Both the testnet and mainnet are back online!
We've updated our business model and will no longer "wipe" the custodian.
Instead: every 4 weeks we will regenerate our signing keys. Coins which where acknowledged with keys from previous periods will have their value deduced by 1% with respect to their original value. To mitigate large discrepancies between the time you have to spend your coins without any additional "decay" there will be a 4 week grace period before any decay is applied.
So you have until the end of current period + end of next period (at least 4, max 8 weeks) to spend your coins without any additional fees.
Let us know what you think!
Maximum amount that can be swapped on Boltz exchange is only 0.1 BTC and that is not nearly enough for most people.
You could always do multiple transfers.
I think that sideshift.a and fixedfloat.com offer larger amount for swapping but they are not trustless or noncustodial, but using any of this defeats the purpose of using mixer in the first place.
Not really though. If you use them through us it will be very hard for them (boltz) to link your on-chain deposit that you have with
us to the payment of the lightning invoice.
Sure, you could also just use your own lightning node and loop your own on-chain funds in to pay the invoice [1] but that is already far too technical for most users.
[1] Not knowledgeable on how private loop is, though I assume that at the very least the Loop server
knows the destination of an off-chain transaction...
Also at that point you might as well just use loop as a "mixer" and discard boltz completely. Much cheaper.
