I'm curious why people are still using this service when it seems pretty clear that it doesn't work. Is your mixer different than others in some way or did a university student just ruin your entire industry?

The thesis is from December 2017, I read it a long time ago and it does not mention Bitcoin Blender, they attack Coinmixer.se, not Bitcoin Blender.

The attack it describes requires that the mixer publicly publishes statistics on how many mixer transactions they have done over the last week (which I don't)
"In all mentioned attacking scenarios, we assume that the attacker is able to retrieve publicly accessible statistics which may be published through the centralized mixing service."

It then mentions some other flaws of Coinmixer.se necessary to identify their transactions, the most important was that they used a static transaction fee for all withdraws, on Bitcoin Blender each withdraw sent have a randomized transaction fee.

Coinmixer.se also always set a locktime of the current block on their transactions, on Bitcoin Blender it is randomized if locktime is set on transactions or not.
Further Bitcoin Blender also randomizes if RBF is to be set on the transactions sent.

Oh yeah. How's that working out now? Obvious scam is obvious. Sorry to hear people have lost money on this.

That is a much better Idea but yet again Monero is a better choice than grin.

Really? What exactly makes Monero better than GRIN? Please pinpoint that for us.
