Topic: Blender.io - Advanced privacy for Bitcoin transactions (mixer) - page 4. (Read 28132 times)

I used your site and receive the clean bitcons, very user friendly site and the service is fast.
Will try  this again in my next transaction.

That's really very unprofessional behavior from blenderio, no activity for more than 5 days now. They at least could have shared an update here with Hhampuz. No refill to the wallet even the week has been finished. I was also a participant of blender sig campaign and suggested blender to some of the forum people but seems like I must not be.

Yeah, they do have but for the information of everyone the last payment they should have pay to the participants hasn't not been paid yet. It's almost a week now but there is no updates yet in regards to that. I don't know what's the case right now but I guess they should attend their community and be more active.

The rep profile was active just 3 days ago so i think they are reachable. They are sometimes online only that they don't post that often but they also have an active signature campaign that pays relatively well for just 15 posts per week.

I think bitcoin mixing business is profitable if you establish ground. The only problem is the risk involved in this kind of business. I remember the likes of bitblender and bestmixer back then before they had to forcefully shut down, they were making a tone of money.

Only OP can answer that question because its his business and he is the only one who knows the profitability.
IMO, in general mixing service are in demand because people like to maintain their privacy and they love to mix coins, if Chipmixer were able to pay a big budget for their marketing in the forum, that says they are really profitable and it's not impossible for this project to be profitable too.

Seems that the blender team is not so active in this community. Are they still doing good in this kind of business? Curious how bitcoin mixers are doing these days though...

I have the idea to list all detected phishing sites which try to fake Blender.io in the OP. If the list will be composed, it should be allocated with a new section, and easily recognized reminder for readers.

I understand that OP already states official sites and must-thing to check address bar but the list will help as another step to remind blender.io customers.

How about this idea, blender.io team?

users should really be careful in this fake blender website.

original vs. fake

 vs.

too bad for those users who unknowingly used the fake one as more than likely, they will not get their money back. scammers are really getting good nowadays.

and i like this part in the OP :


at least, users who have negative perception on mixers will get the idea that they are really catering their services for all types of crypto users with different needs

If you want to find out more details on bitcoin mixers/ tumblers sites, I know a very good place for you to do it: 2020 List Bitcoin Mixers Bitcoin Tumblers Websites.
The topic gives you a long list of bitcoin mixers and their service fees. As a basic stuff of services, you have to use not too small amount of bitcoin (much higher to minimum amount required by each service) to have cost-effective experience with those mixer services.

What are the fees for blender.io compared to other mixing websites and services we can find,
and what advantages you blender is offering?
I am doing research of all mixers that are available at the market

EDIT: I see that it ranges from 0.5% to 2.5%

Blender.io clone website on the loose. All templates are copied from blender.io with aim of scamming people who may want to mix their coins thinking they are using blender.io


Please, let us all report this phishing/impersonating website so that unsuspecting people can receive warnings when visiting it;

Additional security to protect what comes and goes to you is essential. As one may put it, it's better to use an address once so you wouldn't get linked to it in some way. You would only be worried about that if you are doing something wrong, but it's still an important part. Awesome! Thanks for the update! Privacy FTW.

Is this type of security unique to blender.io?

Introducing a scoring model



We at Blender.io believe that the increasing expansion of so-called blockchain analysis services (BAS) poses the direst threat to the anonymity and privacy of Bitcoin users.

That's why we are starting a set of improvements today by introducing a scoring model, which is intended to fight blockchain analysis services. The scoring model brings a new algorithm of labelling transaction inputs.

The scoring model adds a mixing code based score to each input and recalculates scores each time an outgoing transaction is made, based on the input and output amounts of the transaction proportionally. This approach is similar to the one used for bitcoin labelling in above-mentioned BAS, so it happens that Blender uses BAS approaches to withstand analysis and provide more privacy to our customers.

Starting this update, not only the presence of a mixing code on a transaction input plays role on a decision whether it will be sent to a customer or not, but also it's score.

What does it mean to a customer? There are two main aspects:

    — much more transaction security: the number of mixing cycles for each user now has unpredictable nature;
    — there is no way BAS can now determine if your bitcoins are back to you: even if it happens, it's part in a transaction will be small enough to be a statistically indistinguishable from a random ocassion.

Of course, all this will work for you only if you always use your mixing code.

Blender.io

Hello! Thank you for trying our service! We have important news for our customers:

Looks like the clearnet link is working today, it had been down for the last couple of days.  The .to and the .onion sites were working fine during that time.  I hope it was due to all the traffic the new sig campaign was generating.  

Anyway, I was unaware of blender.io before Hhampuz started the campaign, so I'd say it's working already.  I've been playing with the service for the last couple of days, and I like the simplicity and ease of use.  

I don't normally feel the need to mix my coins, but the service is invaluable when one does feel the need.  It's nice to have blender.io as an alternative to the big boys across the street.  Just having options is also nice, for a while it seemed like their was only one trustworthy service around.

For new user of the service, I think the following point in FAQ is worthy to note:
Sometimes, people who use mixer service for the first time will not notice it nor not read FAQs or ToS, and they save their deposit addresses to use repeatedly.
The Blender.io service only accepts one generated deposit address within 24 hours at maximum. Beyond 24 hours, users have to generate new deposit addresses.

I havent tried their service though but i might consider on testing it up later on.Just got curios for this new mixer when i do also saw their signature.
Blender is the name which do reminds me on the old good mixing service Bitblender.Hopefully this one would able to survive as it operates.

Just come here to say that I tested your services with small amount hours ago and I did received the funds already. Got curious about your services when I see that you have opened a signature campaign. So my review is that it went smooth on my end, even get a promo code for my next try. I didn't do any configurations though, just how it is presented, although I set the minimum service fee to 0.5.

I wish all the best things for the Blender.io service, and with the latest launched campaign managed by @Hhampuz, I believe that the service will catch more attention in the short term. For long term potential growth, it depends on many things, including how long that campaign will last, and how good the service and its customer service are.

Anyway, let's see the new era and potential growth with newly promotional effort.

Dear customers!

We successfully finished updating our beloved Blender.io.

Also, we are pleased to introduce two new features:
Longer mixing delays are available

We added additional options to the delay set when configuring mixing settings. Now you can set a delay up to 7 days!
Additional delay shifting

Blender will add a random several minutes time shift to a transaction appearing in memory pool to make transactions tracing even more difficult.

Regards, Blender.io team.
