[banned mixer] reviewTo be honest, this is one of the best bitcoin mixers that I have used before. I think there are some features to be added but the site looks nice and I like the website user interface, it looks cool and good.
I used both browser and Tor for it and both worked excellent. I tried it on other browsers and it is working good. Because I have no problem to use Tor with it, I used it for mixing bitcoin and my experience was excellent. There are four stages after an address is generated for you to pay into to get a mixing coin, after you pay into that address, I noticed without confirmation on the bitcoin network, it indicated awaiting deposit almost immediately, confirmation was also later checked ✔️ not quite long, likewise preparing the order. After mixing and payouts, it displayed finished.
FeeA minimum service fee of 0.4% for basic, which is adjustable up to 1.8% which is the percentage the standard fee begins, and up to 3.6% where the premium fee begins, which is adjustable up to 5% maximum. So the fee is adjustable from 0.4% to 5%.
Aside service fee, there is another fee which is not dynamic but fixed per every address used. That is a fee of 0.0002 BTC for each bitcoin address the coin to be mixed will be sent to. That is, if sending to one address, 0.0002 BTC will be charged in addition, if two addresses are submitted for the mixing, 0.0002 BTC will be charged for each address which is 0.0004 BTC and so on. The site makes it in a way you can easily understand it.
To be fear about this, this is one of the mixers with one of the cheapest fee if you decided to go for the lowest fee as possible. In mixing, the longer the transaction the better the mixing, so that should not be a problem. Maybe as time goes on, the fee may be increased, but it is actually still one of the cheapest for now.
Sending to many addressesI like how it is, it has a slider that you can edit the percentage that you want each address to receive:
All you have to do is to click on those colours in circles to adjust the percentage amount of bitcoin that you want each address to receive. But it would have been better if the amount can be edited, like this which belongs to the first address:
If it is percentage of bitcoin to mix is customizable, it would be better. I noticed it is hard to slide those percentage to the accurate amount someone desires. Or maybe the mixer is encouraging the same amount not to be sent to different addresses which can strengthen anonymity as the amount in percentage on each are always slightly different. It will be good if the mixer owner can address this issue, if due to higher anonymity, I think it is also a good idea, but which some people may not like.
The minimum amount to be mixed is 0.001 BTC while the maximum is 10 BTC. This is distinctly stated while mixing and no one that wants to mix will not see it. Although, it is not seen directly on the website but it is there while about to mix. Because of this low fee, I will advice the Tumbler to include all the necessary fee on the main mixing page of the website. If some people do not see the fee, they can be discouraged to use the mixing service, but they can be encouraged with low fee if displayed on the mixer main mixing page.
The website anonymity metre, Fee calculator and Order overview I like these features about on website, including the fee calculator. I will not talk much about the fee calculator and Order overview. The fee calculator works fine and the order overview before sending coin to the address the mixer will provide also works accurately. I like the anonymity meter (called anonymizing meter on the mixing website). If you click on the anonymity meter, you will see this:
I like how it is, it checked ✔️ the important information that it supposed to check and did not check the low fee and minimum delay. If someone can think about what that means, it means you can still choose low fee because the more the delay, the higher the anonymity of the mixing. Nice work there.
I tried to double spend the coin I sent with replace-by-fee support but the transaction remain unconfirmed. Nice work there.
My suggestions Acording to my review, I have one suggestion. If possible the amount in percentage to be mixed into different addresses can be edited, it would be excellent, instead of using only fee slider.
I was able to use segwit single sig and multisig addresses, but I was unable to use pay-to-taproot address. It was the third address that I wanted to use but I had no option than to use single sig segwit address again. It will be good if pay-to-taproot address is supported.
I used it for two bitcoin address with standard fee, it worked fast
I used it for one address to double spend and high fee with higher service fee, I was unable to double spend. Excellent.
I used it with low fee transaction while I send to the mixer address, I saw this error and transaction not processed likely be I used replace-by-fee, although for the testing:
I saw this error:
I downloaded the letter of guarantee, all are 0.9 kilobytes and not opening by any text editor.
I later try fourth transaction using high network fee (when I was sending to the mixer) but low service fee of 0.4% on the mixing site. I was surprised that the transaction was fast after the mixer received my coins with successful transaction.
I have sent the mixer customer support message with the txid of the failed transaction, let me see how fast they will respond and include it on this post.
The mixing service is good, even with low fee. But when I used replace-by-fee, I got that error. I will advice people not to use replace-by-fee when using this mixer. I will edit this post to know about how fast their customer support is.
Edit:After I contact [banned mixer] customer care, I copied the link displayed for further conversation. I later click on the link and it opened on my browser. I can decide to copy and paste the link on my browser anytime I want. If you close the link and open it again after sometime, the last conversation with the customer support were still there. In short, I like how they attended to me. My bitcoin address has been credited.
But I will like people to still review their letter of guarantee to know if it is now working good.
