> There is no coin control in Wasabi Wallet 2. This is correct, but in and of itself can be misleading for those who know that privacy in Bitcoin is near impossible without coin control, because the conclusion would be then that Wasabi 2.0 ruined privacy for no reason, which is obviously not the

Thank you all for your replies, I think everyone agrees here how it "should be" and indeed I risked my post and my used terminology to further legitimize the thinking of adversaries. I'd have one clarification to my original post. It may not be clear why I put PJ/CS to the same box. One way of thin

[bitcoin-dev] Tainting, CoinJoin, PayJoin, CoinSwap

2020-06-10 Thread nopara73 via bitcoin-dev
The problem with CoinJoins is that desire for privacy is explicitly signalled by them, so adversaries can consider them "suspicious." PayJoin and CoinSwap solve this problem, because they are unnoticeable. I think this logic doesn't stand for scrutiny. >From here on let's use the terminology of a

The CashFusion research came out of the Bitcoin Cash camp, thus this probably went under the radar of many of you. I would like to ask your opinions on the research's claim that, if non-equal value coinjoins can be really relied on for privacy or not. (Btw, there were also similar ideas in the Kna
