Didn't know what happened to Bestmixer.io ?

Bestmixer got shut down because they were too explicit in how using their site may help its users break the law.

And bitblender didn't give people a week to withdraw their coins, they have people a day, and then several hours more, they have claimed they're wiping everything after that. IIRC, some users found that their funds were later moved to new addresses, indicating that bitblender didn't get rid of private keys associated with addresses to which people deposited their funds.

Ah well that's bad then. Thought they gave users a week which i thought was pretty fair. Guess there's no way to contact them too now.

Also i think most mixers now don't really mind where coins are from tbh.

the mixing business isn't legal

Do you have any information on that? Anything specific saying it's not legal?
I assume you're referring to the US?

Hackers and scammers use these mixers to clean their coins , not only legit legal users who just wants some anonymity.

Think it's a little too late now to get the coins back. They did update a week in advance to withdraw the coins if im not mistaken. Imho they should have mentioned a month in advance at least but as you know the mixing business isn't legal and they were probably instructed by the authorities to seize operation within that time frame. Sadly a lot of them still had funds with BitBlender.

Hate to do a scam accusations on this guy because of the way he opened up the website at a moment and had the time to tell ppl to take out coins. So he is a good guy for that and also, he probably had the time to simply have the users copied so that he could later on give back the money.

Lets try, anyone know anything about this guy or how to recover?

I have a thread about this issue and i will give a big reward to the person that help me recover:
