You really don't know how the blockchain works, do you?
Troll is still enjoying the attention. Kick him out of the conversation and he will lose his interests.

The fact is that hard currency (aka physical dollars) are frequently used for illicit purposes. Unlike bitcoin moving through CM, or any other mixer, it is very difficult to track dollars, especially if they never end up in the banking system. When I receive dollars from someone, although I don't think the dollars are the proceeds of some illegal activity, I really have no way of verifying this. Also, unless a dollar I receive is brand new, or nearly brand new, there is a high probability it was used for some illicit purpose between the time it was printed and when I received it.
No one talks about all the illegal activities are done used by fiat currency. Bitcoin existed and black money talk started and all the crime started to happen. Isn't it? Before satoshi the world was a beautiful place without any war, drag dealing, money laundering, sex trafficking, humen trafficking, child abuse. My three years old baby girl may believe it if everyone around me keep her away from the history.

The point was privacy and pointing out your blatant lie that one needs a "warrant" to see things on the blockchain. If you don't care about privacy - fine. Some people do and therefore use mixers, CoinJoin, privacy coins, etc.

in any case, 'Nut nut nutty' wrote a full story on me and worldofcoins thinking you provided a Solid proof!!

It is well known fact that 90% of all paper fiat money is laced with cocaine and other type of illegal drugs and narcotics, so how does it make you feel that you're getting paid with the commissions from the drug dealers, junkies and criminals?

@suchmoon should I correct him or you want to do the honors?
I don't think the term "laced" is accurate, but if you replace the term "laced" with "contain trace amounts of" I would agree with the statement, based on this article and other information.

Maybe you should have taken the "having alt accounts is not against the rules" route. It's been quite obvious that this throwaway SmokerFace account is a sockpuppet and no one has really given much of a shit about it.

Actually this is not true. The FBI and other government agencies can track down your address at will, provided that they were on an exchange at some point. (That is how the 2020 Twitter scammers got caught and arrested).

If you want ultimate privacy, you should be looking at Monero and other Cryptonote coins with Ring confidential transactions (which are actually used by darknets, not to mention legit users).

I actually make more money off of my job as a cryptonote coin dev than wearing this sig, but I'm pretty sure you aren't going to be bashing me about that, are you (which is arguably, from your point of view, much more reprehensible than wearing a chipmixer sig).

Yes, that's what I meant, It's only a visible option for government agencies like the FBI to track you down.
...
You left out people / corporations with a lot of time and money and resources.

NotATether is correct if you want real privacy there are other / better ways of doing it. I have posted in the past that there are better ways of getting your privacy then mixers. But, they are time consuming, require a lot more work and time and knowledge on your part and have larger risks of loosing your coins. And not for people who don't understand crypto.

As for why to use it some people like privacy some people like anonymity I even started a thread about it last week.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/privacy-vs-anonymity-5366195  that is why mixers exist.

Or, let's combine a casinos signature campaign with this one. There are many countries where BTC is fine but online gambling even if not illegal is frowned upon.
So, you can click on OGs signature and play for a while, and then withdraw. Now, do you want to have your BTC shown to be from someplace where it's really nor supposed to be from, or some generic coins.

Could go on and on with other reasons.


Disclosure for the future at the time of posting I am wearing the CM sig
Disclosure #2 for the future, there are at least 2 posters above me in this thread who know who I am / have my address so my privacy / anonymity is gone. Does not mean I don't think others should not have theirs.

A normal person would not need this high-tech privacy unless they're running from something really bad, Even then that "Bad person" will not be able to track the transactions made in Binance, Poloniex.

I mean there are limits on Exchanges and KYC is needed, But why would an Exchange give away the data of a user to some random person who happens to track down their Customer, They can only pass this information if the individual is a government official and has a warrant.

Granted this might fall under "scummed" coins, what with you making money from a scam casino.

If whoever owns that address sends those Bitcoins to Binance, Poloniex, Kraken, Bitfinex, then every Bitcoin those Exchanges have will come under "scummed" coins?

Looks like you need a technical lesson [though I don't think you'll take the time to comprehend it].

Whenever someone sends bitcoins from a casino - doesn't matter which one it might as well be 1xbit or stake or bustabit - to an exchange, most of the time the coins invariably become "scummed" because most exchanges are using software that traces the bitcoins back to gambling.

Usually what happens next is that your coins, scummed or not scummed, are seized a la account termination based on some obscure clause in their terms of service.



Bitcoin is private enough already and no one IRL can trace your bitcoins unless you're stupid enough to moan about how many Bitcoins you own and prove to people around you.
Even if you disclose your bitcoin wallet address there's less than a 1% chance of them being able to trace everywhere those bitcoins went, It's hard enough already for Government Agencies to trace, what makes you think a normal Human without a warrant can do to trace someone's Bitcoins?

You can choose to believe this, just as you choose to fawn and obsess over someone who calls themselves nutildah online. In fact, the degree of obsession is to an extent where I would be partial to believing you are a nutildah alt for the purpose of ego masturbation as opposed to someone trolling them.

As you would say... "someone obviously has an obsession with me". Roll Eyes


Rather than [thoroughly] defending myself, again, and be forced to create a wall of text, I'll try to summarize... ad nauseam.

.. hope it helps someone out there:
OgNasty: Begins advertising for a gambling site 1 week after I provided proof directly to him that one of the owners was helping a long-time scammer on this forum by giving them a ranked account to conduct more scams. After seeing him start wearing their signature a week later, and inquiring further (while expressing my disgust), he told me the money was too good to pass up.
suchmoon: Advertises for a site intended to help people's privacy when sending coins. Someone, unrelated to suchmoon, used this service to do something illegal.

For me, these are not similar situations. Og tends to find illogical comparisons he can use to attack, mudsling, deflect, or simply to elicit a response he can mock.. or all of the above.. he's good at it. *shrug*

^ Disclaimer: This summary is my objective stance on these members and their use of signatures. It is done without factoring the potential accolades (or lack thereof) each member should really be acknowledged for, or frowned upon.

Spoiler alert: When I do factor these accolades in (or lack thereof):
My level of trust for suchmoon goes up.
My level of trust for OgNasty goes down.

Attackers started laundering the stolen funds in a month after the hack


Following a major Binance’s security breach that resulted in a loss of 7,000 BTC (more than $80 million at press time), hackers started to launder the stolen funds on June 12, 2019, according to research published by Luxembourg-based crypto capital flow firm Clain.

As Clain noted in the study, it was pretty straightforward to trace the subsequent steps of the attackers as it is “practically impossible to launder big volume of coins in a relatively short period of time.” As such, the researchers managed to detect the initial pool of hacker’s addresses, while further extraction of those addresses allowed them to recognise subsequent alteration to ownership of stolen funds by using a neural network, the btc news ays.


Hackers caused highest historic inflows on crypto tumbler Chipmixer



As Chain discovered, the funds stolen from Binance were directed to crypto tumbler Chipmixer, which reportedly experienced a historical high of fund inflows. Clain added that the abnormally high volume allows one to assume that any outflow coming from Chipmixer these days is likely related to the same owner.



Process of how it was done: https://clain.io/blog/post/binance-hack-2019-deep-dive-into-the-money-laundering

analysis can be done to ensure any coin being mixed is not stolen.
That would mean 1 BTC ≠ 1 BTC! It means you could never accept a payment without doing an investigation, and the evidence of a possible theft (possibly far up the blockchain) could be weak. What if someone claims you stole the Bitcoin he paid you?
I'd say that's a terrible slippery slope to enter.
I specifically did not endorse the proposal I brought forth. Automated tools could be used to detect if a transaction is associated with a theft/hack, and could act accordingly. I do agree that there are issues if it is not clear cut if the coin being sent is actually stolen, or even if a hack/theft even took place. This is why it is better to let the courts decide, and judgements could be enforced when someone tries to convert their coin to fiat (not stablecoin).

As I mentioned in my previous post, if you are moving 4k BTC through CM, for all intents and purposes, a competent professional blockchain analysis firm should be able to trace where the coin is withdrawn to.

I myself don't know the site is phishing, in my opinion if it leads to phishing, it needs to be told to the Bitcointalk community especially.

To prevent unwanted things, such as data, fraud or theft of email or documents.

It needs to be prevented, because the site is very easy to find in a google search.

In Any case ChipMixer did receive a Minimum 4836 BTC from an exchange's funds called Binance It's another matter that owner of Binance didn't approve of the transaction.

Imagine ChipMixer having 10,000 Bitcoins and a Well Known Hacker mixed their 10,000 BTC with ChipMixer's,

-FBI tracked those funds.
-Now ChipMixer using those Hacker's funds to make mix someone else's BTC.
-User who mixed their BTC through Chipmixer ends up getting a fraction of Hacker's Coins and attracts the FBI.
-Now FBI traces those funds to an Exchange he deposited and Gets a Legal warrant to get information on the user.
-Exchange has no Option but to co-operate "But where privacy"?
-Happens to arrest someone and waste their time "That's another story if they get released or not"
-And this doesn't happen to a single user.

False.

Easy to verify by looking at OgNasty's trust page what the negative feedback is for.

False.

I'm not advertising "money laundering schemes".

What would your proposed solution be? Try to answer this question with a succinct response.
The argument the OP seems to be making is something along the lines of that CM has profited from thieves using their services in the past, therefore those wearing the CM signature should resign their positions if they want to maintain credibility when discussing ethics. (This is not my personal stance, but rather is my reading of the OPs stance).

I don’t think there is evidence that CM profited from the theft/hack in question by mixing the stolen coin. Given the amount involved, I think a competent blockchain analysis firm could reasonably track the stolen coin through CM.

To answer your question as to what can be done, additional confirmations can be required and analysis can be done to ensure any coin being mixed is not stolen. Given 200-300 confirmations, could blockchain analysis detect stolen coin? Yes, probably. Is this a reasonable request? No I don’t think so, but this is up for debate. As I mentioned, with the amounts involved, blockchain analysis should be able to detect the outputs of the stolen coin in question.

I think the benefits that mixers give, such as giving privacy for those dealing with moderate amounts, outweighs the drawbacks of mixers (the additional difficulty in tracking stolen and/or illegitimately obtained coin).

Ask yourself why the self-described scam busters here are advertising operations that launder money for scams while the forum's position is not to moderate scams without coming to a nefarious conclusion...

I'll be honest with you--I don't even know how Chipmixer works myself, but that's mostly because I'm too fucking stupid to understand the intricacies of things that can be done on blockchains.  I've picked up some knowledge over the years, but I never really had the time or the "tech intelligence" that it takes to understand how a service like Chipmixer works.  I'd admit to other things I'm ignorant about, but I don't feel like embarrassing myself even more.

As far as advertising for Chipmixer, I get SmokerFace's point, but it's kind of the same argument that bitcoin is bad because it's been used to buy drugs and all sorts of other illegal stuff.  From a campaigner's point of view, signature space is just being rented out in the same manner as a TV station selling ad spots to anyone that pays.  If what's being advertised is a known scam, then I have a problem with it--but just because a scammer used a service to launder money doesn't mean the service is in the wrong.  Perhaps they should have checked those incoming funds....but I really don't know how they do things.
Thanks for the honesty. by the way - I ask this question out of curiosity - on the other hand I also know that bitcoin can be used for good and evil - a real example in the country where I live this case occurred around 2019 - when bitcoin was misused as an illegal transaction due to its anonymity which is difficult to trace - someone is abusing to fund terrorist groups and other illicit transactions - this reminds me of the $25k SmallRabbit Scam - is there any chance he is using Chipmixer to monetize his scam there?
I don't question earnings when using Chipmixer signatures - that's your privacy and probably not a nice thing to say in public. I just want to know how the chipmixer works.

As far as advertising for Chipmixer, I get SmokerFace's point, but it's kind of the same argument that bitcoin is bad because it's been used to buy drugs and all sorts of other illegal stuff.  From a campaigner's point of view, signature space is just being rented out in the same manner as a TV station selling ad spots to anyone that pays.  If what's being advertised is a known scam, then I have a problem with it--but just because a scammer used a service to launder money doesn't mean the service is in the wrong.  Perhaps they should have checked those incoming funds....but I really don't know how they do things.

What would your proposed solution be? Try to answer this question with a succinct response.

For example, KYC or identification-based structures defeat the purpose of the platform. Should it simply not exist, at all?

That settles things down a bit for me but not completely.

I don't want to delve into finances but they seem to be getting enough to pay for the campaign and their own profit.
To me, this Binance case is only a tip of the iceberg.


paid with the Commissions from the hacker who used ChipMixer?

If you would read more before posting trolling, you would know that Chimpixer is for free, no commission involved, only donations.
I wanted to continue with "So you were saying what?", but no, I won't, since your answer doesn't matter to me. Trolls are trolls and should not be fed.

This covers how I feel about it pretty well:
We do not launder funds. We do not attack competition.
If you believe this is not true - prove it.

Some people bet and gamble. Some use service at your signature. They may have problem because some other people believe it is immoral. They may use our service to avoid people like that. It is their right and we help them with it.

Did any bitcointalk scammer used ChipMixer to hide their scammed funds? Yes. Are we part of group that scamms people at bitcointalk? No. Do we profit from it? No unless scammers donate and I doubt they do. Can we stop scammer from using our service? I do not think we can.
And this:
Imagine this. You buy a new car. You have paid a lot but car salesman does not give you your car. Instead they tell you that some of the banknotes you have used were previously owned by Morally Wrong People. One of them ate pork. Second one gambled. Third said bad word about our Great Leader. Your money is gone. If you are lucky you will not end up in jail.

If you allow others to dictate how much your assets are worth - you will be tricked. Do not allow others to tell you your Bitcoin is worth only half because they think something happened. Do not allow others to keep your Bitcoin because they say it is not worth anything.
We recommend to not to deal with services that treat Bitcoin as non-fungible.
And this:
Calling some chips "clean" makes other chips "dirty". This damages Bitcoin reputation making it bad people money. We do not want that.

If we went dishonest and offered "clean chips" without explaining what makes them "clean" we could attract a lot of people especially if we advertised at dark net websites.
But with our price strategy more customers and more volume does not make more money. It makes us want to attract honest privacy minded people that know a lot or want to learn and they know what our tool is worth for them.

Virtually anything on the planet can be used for good and evil. You choose your own path, but the fact that things can be abused doesn't mean we should stop using them! If you disagree: good luck with the gun lobby!

You receive interest from your bank accounts. How do you feel to receive money from companies involved in money laundering? Let me spin your sentence. You certainly talk a lot about morals and ethics but you accept the payment that came from the commissions of someone who did the wrong deeds, Anything in your defense?

Chipmixer main use is to have a privacy on your cryptocurrency. It's not there fault if someone use it for money laundering since there service is fully anonymous. You can compared it to Bitcoin, It is a cryptocurrency that use to send money to other people without the use of any third party services, But people can use it too on buying drugs and other illegal stuff, Does that mean that it was Bitcoin fault when it was used for illegal activities?

I disagree, AFAIK Chipmixer doesn't have minimum fee because they use pay what you want [1] means you could mix the coins and pay 0% fees. So they didn't get any profit/commissions from the scammer, unless the scammer want give a donation.

P.S: do you get paid extra for writing bullshit?

SmokerFace found a good way to elicit responses so that he can keep posting bullshit without breaking the multiposting rule. AKA trolling. As long as we keep feeding the poor delusional creature, this will continue.

I still don't understand what Chipmixer is, as far as I can see there are some high ranking members using Chipmixer signature, I guess Chipmixer is like a typical bounty project? is this some kind of special exchange and only for people who want to sell some of the coins earned from hacking the exchange?

Well, if it isn't the vindictive account trading asshole. This is gonna be one of those threads, huh.

SmokerFace: *Criticises ChipMixer**
PokerPlayer [DT]: *Compares with killing someone**
Flython: *Asks a question adding "High ranking member"

How does it make you feel @ChipMixer Promoters that you're paid with the Commissions from the hacker who used ChipMixer?

How will they feel? The same as a cutlery manufacturer when a madman kills someone using a kitchen knife.

Attackers started laundering the stolen funds in a month after the hack


Following a major Binance’s security breach that resulted in a loss of 7,000 BTC (more than $80 million at press time), hackers started to launder the stolen funds on June 12, 2019, according to research published by Luxembourg-based crypto capital flow firm Clain.

As Clain noted in the study, it was pretty straightforward to trace the subsequent steps of the attackers as it is “practically impossible to launder big volume of coins in a relatively short period of time.” As such, the researchers managed to detect the initial pool of hacker’s addresses, while further extraction of those addresses allowed them to recognise subsequent alteration to ownership of stolen funds by using a neural network, the btc news ays.


Hackers caused highest historic inflows on crypto tumbler Chipmixer



As Chain discovered, the funds stolen from Binance were directed to crypto tumbler Chipmixer, which reportedly experienced a historical high of fund inflows. Clain added that the abnormally high volume allows one to assume that any outflow coming from Chipmixer these days is likely related to the same owner.
