Poking about LinkedIn shows that a couple of their key people such as their CTO left the company around the same time as they went silent on all their media channels last year. It seems maybe there are a few customer support agents still working at Coinomi, but they key people responsible for maintenance and development have all left.
It's possible. I am not following anything related with Coinomi for years, but I remember last time I checked their desktop app it was very buggy, and I couldn't close it properly several times. Not shilling for one particular company, BUT the Keystone hardware wallet has a decent IMO multicoin companion app for both Android & IOS
Didn't Keystone officially announce recently they are stopping support for their companion app and they are focusing more on supporting all other third party applications? If this is true than I wouldn't recommend anyone using this app for anything serious. There is one app from different HW manufacturer, but I am not comfortable enough using and recommending it.

Big unexpected changes for me regarding Mercury wallet. They are going to discontinue support for Mercury wallet services, and there is 3 months period for that, so you better withdraw and convert statecoins if you still have them. Good news is that development continues as Bitcoin MPC offchain layer 2 protocol, that is Bitcoin MPN offchain layer. I am waiting to see new release of Mercury Layer, but anyone interested in Bitcoin privacy can find more information on their website: https://mercurylayer.com/

Excellent explanation. After already stealing coins from Bitcointalk users with their two previous mixing sites "Chipmixer" and "Whirlwind.Money", BlackHatCoiner and o_e_l_e_o are being paid up to $6 per post to lure victims from Bitcointalk into their newest "Mixing Site" scam, [banned mixer]
Oh so you have a crystal ball and special powers and you know this website is a scam?! I thought before that some of the things you said made sense, but with this statement you pretty much ruined your reputation. I never went on witch hunting campaign against Wasabi wallet, but I also don't support them working with company that supports censorship on blokchain. You have zero profs for your claims and if you can accuse someone for publicly promoting a ''scam'' that never happened, than I can also say that you are paid by Wasabi&zkSNACKs for promoting and defending them. Unless you provide some evidence I will have to ignore you for spreading fake news. If you don't believe me, just look at the past 40 pages of posts on this thread. You'll see it FILLED with scammers advertising "Mixing Services" trying to trick Wasabi users into giving up their coins and privacy.
Paranoid nonsense BS So now you are accusing everyone with mixer signature for being a scammers, again without single proof for your claims. You are clearly spreading lies and propaganda for wasabi wallet.

I have been watching the mempool ( https://mempool.space/) often now, but found that instead of decreasing fee, it is always on the rise. It's not true that fees are always rising, and it's easy to confirm that on mempool.space Graphs page. There are periods of higher and lower blockchain activity, but everything can change quickly, and fees can be much higher during the bullrun.

There are great wallets out there, but none specialized to crypto gamers. That is why, I am building a new wallet to make crypto gamers' lives easier. It would be helpful if you guys share any pain points about your current wallet.
Do we really need to have special wallets for gamers, musicians, divers, gravediggers, construction workers and all other professions? I don't think so, and I don't know what is so special about gamers, except they maybe use computers more than other people. We already have good options for desktop computer like Electrum, Sparrow wallet, and few others for mobile devices. Bitcoin wallet should be open source, and it's not going to be easy to create new wallet from scratch. There is another feature some of the crypto gamers are asking is multi-chain support.
You will have to run nodes for all those chains/coins. Check out Unstoppable.money wallet, that is a good starting point for open source mobile wallets.

This article discusses the ways you can maximize the use of your TOR browser and optimize security & speed.
In your article you are saying that people should use VPN and Tor together to ''amplify'' Tor, and I am not sure this is a good idea for everyone. That is something that is NOT recommended by some security experts, and this is even confirmed on Tor website: Generally speaking, we don't recommend using a VPN with Tor unless you're an advanced user who knows how to configure both in a way that doesn't compromise your privacy. https://support.torproject.org/faq/faq-5/

How can I create a Flag against them?
Help how? You have address on their website, but I think you need to hire a good lawyer who understands how cryptocurrency scams work. Maybe it's also possible to report them to Visa because they are abusing their name and scamming people. I see they are still active in telegram and continue ''business'' as usual: https://t.me/pstdotnet/18

I think the type 3 Flag can't be Supported in this case. But I also know it's one large deposit away from someone losing their money. It needs a big red warning banner, but (the way I read it) can't get one right now. It's a rare case that doesn't seem to fit the Flag system, and a Newbie warning Flag seems insufficient.
Maybe we need to have new flag type created for cases like this, because there is chance this could repeat again in future. I am staying neutral in this case, and I speculated earlier that some outside factors (maybe arrest) could affected what happened with ww owners and their website. This whole case just doesn't look anything like any other scam I seen in my life, and I would like to hear what theymos thinks about this.

Please share your thoughts.
I am currently not in Sinbad campaign but I really want to see more campaigns introducing different payrate that is not based on number of written posts. My best experience was with signature campaigns that allow me to write in my usual style and they don't force me to write 50+ posts, or minimum amount of posts. That probably makes job much easier for manager because they don't have to check every single post, but than you can't accept anyone in campaigns like this. I think currently Foxpup pays like this for wearing Avatar, and I want to see more campaigns doing this. In case of abuse or inactivity manager should be allowed to remove participants at any time. Just my 2 sats

Confused about which option is best and cost effective?
You can't have the best and cheapest option in the same package. You also didn't say what coins you want to mix exactly since you mentioned XMR coin and different centralized swap exchanges that have nothing to do with mixing.

I do not understand what you are saying. You first said that face unlock can be manipulated in a way someone's photo can be used to unlock the device. Later you said using it with a long password is good. If someone phone is stolen with the long password phone, the person photo can still be used to unlock the device. Which means it is not good to use face unlock.
I am afraid you will never understand it.

If anyone knows, what are your impressions, thanks
I never used Keepser wallet, but I know about it from our hardware wallet tracking topic, so it's not a new product. Concept of credit card format is cool but there are better and cheaper options available today (Coolwallet, Tangem, etc), and I wouldn't waste my money on keepser. However, I am always interested in hearing reviews from people who actually used it.

Can we make multiple Bitcoin wallets on a hardware wallet? For example, if someone has one Trezor wallet, can he make multiple wallets in it with different seed phrases? Or one hardware wallet will have only one seed phrase.
Short answer is No. Most popular hardware wallets only support single seed phrase, so you need to reset it and import new phrase and you can't use multiple phrases in same time at the same time. You can create multiple addresses and accounts, but that is not the same as having multiple seed phrases in one device. Only two hardware wallets at the moment support multiple seed phrases, that is new Keystone3 Pro wallet, and Cypherock X1 wallet that has interesting new concept with cards. Make sure to do your own research before buying any hardware wallet, I am not recommending anything myself. https://keyst.one/ https://www.cypherock.com/

Cake Wallet exists in Beta for Linux, which leaves Feather Wallet. I'll install this (in a VPN, of course) and recover my private key from Coinomi.
If you don't need to use it smartphones than Feather wallet is fine monero wallet especially for people who are familiar with Electrum, it has almost identical gui design and menus. I never tried using Cake wallet (I remember they had one serious bug), but I think anything is better than Coinomi. After a bit of research, I realized that AtomicDEX rebranded and changed its name to Komodo Wallet. Their new website is very weird. Many times when you click on something, it wants to download Komodo documents to your computer. They don't have a page that clearly explains all supported coins and tokens, though. It was the same with AtomicDEX.
I wrote about that in different topic, they rebranded and made things a bit more complicated and confusing for everyone.

The multisig is good, but I am worry that if I suddenly die, my wife could not find back the money. So maybe multisig is not a good choice for me.
Well yeah, you could also die without multisig and it would be the same IF you don't write recovery instruction letter for your wife. Making more complications means it's going to be harder for anyone to recover your coins. PS Try to use correct quotes in forum...

I don't know if you have had this impression recently with mempool.space or the sites you use.
Mempool.space is open source and you can run it yourself as self-hosted, so you don't have to depend on any third party. If you don't want to do that than you can check mempool state from several sources and get median mid value. You can check my BTC Mempool Fees Extension/add-on for Firefox/Chrome browser that includes mempool.space with two more source (blockchain.com and bitcoinber.live). Default settings in mempool.space but you can do manual change quickly. PS Note that nothing is 100% precise since all of this is just estimated fees.

I made another part bold: there are no damages anymore.
No more damages that we know. Anyone else who used whirlwind mixer and had no connection with bitcointalk forum can't get any refund for potential loses. I also think that refunds happened only because manager initiative that had enough extra coins to cover all the loses decodx had. Anyway I removed my support for previous flag, and I supported new Flag Type 1.

please I will need guidance on how to get started with freelancing but will prefer if there are crypto based specifically Bitcoin as main payment option. I am a complete novice as regards freelancing and will like to know how best to set up a catchy profile that will be outstanding and unique one that will make my skills more marketable.
It's easy for someone to create crypto freelancing websites but problem is that you can't find enough job offers to compete with regular freelancing websites. I think you would have higher chances of getting hired for some crypto related work in bitcointalk forum than in those freelancing websites. Ideal scenario would be for some popular freelancing website to add bitcoin payments, but that would probably create regulation issues for them. One website nobody mentioned so far is Latium, I see they have lot of projects completed and they exist since 2017: https://latium.org/

Few days ago I saw latest thing used by scammers and hackers to easily unlock any devices that have biometrics face lock. They only need one regular photo from phone owner, than they create video from that by adding same photo multiple times in a same way like movies are made... this was later used to unlock phones. Using biometrics alone is not safe, but using it in combination with strong password is not a bad idea. Nobody is going to enter long password for unlocking phone every time.

Some altcoins that are on the wallet are shitcoins. Not supporting Algorand, Quantum and many other coins and it is supporting just the peg of some coins, or supporting tokens. The only reason I prefer the wallet is that it is open source and support passphrase, but there are some shit tokens on the wallet.
I don't know what you wanted to say really... All coins except Bitcoin are shitcoins, especially that examples you mentioned, they are one of the worst shitcoins and it does not matter to me on what blockchain they are on. Only usable altcoin that is missing is maybe monero for it's privacy, but all coins are disabled by default so you don't even see them if you don't use them. I do not know much about altcoins.
You certainly know more than me...I never even heard about Quantum
