[END] [banned mixer] Premium Review and Suggestion Campaign

[Hispo]

Hello Hispo, thank you for sharing your review with us! It is important to get some reviews from people who have no experience with Bitcoin mixers, as we also target newbies to stay anonymous with Bitcoin. We find it important to share the vulnerabilities they might have when not using Bitcoin mixers.

Hi Hispo, thank you or your reply! Actually, changing the name to the terms "receipt of mixing/operation" or similar is a great idea. Not everyone knows the term "letter of guarantee", especially new users that have never used a mixer. So we will definitely consider changing the name of this.

Our trustpilot is already setup and is visible in our website as well. Leaving your review would be much appreciated! You can share your impressions here: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/[banned mixer].

Thank you very much in advance!

Hello, I wanted to let you know I already left my impressions on your trustpillow webpage, as I said I would.
Also, I wanted to give a look to your webpages to see how it has changed since the first time I saw it, and unfortunately I could not access, I got this error message:

I am using Firefox, by the way.

Hello Hispo.

We have seen your review and replied you to that. As mentioned in our reply, the mixing processes still work in the background when there is such a backend error and people still get their mixed Bitcoins on their provided address. We needed to do some maintenance work on our servers and everything is running as usual again. Please check. Thank you!

Also, thanks for removing the 1-star review again from our Trust Pilot!

I believe your are mistaking me for someone else  
I did not give your service a 1 star review on Trustpillow, but a 5 star review based on my first experience which was part of this campaign.
I just wanted to let you know this problem in case you were unaware of it, have a good day!

@UniJoin,
Thank you for the opportunity to review your mixer.

Here's a summery of my observations;

• No Letter of Guarantee.
• Front page is busy and appears as if trying to look not scammy.
• Trustpilot reviews seem too good to be true.
• Fees are not accurately described on mixing page.
• Minimum mix amount on mixing page is in conflict with the FAQs.

tl;dr:

The mixing functions work well, and fees are very reasonable, but I would not use this mixer without a GPG or Bitcoin signature.

• No Letter of Guarantee.

With out the ability to independently verify the LoG, I would never use this mixer.  I tried the site that was pointed to as the verification tool in previous posts.  I don't know how many configurations I tried, all to no avail.  Not that would even consider this if that site was my only option, I only went through the exercise for this review.  Essentially, you have no LoG.  I'm sorry to be so blunt, but that's a deal breaker for me.

• Front page is busy and appears to be trying to look not scammy.

This is a pet peeve of mine, and I'm well aware that my neurosis is not common; but I hate pointless stuff on websites.  Keep it simple and to the point.  The more fluff I find a website, especially one that I have trust with my bitcoin, the more suspicious I get.  For example; The scrolling line of links to the press releases on various financial sites struck me as especially odd.  All those links point to a total of three different press releases that try to pass off as articles or reviews.  The one press release that mentions the Ukrainian war makes claims that cannot possibly be verified without breaching your clients privacy, and to me it looks like an excuse to use a tragedy to create a catchy headline.  It comes off as poor in taste.

• Trustpilot reviews seem too good to be true.

Really, they look paid-for.  47 total reviews, 43 of which give 5 stars, and the remaining four gave 4 stars.  All of this without a functional LoG?  Strange.

• Fees are not accurately described on mixing page.

Again, the fees are very reasonable.  I was charged 2.03% for one transaction, and 2.01% for the other, both calculated before blockchain fees.  A cheep price to pay for privacy.

One thing I noticed that my cause some confusion however, there's no mention of Tx fees on the mixing page:


On the FAQs it's described in more detail, specifically the bolded part:

The fee per mixing operation ranges between 1% - 3% and is generated with a decimal number of 4 digits. Also, the miner’s fee that is required by the crypto network is paid by the user and deducted from the total mixed amount.

• Minimum mix amount on mixing page is in conflict with the FAQs.

From the mixing page:


From the FAQs:

The minimum amount to mix Bitcoins is variable as it depends on the USD value. Currently, the minimum amount to mix is:

Bitcoin: 0.000 BTC

I have forwarded this matter to the technical team, to see what we can do to optimize this. Thanks!

We find it important to point with design and more to reflect the quality of mixed coins we provide. This includes many different things and we want to convince Bitcoin newbies of the fact that Bitcoin is not truly anonymous and that they should use a Bitcoin Mixer to enhance their anonymity with Bitcoin transactions. That's why we have also put a lot of information to the website, so that people can inform how important it is and what benefits it provides. It's always a matter of opinion and point of view. Some people like a good design with more information, some people don't.

We can say that these reviews are not bought.

Thank you for sharing this with us. We will add this to the mixing page to make it more clear.

That's correct, we will need to fix this FAQ and share the correct minimum mixing amount.

Thank you for sharing this review with us! A few things helped us to identify optimizable issues, and the technical team is informed about the LoG matter.

My bad that I wasn’t able to complete the review. I had tested the mixer long ago and keep record and notes for the review but sadly things were not in my favor. Anyway, thanks Unijoin and Royse777.

Thanks. Locking the thread now.
