You can try Megapari, which is an online gambling platform that has everything you could possibly need. They allow VPN usage, however you take full responsibility for the consequences, as gambling might be illegal in your country. No KYC, and offer a wide variety of sports options, including UFC. Additionally, they accept several deposit and withdrawal options, including Bitcoin. If you find the fees for Bitcoin deposits to be too high, you can use other altcoins to fund your account. Personally, I use Megapari for playing card games and have never encountered any issues so far.
I clicked the link and it lead to dodgy site nothing to do with Megapari

Does anyone else agree that mixers can be tracked?

Did you read anything on the link I put in my previous post?
Yes, thanks.

From your link the quotes below grabbed my attention:
In general, I would recommend using privacy driven cryptocurrencies if you want to have privacy in your transactions...

Since Bitcoin is purely transparent and you are able to to analyze each transaction in blockchain space you have enough data to identify and anonymize transactions regarding the mixing service.You just have to filter all blockchain data which is not interesting for you and analyze the rest.

monero and zcash are private crypto's because they were built with that purpose in mind. Bitcoin was not.

I did not look into the specific implementation of dash, monero, zcash. General speaking the difference between mentioned cryptos and bitcoin is, that bitcoin is not meant to provide privacy while the main focus of monero and zcash is privacy. They are built in a way to provide privacy, while in bitcoin some services try to implement algorithms to provide privacy on a cryptocurrency which is not meant to guarantee privacy.

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Privacy
https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2019-February/016698.html

The most effective way to maximize privacy when using Bitcoin is to abstain from address reuse, and to only conduct business with those who abstain from address reuse.
This would be very effective in making "mixers" obsolete, and unnecessary in most cases.

Remember that these are confined to the network layer of Bitcoin:

1. With BIP156, your IP address will no longer be tied to your personal transactions from the perspective of connected Bitcoin nodes.
2. With BIP151, all relayed transaction data will be encrypted from the perspective of someone analysing internet traffic (but connected Bitcoin nodes will still see the transactions unencrypted).
Neither of those BIPs will change the ability to analyse transactions on the blockchain
Decentralized mixers won't steal your money?

Electrum allows you to receive to different address each time but when you send it doesn't is there a wallet that allows you to generate new address to send from too?

Anyone ever had Stake or someone like that telephoning them during verification i.e. speaking to you?

Anything to worry about if you use mixers and not doing anything illegal?
Will any one come knocking on your door if you use mixers and not doing anything illegal?
Will posts like this be banned too after Jan?
Will using mixers be an expensive?

I don't think you should concern yourself if you're working with reputable mixers anyway.
reputable mixers would be who?

...it solely depends on the amount of Bitcoin that we are talking about. If it's not a surprising amount, then you don't have to worry about anything at all.
It's usually very small amounts for paying online bill under $100.

Your biggest concern on mixer that has a transaction to money launderer is you receiving Bitcoins from them especially when the mixer that use was seize by the government because your Bitcoin address will be on the watch list which you will have a problem if you send your coins on CEX.... US government that typically aggressive on this matter.
This is what I was concerned about but since it's only a small amount no more than $100 then nothing to worry about?

Mixer is a tool to make you stay anonymous,
That's the only reason I want to use mixer.

..There is a good thread about how it is not that difficult to break mixers in the sense that whoever has the knowledge, resources and time can connect the dots and come to the conclusion where something came from and where it went. Those who analyze blockchain today are already so successful in this that even mixers do not pose too much of a challenge. Anonymity online is something that is talked about a lot, but being completely anonymous online is a big illusion.
Does anyone else agree that mixers can be tracked?


You have to worry about using Mixer when you are using centralised platforms like exchange and wallet services.
Even web wallet's?

I think you have to find alternatives when you want to protect your privacy and hide your funds. We have to use swaps or decentralised exchanges to protect privacy. I feel it is better to avoid mixers since they are facing a lot of legal issues lately. Law enforcement agencies consider money laundering whoever uses mixers. So you would be one of them if law enforcement could detect you.
My goal is anonyomilty, I am unfamilar with swaps and decentralized but will look into that, are there any other alternative ways to be anonymous with transactions?

If you want to use it for increased privacy, you're free to do so.
That's why I am looking into mixers, privacy is my motivation not because I am doing anything illegal.

Familiarize your local laws and your rights, do your own research when it comes to legal advice.
I doubt very much your average lawyer will even know what a mixer is.
88  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Anything to worry about if you use mixers and not doing anything illegal? on: December 20, 2023, 10:22:12 AM
Centralized exchanges are far more likely to question you about your funds if your coins are mixed. So if you already mixed your coins, probably do a couple of hops from multiple wallet addresses to hopefully bypass their automated flagging software if it doesn't dig deep enough.
Multiple hops from your own desktop wallet like Electrum?

Mixer is a tool to make you stay anonymous, so assuming you did right and know what you're doing, how can someone able to know your location and knocking your door? you must be leave your identity somewhere and it's already kill the purpose of mixer.

Using mixer will be expensive because the current regulations is full of KYC, so it's not gonna be easy to stay anonymous.

It is super easy to mess it up, by mixing outputs of separate transactions together. For example, I have a UTXO that is freshly mixed. Then I pay something online and I receive the change. If I then mix the change with other UTXOs that haven't been processed by mixers or coinjoins etc, you can definetely make a mistake. So I underline a sentence in your response, because it is important that we do things properly. No tool is safe against human error Wink
You mean there is a right and wrong way to use a mixer?

There is nothing to worry about if we do not commit illegal acts such as money laundering. Then why should we be afraid?, if we are doing the right thing and not breaking the law.
And regarding mixer posts after January 1, maybe the words in the posts should just be censored.
Innocent people get arrested for crimes all the time.

Stake ...do accept VPNs.

Regarding VPN, I use tunnelbear and so far it has worked smoothly without any problems.
The terms and conditions allow the vpn?

If possible, please let me know your purpose when using those visas and master cards. Because as far as I know, all of them are identified, and if it's used for illegal things, I think it's not good to sell  Roll Eyes I have just read a few recent articles and it seems that someone is selling it, but tell me your purpose, I can help if it is not illegal  Wink
Just to use online shopping nothing illegal.

98  Other / Meta / To login I had to go thru over 50 captcha is this normal? on: December 17, 2023, 07:18:03 AM
To login I had to go thru over 50 captcha is this normal if you have a clean ip (not blacklisted)?
Is this normal if your using tor browser?
I felt like giving up, even though the captcha was working properly except for sometimes it would say incorrect even though I hadn't clicked any image yet.
Is there a way to login with just minimum captcha like 10  or so, 50 and more is exhausting as my eyes are focused on the screen and if you pause it will make you start again maybe?
99  Other / Meta / Re: Forum unusable with Tor on: December 13, 2023, 07:40:29 AM
Anyone having problems with Tor for the past couple of days? It's going insanely slow for some reason, im trying rotating nodes but everything seems like there's no bandwidth or something, but it's specially slow when it comes to getting successfully logged in on here. Im tying to get the captcha to show up but I get an error. I would have been locked out of the account but luckily I had saved my captcha code, but if it wasn't for that I wouldn't have logged in at this rate.

If anyone knows if Tor is having any problems and how to improve this it would be great. Im assuming it's not something that has to do with the forum. I cannot try to access the forum without Tor so let me know.
Try updating Tor.
