EDITED: Chipmixer has been seized by the FBI and a warrant for arrest issued for the owner/operator.

I have obfuscated the real name of the owner/operator of the Chipmixer website by replacing what appears on the FBI website with XXX instead. The original images of the FBI website and most of the original OP here will be moved to the Investigations board.

The FBI website states this about him:

Remarks:
XXX has basic training in cryptographic engineering and previously worked in decrypting communications and cyber reconnaissance. In 2016, XXX earned a PhD in electronic engineering in Taiwan.

Caution:
XXX is wanted for his alleged direct involvement in stealing identities and engaging in money laundering activity in furtherance of obfuscating and facilitating the functionality of the ChipMixer service.  Through this conduct, XXX has allegedly facilitated the laundering of approximately $3 billion USD worth of Bitcoin.  A large portion of the funds are directly associated with the victimization of people worldwide through ransomware attacks, cryptocurrency heists, the purchase of illicit drugs, the distribution and production of child sexual abuse material, and other crimes.

On March 14, 2023, XXX was charged with Money Laundering, Operating an Unlicensed Money Transmitting Business, and Identity Theft in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a federal warrant was issued for his arrest.

What signal does this international operation to seize Chipmixer send out to other mixers? I am no expert but as far as I can see, in the end, they all will be marked by various international agencies for eventual seizing and the arrest and trial of their owners and employees.

According to news outlets, German authorities seized servers and crypto worth $46 million. US authorities have accused Chipmixer of laundering over $3 billion since 2017. If international authorities will try to seize all funds related to Chipmixer as they are deemed to be illicit, then it is possible that an attempt could be made by authorities to retrieve all the funds that have been paid out as signature campaign fees as they have effectively promoted/advertised the service.

This could end up being very messy for a lot of members in the forum that participated in their signature campaigns if the FBI and US justice department decide to force forum members to repay all the money they received from Chipmixer as signature campaign income.

How do those that participated in the Chipmixer signature campaign feel about this? Do you think you will be asked to repay all the money you received for promoting Chipmixer since the FBI and other international agencies have attributed them to money laundering?

RESULTS:

Napoli 3-0 Eintracht Frankfurt (Agg: 5-0)
Real Madrid 1-0 Liverpool (Agg: 6-2)


After the battering Liverpool received in the first leg it was inevitable Real Madrid would go through to the next round. Liverpool have to try to use this season as a learning experience and try better next season. If they knew they were not going to win the Premier League (and knew they were going to struggle to fight for a top four finish), they should have pushed very hard to challenge Real Madrid but they basically fell flat.

Liverpool need a rebuild of their squad, they have young talent coming through but they need to sell or part with senior players such as Milner, Henderson and ask themselves why they allowed Salah to earn the record amount of money he is getting when he is playing awful football.

Congratulations to Chelsea, Benfica, Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Real Madrid and the three Italian teams in the competition Inter Milan, AC Milan and Napoli.

Well, Haaland scored 5 as Manchester City won 7-0. Could this be the year they win the Champions League?

Chelsea, Benfica, AC Milan, Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Inter Milan have all qualified for the quarter-finals. I think it is a foregone conclusion that Napoli and Real Madrid will join them.

Here are the games being played this evening:

Napoli vs Eintracht Frankfurt (Agg: 2-0)
Real Madrid vs Liverpool (Agg: 5-2)

That is life when it comes to business and business dealings, it is all about money. Sure there is prestige at stake as well as a history-in-the-making event such as a unification fight but if the correct money is not on the table or if the split is not acceptable the fight will not go ahead.

Until they actually get it on in the ring, I suppose we will have to keep on reading those funny comments from Fury to keep us busy 

Whether it was Jordan or Usyk, he made comments in true Tyson Fury fashion, he said: "I can’t wait, I’m in the best shape of my life, I’m fucking ready to rock and troll, I wish it was this weekend. Usyk you gappy-teeth, ugly, bug-eyed, rabbit, cat, ugly piece of s***, you are getting knocked the f*** out"

Whether it is 70/30 with or without the £1 million donation or any other split, most fans are tired of the delay and simply want to see the unification fight to take place.

At Chelsea finally have some momentum now and credit lay with Potter. If Chelsea finish outside the top 4 as expected but manage to go on a successful Champions League run, it would be a good season considering how badly they faltered after Tuchel was sacked.

I am happy for Potter, he deserves some good fortune after the miserable and painful run that Chelsea have endured. I hope he and Chelsea keep it going and they manage to get more points on the table. The way he was affected when he and his family received threats (by supposed-Chelsea fans) was sad to see, I hope he can keep a winning run going.

Scammers are more often than not heartless (Robin Hood comes to mind), I mean I have never heard of a scammer that had either any morals or an iota of decency within them but that is part of their system. They should at least post here to address the questions and concerns.

RESULTS:

Everton 1-0 Brentford
Leeds United 2-2 Brighton and Hove Albion
Leicester City 1-3 Chelsea
Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Nottingham Forest
Crystal Palace 0-1 Manchester City

Well done to Potter and Chelsea for three consecutive wins including a massive on in the Champions League midweek. Everton have moved away from the relegation zone with a vital win.

With Manchester City winning a difficult game at Crystal Palace they have put all the pressure back on Arsenal and are now just 2 points behind them. Tottenham are just 1 point behind 3rd place Manchester United though they have played extra games.

I think $300 is something highly unlikely to be deemed as worth taking a risk on as far as the majority of forum members are concerned.

As you said, even giving this software away would be sending alarm bells ringing. There sad part is there will always be someone who will end up parting with passwords, seeds and other private information when they really have no need to do so in the first place.

You as the OP and the operator of the business really should address the questions surrounding your motives and addressing the issues behind the reasons why a flag was created against you. Are you able to put forward any argument to counter the views that senior members of the forum have built about you?

I have supported the flag but have thus far refrained from leaving any tags as I want to hear your side first. If you do not manage to respond to the concerns made by multiple members here within the next few days I would feel obligated to leave appropriate trust on your profile.

These are the games taking place today:

Bournemouth 1-0 Liverpool(result)
Everton vs Brentford
Leeds United vs Brighton and Hove Albion
Leicester City vs Chelsea
Tottenham Hotspur vs Nottingham Forest
Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

What is wrong with Liverpool? They could have moved in to the top and taken over a Champions League position at the expense of Tottenham but they missed a penalty courtesy of Salah and they lost the game 1-0 at Bournemouth in the early kick-off game.

How can they humiliate, trash and destroy Manchester United 7-0 one week then lose at Bournemouth the next week? They will never be the same team again because Sadio Mane was the one player that was higher than others when it came to their driving force.

Though it seems morally the correct course of action, we all know scams are not moderated in the forum therefore that will probably not happen on the basis of a scam or potential scam.

When scams or potential scams take place all we can do is leave tags, support flags and exclude from our trust lists and try to warn to newbies and gullible people to avoid them otherwise they will most probably end up out of pocket.

RESULTS:

1. FC Union Berlin 3-3 Union Saint-Gilloise
Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 Ferencvaros
Roma 2-0 Real Sociedad
Sporting Lisbon 2-2 Arsenal
Juventus 1-0 SC Freiburg
Manchester United 4-1 Real Betis
Sevilla 2-0 Fenerbahce
Shakhtar Donetsk 1-1 Feyenoord

Arsenal still have a lot of work to do if they are to progress to the next stage but Manchester United bounced back from their defeat to Liverpool by winning comfortably and should qualify for the next round.

That seems to be what the creator of the website seems to be holding on to (that gullible people will fall for the scam). I also have supported the flag for obvious reasons.

That is the key point, after they in possession of your data (seed phrases or anything else) they could easily use that very same data to steal from you. Simply on that basis alone, this website cannot be trusted.

I also have supported the flag but would invite the seed checker website forum representative to make a post here to add their comments and views to those that have already been expressed here so we can all read what they have to say about the situation.

I could not have phrased it better.

After the manner in which you have articulated the main point about it being wise to not trust any website that required or asked for seed phrases it would be a huge mistake if anybody reading your post went on to enter private details in this or any other so-called seed checker website. Anybody entering their seed phrases in any website are most likely going to see their disappear, it is not worth the risk and there is no real reason to enter seed phrases anywhere.

RESULTS:

Bayern Munich 2-0 Paris Saint-Germain
Agg: Bayern Munich won 3-0

Tottenham Hotspur 0-0 AC Milan
Agg: AC Milan won 0-1








After the games that were played on 8th March it was clear big teams were knocked out. PSG were humiliated as Mbappe, Messi and their team were knocked out by a brilliant Bayern Munich side that had no doubts they would do it. As for Tottenham, they narrowly lost out to AC Milan over two legs but they were playing the second leg at home and should have at least scored once which would have turned the tie around.

As it stands, congratulations to Bayern Munich and AC Milan.

RESULTS:

Nottingham Forest 2-2 Everton
Liverpool 7-0 Manchester United

Well those derby games are supposed to be classic games which are on a different level with intensity and passion but what happened here was near total capitulation of Manchester United. They handed victory on a plate to Liverpool. At least the top four race gets even more fascinating now as Liverpool are finally getting serious about trying to end their season on a high.

RESULTS:

Manchester City 2-0 Newcastle United
Arsenal 3-2 Bournemouth
Aston Villa 1-0 Crystal Palace
Brighton and Hove Albion 4-0 West Ham United
Chelsea 1-0 Leeds United
Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur
Southampton 1-0 Leicester City

Arsenal came from from 0-2 down to win 3-2 deep in time added-on against Bournemouth. Manchester City have kept pace at the top of the table by winning but with Newcastle United and Tottenham losing they have allowed Liverpool, Fulham and Brighton to join the chase for 4th place. These five teams are effectively trying to finish the season in 4th place and qualify for the Champions League next season.

These are the games taking place on Snuday 5th March 2023:

Nottingham Forest vs Everton 
Liverpool vs Manchester United

These are the games taking place today:

Manchester City vs Newcastle United
Arsenal vs Bournemouth
Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace
Brighton and Hove Albion vs West Ham United
Chelsea vs Leeds United
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Tottenham Hotspur
Southampton vs Leicester City

Manchester City vs Newcastle United will have an early kick-off. If Manchester City win they will be just two points behind leaders Arsenal. You would expect Arsenal to defeat Bournemouth at home and sit at the top of the table but if Newcastle United manage a win or a draw then Manchester City will have problems catching up with Arsenal.
