Is ChipMixer.io a domain controlled by you? I saw it mentioned, and was going to correct them as I assumed it was a phishing link. However, at the moment, it just redirects to ChipMixer.com. I don't believe you've ever mentioned it, so I'm thinking it could be a long-con by a malicious actor who wants to build trust on that URL, and switch to phishing when it gets enough traffic?

The only reference I could find by @ChipMixer is stating chipmixer.io is not their main domain. But there is nothing stating that the .io version does not belong to them, so I am assuming that ChipMixer.io is, in fact, owned and controlled by @ChipMixer

It would appear that chipmixer.io is currently offline/down...

ChipMixer.com is our main domain.
We were under DDoS attack. Tor service was not affected.

I couldn't find anything from Whois.net regarding the .io domain name while everything is available for the .com version. I doubt It's controlled by the same person.

They probably do own chipmixer.io but, if they do, it's probably just to stop anyone from doing a phishinng attempt with the domain name.
I think .IO needs less information than .COM does when it's registered.

This being said, I wouldn't advise using anything other than the official chipmixer.com and the official .onion domain names as using anything else would just be foolish. They may have the .io name in case they need to move from .com if they get DDoS attacks on the main site.

(chipmixer.net and chipmixer.org appear to be owned but parked also - not sure who owns those).

Questions as serious as domain names should not be left to speculations. It should be so factual and direct for people to know for the sake of posterity. If what is happening is exactly what @darkstar_ is calling an attention to, then this is the time to either debunk or confirm it. If any one fall victim of it, then the blame would to chipmixer as to why they didn't come out with a statement which would suggest some level of connivance which would be more difficult to control then and reputation in this crypto world is a fragile thing that can be lost so easily. #my opinion.

What is a chip?

Think of them like virtual casino "chips"... they're just a representation of value. ChipMixer represents your balance as a collection of "chips", instead of having your balance as a single value.

Example: You deposit 1.452 BTC

ChipMixer breaks this into:
1x 1.024 BTC chip
1x 0.256 BTC chip
1x 0.128 BTC chip
1x 0.032 BTC chip
1x 0.008 BTC chip
1x 0.004 BTC chip

You still have 1.452 BTC total, it's just split across a bunch of different chips. if you were to withdraw, you get 6x private keys that have been pre-funded with those amounts.

A horrible mixer! Intuitive interface is not understandable. Especially for the beginner. Absolutely not understandable functions of Split, Mergue, Beats, Donate.

Did you read the FAQ? It explains ALL of these functions: https://chipmixer.com/faq

Quote

Translated 0.01 bts clicked on a button and the balance was displayed as 0.004 bts! Where did the money go?

That depends on what button you clicked... which button did you click?

Quote

The remaining money ordered a withdrawal but nothing came. More I will never use!

Withdrawing doesn't send coins anywhere... it simply gives you access to a "private key" that you can sweep (or import) to the wallet of your choice.

What is a chip? And in what sense do you sacrifice the mixer? I give my money to the mixer and do not get them back? Why should I do this? Huh

That's why it's called a Donation. Every other mixer will charge you a fee to use their service. ChipMixer doesn't.

The thing is that they pay a lot in fees to fill their multiple chips with Bitcoins on a daily basis. Some people are greedy and want everything for free, while some others want to thanks ChipMixer for their service by donating something to help them keep up

A "Chip" is what the funds are broken into. It's 2ⁿx0.004 up to and including n=9.

An example of where you would do this is probably where you:
1. feel generous
2. get a 2.048BTC chip and a 0.004BTC chip and think (I can't be bothered with this change... May as well donate it). Don't know why you wouldn't try betting with it to see if you could get more (or potentially lose), though, sometimes it's nice to give back to a mixing service if you use them a lot.

Contact their support with your session ID so they can check the issues from their side.
The 0.01BTC should have been broken up into 0.008BTC.

The "Bet" function allows you to gamble with some of your chips.
The "Donate" allows you to donate a chip to chipmixer.
The "Split" makes one large chip into two smaller ones (I.E, splitting a 0.008BTC chip makes it into two 0.004BTC chips).
the "merge" merges two identical chips into one large one.

I though initially that splitting coins in this way was a horrible idea, but I have since realised that it is quite a good way of doing it as it means that it's much more difficult to do cryptographic analysis of the outputs if they all look similar.

Nice to see that chipmixer solved the recent 2.048BTC chip withdrawal issue so quickly (kudos).

@ChipMixer, can you incorporate segwit into the service (not sure if this has been suggested yet)?

Sorry about that. Some transactions were not broadcasted properly. They were broadcasted now and they should be soon confirmed.

I've received missing btc to the empty address. Thanks for fast response.

I've got into the same problem and received empty btc key from chipmixer.

There were dozen smaller amount keys and all were ok, just the biggest one is empty.

The address of that key has never received any input tx.

I've already sent email to chipmixer support and hope they will add btc to the address and fix their glitch in the system.

Did you use the real https://chipmixer.com/ ? There are fake sites that look like ChipMixer out there!

Also I check signed receipt (message --- MESSAGE ---
This is a receipt / confirmation that you have received following )

Is the message signed with ChipMixer's Bitcoin address 1ChipMwvHe5tewb1Uqa9bbZZJDmgPV1TC7 ?

Sure, I check website address ten times and aware about phishing

This message is signed with ChipMixer's Bitcoin address:
1ChipMwvHe5tewb1Uqa9bbZZJDmgPV1TC7

I point out that just one of chips have no inputs and no outputs (despite the fact that this is the largest)
Also I had use chipmixer a lot before and face with that error at first time

Hey there mate, if all is as it seems when it comes to the correct url and signature, send them a support request to chipmixer[at]protonmail.com. They'll manually review your mix instance and (hopefully) rectify the situation. They're fairly active here on the forums, as well, so you can alternatively send them a PM here, given that they accept messages from Newbies. They're pretty proactive on maintaining the quality of their service, and should be able to fix your problem.

Cheers!

Already send e-mail to support

This seems quite an unusual error, can you post the bitcoin address?

Also, if you have the session open/or the session token, you could try one of the other options. I.E paste your address into the sweep part instead and see if that works if you're in a hurry.

Was there any Bitcoin sent to this wallet (has the key been given to two of you) or has the address always been empty (has no history on the blockchain)?

I had already tryed paste my address into the sweep part instead before write post here but nothing happens as well

Also I check signed receipt (message --- MESSAGE ---
This is a receipt / confirmation that you have received following )
And one of pair privetekey+address is empty - no inputs and no outputs (No transactions found for this address, it has probably not been used on the network yet.)

For privacy reasons I did not post address here, but send all details to chipmixer e-mail
