Due to Segwit 2x fork which is expected Nov 16 we announce that ChipMixer will be taken offline before fork (a day or two) and it will be offline for a few days till fork situation get stable. To avoid same situation as with Bitcoin Cash - chips you receive after fork will not contain bitcoins on another fork (S2X).
How to prepare for fork:
- mix your coins beforehand - you may need them before mixing services get online
- redeem your vouchers beforehand - otherwise you will lose s2x coins
- keep your bitcoins at addresses you have private keys
- keeping your bitcoins at exchange may allow you to sell forked coin at higher price, but you risk non-forked coin
There are still many non redeemed vouchers and about one week left.
what would happen if before site goes "offline", we still have open session waiting for deposit
and the bitcoin deposit got stuck in limbo because
very low tx fee was used
then we couldn't extend it when site goes "offline" for a few days
can we recover it by proof of signature from sender address or something?
