I've been participating at the first part of the campaign so I'll try to focus on recent changes and try to offer some small changes.
I'm mixing it thru the gamma pool. The description of this pools is pretty good understandaple. The arrow that was under the service fees (and disappeared lately) is focusing my attention on it. I would advice to add something like that to transfer delay. It is still set to 2.3 hrs by default and someone might miss this field while trying to get a fast mixing.
You can also move the fee calculator to the upper part of the page (somewhere under the bestmixer code for example) and add a separate fee field to the calculator so user won't have to switch the fee from the order every time he is trying to calculate his optimal fee. It appears only after clicking on it so it won't take much place and it seems easier to calculate the  whole mixing price before you start filling the other fields.
Please, add the delay countdown to the order page.
Everything generaly seems to be fine. Coins were mixed after 3 cinfirmations.

I tumbled my bitcoins successfully using bestmixer.io - I was given a code for future discounts which I appreciate.The fee was reasonable compared to a few mixers out there, And I feel like  I got value for money using this service. I sent 0.00656823 and was charged 0.7664% + 0.00010105.

The website is easy to use and mixes an array of coins, i.e Bitcoin, BCH, ETH and Litecoin. There wasn't any confusion using the website. There is enough information on there to cover every aspect their service, and  it is very noob friendly. The sliders on the order page ensures a smooth experience, especially for noobs. The order page kept me updated throughout the process. I was notified when they received the coins, when it confirmed and finally when it the coins were paid to my address. All without having to refresh the order page.

Thanks for the payment.

I mixed 0.005BTC with 2 outputs, using the discount code I got last time and a custom delay for each one. I like that you're using JS more to it's full potential, with things like having a live updating time left until the coins are sent, instead of just using it for simple aesthetic things (slider to fee options) like some other sites are doing, where having no JS would suffice. The delay seems to be accurate, with a bit of random delay, which is good. Both outputs were sent around 3 minutes later than it should have, which is reasonable.

Your fee estimation could still be improved on. You paid 44 sat/byte, and 36 sat/byte, which is way too high, even if your target is the next block. This would help people trying to trace the coins, as they could focus on the transactions that overpaid. In the mempool right now, there are only 168 transactions paying 40 sat/byte or higher (and 0.77 MB worth of transactions that pay above 1 sat/byte). Like I mentioned in the past review, I think you are needlessly exposing your customer to extra fees. Based on the quoted output fee, someone could likely determine the rough range that your mixer pays, which narrows down transactions. Both mixing transactions were nested Segwit -> nested Segwit, which isn't a bad thing, especially as Segwit adoption grows, but it would help someone determine which coins come from your mixer. Not sure if you were still mixing up change addresses like I noticed last time.

Other than that, the mixing experience was smooth, and there's not much else to change.

Edit: Payment received, thanks.

1st time reviewer here. I sent .005btc to bestmixer.io https://blockchain.info/tx/ed90ad4b7f3f8e9e31414ca58f42e44f7763b102529d56acf29093ae4900144a

Transaction yet to confirm, I'll update this post with my review upon completion.

Simple website to use, nice UI, I didn't have to read any instructions to navigate around the website and mix my coins. For a first timer (I never ever mixed coins before) it was generally easy to do. However, It took forever (almost 2 hours) to receive the mixed coins.

I don't have an idea what the average waiting time is for these things, but if I needed the coins in a hurry, I wouldn't use this service unless off course I missed something, and it could have been mixed faster? Overall, a good experience if discounting the delivery time. I received my "washed" coins without drama, and for me thats all that matters.

Edit: After taking a second look, It seems I set the transfer delay too low hence the delay.

I received the reward and they refunded the service fees. Thanks guys.

English ⬄ Russian Translation Services
This is my second review of Bestmixer

As I wrote in my first one, I never used any mixing service before (apart from my experience with bestmixer). So here I go again. The mixer has saved somewhere my code (with which you are supposed to get a discount) and I didn't have to enter it manually, though I didn't notice that my commission had been lowered for some unknown reason

I should say that the Russian translation is almost complete and much better this time. It is not clear, though, what alpha, beta and gamma pools actually mean in terms of mixing quality and user experience (yes, I read the OP and tooltips). So I'm not sure if mentioning them is really required or important. Maybe, for some people it is an interesting aspect and feature worth mentioning as well as using but for me it is kind of extraneous information (which can be confusing to some mixer-illiterate people like me, or even scare them away)

Anyway, I was using an alpha pool and everything went smooth as (never) before. I sent like 0.01 LTC to the mixer's address and set 35 minutes for delay. After the set amount of time had expired, I received my mixed coins into my wallet without any further delay (in fact, I had to wait a few minutes after the timer had run out but this is a minor issue and likely linked to low pool reserves)

Update 1: I read the info about the pools in the FAQ and now it seems clear what they are up to, lol
Update 2: Payment received

Link to my previous review: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.33170822

I was glad to test BestMixer.io again and... I must admit that I'm satisfied again. The whole process is still very easy and anyone should be able to use BestMixer.io service without any problems. It is great to see bech32 address support! Thank you contributing to the network by allowing users to select native SegWit addresses! It is becoming more common these days.

At first, I didn't understand the idea of coin pools, but thanks to the explanation on your website, it was fairly easy to understand. It seems to be a good idea which will improve the privacy. I have used Alpha pool for the purpose of testing.

The new main page contains a lot of important information and most importantly, a video explaining the whole process. I am actually surprised that many people still believe that Bitcoin is completely anonymous. If it was then what would be the purpose of mixing services? I also like the new resources tab. It includes useful links for people who are still not sure whether they should choose your service. It would be nice to see a video in the future which would be a step-by-step guide on mixing coins on your website.

The updated stength meter seems to be more accurate and helpful. Moving the fee calculator before creating an offer is a great idea! Why don't you show it by default?

There is one thing I would change. You should allow you clients to enter the desired transfer delay. Sliders do not offer 100% accurancy. You could put an input box here:



Are you going to implement more languages? If so, which ones?  It was definitely a good idea to add other languages than English. Some people might prefer to use their native language.

Overall summary of my experience with BestMixer.io

- fast and easy to understand service which works without any issues,
- great team of developers who are doing their best to make BestMixer even better,
- newbie friendly interface and a great explanation of how mixing works in a form of video,
- received coins are not related with the ones that were sent,


Edit: I have received my review reward and the fee I paid back.

The site idea and content is pretty good!

I start testing this mixer, Sent around 0.005BTC.
Settings: "Service Fee" to 0.6, "Delay" to 1.30 H

Site speed, UI is good.
I think if you made the fee calculator before starting the mixing will be great, Add required number to confirm, Write the time of arrive like: "You will get 0.1 CoinName on 21.03.2018 01:25:00 to CoinAddress", Add option to control TX fees..

After using the site for a while it became very slow!

Edit: reward received, Thanks BestMixer.io team!

My review after testing the new update...

Settings:
   - Coin: BTC
   - BestMixer code: The code of my first mix with 15% off.
   - Service fee: 1% (Beta Pool)
   - Transfer delay: 1 Hour.

Site performance:
   - Speed: The speed has developed and the site has become faster than the first.
   - Connection: Fast and stable.
   - Design: Simple and responsive on many devices.

Changes / New features:
   - Coins: The variety of currencies (BTC, LTC, BCH, ETH soon) makes it one of the best mixing sites!
   - API: This important feature makes the site unique and easy for developers who need this important tool for them and building apps.
   - Pool selection: This feature is a good to select the suitable fees for the mixing.
   - Fee calculator: Making it in before order creation is good for the user experience. After making the order, The information which showing the status of the transfer and when it will reach the address is pretty good (I think you considered my suggestions Cheesy )
   - Strenght Meter: Good, The instructions are so good.
   - Statuses during order processing: Good.

More ideas to do:
   - I think you can make an app for Android/IOS.



Edit: reward received, Thanks BestMixer.Io team.

Tested the mixer with a few BCH that I had left.

First positive point: showing the address in both CashAddr and Legacy format. Since my Nano S doesn't support CashAddr addresses, I would have to convert the address before sending the coins. This is good for the newbies who don't know how to convert their address to the new format.

Again, I like how the website is very user friendly and has all those cool animations, but a simple version that doesn't require js would be appreciated for those who are more paranoid.

I set a delay of a few minutes, 2 receiving addresses and choose a higher fee to receive the coins from the Beta Pool. There is not much to be said about the new different pools feature because I can't confirm if you are really using different pools of coins for each one of them (Gamma and Alpha), and if there is any real advantages on paying higher fees for them. But I'm believing on you for now.

I'll edit this thread when I receive my coins.

And a quick fix: In my Letter of Guarantee, it's written "This service will be only available for a BITCOIN-CACHE (BCH) transfer received from [...]" where it should be BITCOIN-CASH.

Edit: I received the mixed coins after the delay set.
Edit2: I confirm that received the 'payment' for my review.

This is my first review of the site, and I would say I like the overall design of this bitcoin mixer website, everything looks simple and clean at first sight. I really enjoyed watching the video too which explains how bestmixer.io can allows bitcoin users to achieve a better privacy and remain anonymous by using bestmixer.io service.

The fee calculator is also a very useful tool to check on how much fees the users needs to pay before mixing the coins, and it is also a good procedure to ensure the users have read the terms and conditions at step 3 before mixing their coins.

It is good to see the site having the mixing service available for Litecoin and BitcoinCash too, I guess the mixing service for Etheruem will be launch on the site soon as I did saw a ( soon! ) notice on the Ethereum logo.

Edit: I have sent some bitcoin for mixing and everything went well, I have also received the payment for the review, thank you.
