Yes you have been open and transparent about Whirlwind and your posts demonstrate it. I think that is what people here appreciate when a team member or owner interacts with them in a transparent manner taking the time to provide explanations and answer questions no matter how difficult to explain or articulate.
As you stated, members only have your word to go by but the reviews and feedback of the website are positive and as your service progresses members will begin to make their own judgements in increasing numbers about the service and quality of service you provide.
As for mixers seemingly launching on a daily basis, I have to say I cannot recall a time here when this many were being promoted via signature campaigns or a time when this many were using ANN threads frequently. It does provide competition for each other but if you have created something unique from your competitors from a technical perspective then they will have to play catch up.
After a quick navigation of the website anybody can see it is simple to use and the Fast or Notes options are extremely easy to select. It is a basic no-nonsense to the point website that is easy to navigate and that is a plus for end users and that should play a very important part as your business grows.
Having said that one of the fears people must have is about sending funds to mixers at the unfortunate time the mixer decides to exit scam (and to my knowledge it does happen from to time because people end up posting about getting scammed). Keeping that in mind this would be a very difficult question to answer but what can you say here and now to give confidence to forum members that a future exit scam is the furthest thing from your mind and what your very long term strategy is?
It's impossible to answer this question in a way that would have any sort of weight and I don't want to appear like I'm asking users to trust me just because I'm writing some messages here. My expertise/intentions will become clear from my actions as time goes on and that's the only way I can prove myself other than decentralizing the service.
I've been very transparent about every detail of Whirlwind, I've built everything from the ground up. I took the time to analyze every aspect of this business and I believe I came up with something unique in the Bitcoin space, something that our competitors don't even come close to from a technical standpoint.
It seems like a different mixer launches every day, but if you have a more in-depth look you will notice that each one of them has some major issues.
Use of jambler.io as their backend/very weak privacy set/ use of Cloudflare/ use of mixing codes which basically means keeping logs.
Even though I could have taken a lot of shortcuts in order to get the service out in 10x less time, I chose to do everything the right way and made no compromises at all.
