there will be a function to choose an exchange directly on the site: KuCoin, Binance, WhiteBit.

It's not very useful to claim you're KYC free if you rely on partners who have a reputation of freezing unwanted transactions to perform your exchanges, or to function at all in general.

So unfortunately, they will have to go. Not through any fault of their own though. I just don't want people to get scammed by a site they found on BitMixList.

There is a noticeable phenomenon where certain exchangers offer a free AML check before creating an order. However, this, in some way, gives security to the users so that they will not lose their funds.
Also, if the user sends coins and the exchanger cannot handle it, the possibility of a refund is quite acceptable.
These are still not ideal solutions, but they are the closest to accepting that they are user-oriented.

We here as a respectable community should probably force user-oriented services.


So unfortunately, they will have to go. Not through any fault of their own though. I just don't want people to get scammed by a site they found on BitMixList.
As a third party in the whole deal, you cannot guarantee even the best service. There are always uncontrollable situations.

I was under the impression that they were a no-KYC exchange. Did the terms suddenly change?
The no KYC narrative sells faster and they thought the could bank on it forever until the partners started freezing funds and requesting for KYC.

So unfortunately, they will have to go. Not through any fault of their own though. I just don't want people to get scammed by a site they found on BitMixList.
It's a good decision. Most of the audience to your list could be people who hate KYC 100%, imagine their disappointment when they get requested for it after picking up the service from the site.

I don't even think that the majority of viewers hate KYC, they just want to avoid being "regulation-scammed".

PS. I haven't actually gotten around to updating BitMixList yet. Busy writing some history. It will be finished soon.

I have two announcements today.

ScamWhammer is making a comeback.

ScamWhammer (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5245383.msg54349560#msg54349560) is an old project of mine from my early days in the forum, that aimed to create one giant filter of crypto scam sites. It was abandoned for logistical reasons, but now it's going to be incorporated into BitMixList.

The expanded list will focus on phishing links of mixers, exchanges of all kinds, wallet software, and P2P software.

With just a few taps on your keyboard and a click of a button, you will be able to see whether the website is legitimate or not.

This feature will be added in a few days.

Eventually, SHA256 hashes and PGP signatures will also be supported for verifying downloaded software.

P.S. Expanded 2024-25 history will be added soon.



Announcing expedited listing for mixers and exchangers

BitMixList is a trusted web resource that has been running since December 2023, with over 5,000 unique views and over 20,000 non-unique visits during that time. Many people rely on the list to find safe services that will not scam them.

I am aware that some operators without forum ANN threads wish to get their sites listed.

Normally, after a project posts an ANN thread, I wait at least two months - among other things -  before adding a new mixer and exchangers.

In expedited listing, you essentialy trade time wth money. Eager operators (NO scammers/phishing sites allowed ever) are now able get their sites listed quicker. Below are the criteria for expedited listing:

  • All mixers (including altcoin mixers, Jambler): I must perform a manual mix on your website. Therefore the price is necessarily higher. See below table for reference. The letter of guarantee created by your mixer will be posted publicly on the website. Necessary in order to detect the output of "Stolen Coins" category!
  • Exchangers: I must always do a test BTC => ETH exchange in order to ensure that customers' funds will not be frozen whether by the service itself, or by liquidity probiders. Bitcoins sourced from eXch will be used for this purpose. A letter of guarantee or invoice will be publicly posted if available, otherwise screenshot of the exchange result will be posted.

All fees are to be paid in Bitcoin or Monero. The entire amount paid will be used for testing the mixer/exchange.

51$900$450
52$800$400
53$700$350
54$600$300
55+$500$250

All packages include complimentary testing, AML analysis, and live order placements at "shotgun KYC" exchanger services.

Mixers pay $100*(60-days in operation). The price goes down by $100 every day, so think about whether you actually need expedited listing before purchasing.

All exchangers pay $50*(60-days in operation). The prices reflect the significantly larger number of exchangers in the industry, and also the much higher risk a user faces when using an exchange compared to using a mixer.

Privacy is a human right, not a crime. Therefore, I will support the efforts of other services who also agree with this.

ScamWhammer is making a comeback.
Great idea for reviving this, and maybe you should thiunk about making it easy for everyone to contribute and send new scam websites for approval.
I would make it possible to export the list and import it in uBlock origin and imilar adblockers.

All fees are to be paid in Bitcoin only. The entire amount paid will be used for testing the mixer/exchange.
This is fine, but with rising issues with Bitcoin fungibility I would consider adding option for accepting alternative payments in privacy coins like monero.
It is ok to have expedited listing, but there is higher risk with all new services, so I would add small warning about that.

Best of luck with this new service.
I decided to test it with random mixer I found on internet search, and I received this message:

Code:
The URL wh__.to is not recognized in our database. Exercise caution and verify its legitimacy before using.

This is the first time I see this website, and I don't know if that is legit or scam service, but their domain was created on 25 May 2022

I tested another known mixing service and I received this message:

Code:
Warning: chip_____.com is a known SCAM or SEIZED crypto mixer. Avoid using this service!

Maybe you should add option for users to report scam services with more information, after that you can can investigate it more.

The particular site you are referring to used to be listed here but was removed due to their inability to provide even a letter of guarantee to users when the mixing session started.

Maybe you should add option for users to report scam services with more information, after that you can can investigate it more.

To whom? That is the question. As we've seen with eXch, most orgs aren't remotely interested in abuse email about scam sites unless it directly affects the claimant.

Uh, I can only imagine how much work and time this would take. I'm not sure one person's full-time would be enough. Even if this list deals exclusively with mixer services and scams from this industry.
I already have a long list of suspicious sites waiting to be checked, but I don't have much time to investigate.

To you, or it's better to say to BitMixList.org.
This could potentially be used as paid service of investigating mixing and other service and giving your risk evaluation.
If someone can create silly AML ratings for coins than I don't see why we can't have actual risk rating for services.

Friends, I have two announcements to make.

1. I am going to make translations of BitMixList. Initially in Russian and German (as these are the most popular localities browsing BitMixList behind the USA), but others will follow.

I will be looking for translators in a couple days for this.

2. I am planning a site redesign. It will still be largely Javscript-free, but the layout could use a bit of an improvement, don't you think? All anchor links will be preserved, but I will probably make a lot more pages and use a new template.

For translators, you can check here i believe it can be helpful. Also maintaining a JavaScript-free design will help ensure fast loading times and protect user privacy.

Great initiatives!

I am aware of an error users are facing when attempting to navigate to BitMixList (http 522) on clearnet. Please stand by while I resolve this.

In the mean time, please use bitmixlist.github.io

I have determined that the issue lies with a faulty server. I am currently provisioning a new one.

Update: server operation has been restored. I am considering using a load balancer for when things like this happen again, but the only problem is that the IP addresses are on two completely different networks, so a local LAN balancer would not be possible.

In your table you mention that Retoswap only supports monero. Maybe it was like that in the beginning but the exchange now also supports USDT, ETH, LTC, BCH, and maybe others.

There are two other no-KYC exchanges and marketplaces that you could consider adding to BitMixList:
- eigenwallet: decentralized bitcoin to monero atomic swaps.
- Vexl: a P2P mobile exchange for BTC trading

Some corrections for the table.

I think the Swamp (tor) link has hHttp.. so 2x H's.
Also I think the Swamp and Genesis Tor links are swapped.

Thanks for doing what you are, appreciated.

- Fixed the links for SwampLizard and GenesisMix

Regarding Trevoid's service - no website was listed, because they do not have one. Instead, I linked to their Bitcointalk ANN page which contains a link to the place where trades are conducted on SimpleX. The SimpleX link was also posted on BitMixList.

Thanks for using BitMixList.

I wonder why they would just blacklist a site minus determining if the person reporting it is a malicious actor or not. And I wonder which blocklist/blacklist they use. At least the one used by Metamask can be accessed, and they even accept appeals in case of a mistake.

Right now Metamask shows no pop-up at least.

NotATether, what do you think about wizardswap?

They added this in their FAQ (https://www.wizardswap.io/faq) sometime back

https://talkimg.com/images/2025/08/16/USiVcb.png

They froze someone's funds not so long ago, though the OP of that thread never returned with an update: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5552585

I don't know if this means they can cooperate with law enforcement to freeze and seize funds. Perhaps even expose one's private details?

We are not a money-laundering directory. If a service is compelled to freeze stolen coins by law enforcement, there is nothing I can do about that.

I wish to not put a target on my back.

A disclaimer has already been added to the OP to reflect this.

btw. Cointor has several alternative mirror domains, look in their ANN.
