Title: Blockchain.info the only wallet with mixer interface?
Post by: bitcoinrocks on February 16, 2015, 11:50:52 PM
Is Blockchain.info the only wallet with an interface to a mixer (Shared Coin)?

As far as i can tell it is. I find that great cause we should have more services art one place to make Bitcoin use more simple and fluid. Not every Bitcoin user hang on forums, we need simplicity for BTC to go mainstream.

Darkwallet looks great, but as their website says currently:

"IMPORTANT The wallet is Not Stable or Safe, and at this point you should use it with real money only at Your Own Risk."

but the mixer interface will give some hint that the coins might have been sent using a blockchain wallet.

Not sure if it makes difference or if I'm too paranoid

I don't think I follow.  What do you mean specifically?

No it doesn't actually. When you use shared send with blockchain's wallet it actually appears that the transaction was initially sent from some other node.

Additionally their shared send is open source on github so anyone can actually implement it themselves

I have used blockchain.info's SharedCoin mixing service (and of course bitmixer.io's as well) many times.

Both work well.  They appear to have very different ways of mixing coins.

yes, tried it myself , the transaction was sent from another node, so relax, but i wonder why would anyone use mixing services if it is use for a good purposes anyway

So the people you're paying can't see the entirety of your holdings.  It's like handing out your bank statement every time you pay someone in cash or credit card.

Earlier, it was broken and as a result, it wasn't anonymous. Did they fix it?

You can be in danger for breaking laws without even knowing, so mixing would help you but not fully.
