If I was the Wasabi Team and a random guy came out absolutely destroying the last remaining pieces of the reputation of my Product AND Team while most of my Customers think he is possibly part of my Team, I would officially announce my Team has no relationship whatsoever with Kruw.  Even if Kruw was a Contributor.

You have it backwards: When I exposed you as a scammer, that destroyed your reputation, not my reputation:

You never provided evidence I am a Scammer.  Where is the evidence?

Here's a direct quote of you luring someone away from keeping custody of their coins and keeping their data safe with Wasabi and luring them into depositing their coins into the Chipmixer scam:

Quote from: PrivacyG
Quote from: Mobber
Is chipmixer on LN?
No (last time I checked at least, it was not).  It is just a website offering you Mixing services.  If you want further privacy, use it through Tor with no JavaScript.  Links to the website can be found on this thread under LoyceV's posts.

You need a lot of coin management education in order to keep your privacy levels up once you mix your coins.  Particularly since your coins have a very clear, evident trace linked to your real identity.  Once you break this link, creating alternative links will be easy.  One mistake and your identity is linked back to the mixed coins.  Does anyone here have some sort of documentation on that?  Wasabi used to have a great privacy educational doc, but I can not recommend them anymore due to obvious reasons.

It does make you wonder exactly what his frame of mind is when he behaves in such ridiculous manner. He can make it clear that he is or is not a paid employee of Wasabi Wallet creator zkSNACKs but is actively avoiding it. If he makes it clear he is not an employee of zkSNACKs it might result in him being kicked out of the BTC Prague event since anybody can contribute to anything therefore his "Contributor to Wasabi Wallet" claim will mean nothing.

He is totally deluded to not only claim zkSNACKs shut down last month but only to repeat the claim after I pointed out to him that was not the case. Not only that, when he makes pointless walls of text in an effort to deflect he only brings himself down further.
Either the Wasabi Team has absolutely no knowledge of good Marketing or Kruw is part of them.  If I was the Wasabi Team and a random guy came out absolutely destroying the last remaining pieces of the reputation of my Product AND Team while most of my Customers think he is possibly part of my Team, I would officially announce my Team has no relationship whatsoever with Kruw.  Even if Kruw was a Contributor.

On a side note, I find it fascinating how Kruw still has not answered your question at all.

I know exactly what it means, it is however neither amusing nor even a disappointment that you have deliberately tried to appear far more close to zkSNACKs than you actually were. The way you have been posting in the forum has a pattern. I think you already know many will never forgive you for the personal attacks and insults you threw towards a member of the forum when it was uncalled for.

On a different note, it would be better as it would cause less misdirection if you removed the "Contributor to Wasabi Wallet" tag in the BTC Prague promotions as the "observer of Austrian economics, game theory and Bitcoin privacy" does suffice.

Anything to say on this Kruw?

Not really, I found it amusing that you don't know what the word "contributor" means. You could have simply navigated to my Github profile for examples of my contributions: https://github.com/Kruwed

For some reason Kruw continues to claim zkSNACKs had shutdown last month but in reality it operates and continues to update Wasabi Wallet.

Kruw has labelled himself as a "Contributor to Wasabi Wallet" without explaining what that means. With him failing to even answer the question or address the point and not bother explaining what it means no matter how many times you ask, shows he is very keen to not comment on it. If that is the case, he clearly has something to hide.

How difficult can it be for him to explain what his relationship with zkSNACKs is and to explain what he means when he claims to be a "Contributor to Wasabi Wallet".

Why is that your service is down so often? According to Wabisator atleast?

My server has been DoS attacked for several weeks now, this is disrupting the detection of some of the trackers. Still working on fixing it.

How much smaller can i go?

Im using your coordinator, default is 21, can i set it lower and connect? doesn't everyone else in the group also need to lower their setting in that case? if i select 5 and the others have 21 and we never reach 21, then no gets included in the coinjoin?

The minimum input count for my coordinator is 50, so that means anyone who has a min input value set between 5 and 50 can still join. If you change your settings to require a min input count of 51+, then your client won't join the round.

Min input count was too low. Anyone has input on how to solve this and what it means? I have relatively large amount of btc, so it shouldn't be a problem. What am i missing?

If you are seeing this message, that means that the coordinator you chose is creating rounds that have a lower minimum input count than the one you specified in the coordinator settings. Clients require a minimum of 21 inputs in a round by default:

https://i.ibb.co/6rtjnJ3/image.png

If you don't mind participating in small coinjoin rounds, then you can decrease the min input count in your settings to use the coinjoin coordinator you already selected. If you want to ensure you only enter larger coinjoin rounds, then you would need to switch to a new coordinator that requires a higher minimum input count.

Those are my sentiments exactly. All I wanted was for him to state it by his own admission.
He owns the ability to answer to a basic Yes or No question, but he has clearly avoided this question in particular for years, along many others, while continuing this 'where proof?' childish behavior for what ever reason.  This is clearly a question he is trying his hardest not to answer.

But that's his decision, and although he might be hiding something, he truly doesn't owe us anything if he wants his identity hidden. We merely need to accept that he's simply a "contributor" for zkSNACKS. But if anyone wants to meet him in person, you can introduce yourself and ask him his name and what his actual work is in zkSNACKS, you can do that in Prague.
It is inevitable his identity will not be hidden if he ends up in the BTC Prague event therefore I see no logic why that would be a factor to consider but the pertinent issue is more to do with the fact he his identity or any other details will remain as anonymous as before if he were to claim to be an employee of zkSNACKS. Furthermore, the same can be said if he were to go on to state he was not (and never was) an employee of zkSNACKS.

I'm not defending Kruw, but that, ser is such an irresponsible statement.


If you've delved into the source code, verified everything, and seen there's no problem, then kudos to you, and you have my respect. But, I'm pretty confident that the 99.9% of the users of any product won't do this. Most will simply download the binaries and, at best, verify the signature.

If you haven't verified the source code, then you need to trust the people who have written and studied the source code. Allow me to not trust liars with my privacy software.


The point is the project is Open Source, and therefore anyone can audit the code. If you say that Kruw can't be trusted with a single line of code - suggesting that Wasabi might have "something nefarious" in its codebase, then I would say that the code is Open Source. If then Kruw is deliberately nefarious with Wasabi, then it would be noticed sooner or later. OR for the people who want to prove that Kruw is a bad actor, then start auditing the code now.

Can you make an argument without resorting to whataboutism for once?

Why should anyone accept your attempts to blame and shame in good faith when everyone knows how low your standards are for Chipmixer, Whirlwind, and Mixtum? What is the exact accusation of "lying" you are making here? The entire code is open source, nothing is more honest than that.

So you only trust Chipmixer (who scammed everyone), Whirlwind (who scammed everyone) and Mixtum (who said they will confiscate your deposit at any time for any reason without assuming any responsibility whatsoever):

Quote from: Mixtum

You probably can't trust a single of code from Kruw's contributions/work in closed source project/proprietary software - IF he did any of that. But in Wasabi I believe all code/contributions from all developers are Open Source, no?

Exactly. There's never trust required since Wasabi is open source.

TwistyPhrasy will never answer a question that will make Wasabi look bad, and there really isn't any way to explain why would zkSNACKs buy information from chain analysis company, if they think it's inaccurate.

(Laughable) Answers to these questions have been given in here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.60518076. To me, the TLDR is that you can't trust a single line of code coming from these people.

It's understandable that people ask questions because there's doubt, but let's stick with the facts and avoid mud-slinging.
