Re: WasabiWallet.io | Open-source, non-custodial Bitcoin Wallet for desktop
If I have .0007 and .0004 but Whirlpool requires a .001 standard denomination, then I must consolidate these inputs in tx0, revealing they are owned by the same wallet. This also creates .0001 in leftovers that can continue to be traced to future transactions.
Lol, what? So it's Samourai's fault if users consolidate inputs together even before they go anywhere near Whirlpool in the first place?Since you can't spend this leftover amount anyway, why not just add it to the mining fee?
You can absolutely spend it. If it's large enough, coinjoin it in a smaller denomination pool. If it's too small for that, swap it for Monero or for Lightning. Easy peasy.How is it nonsense? Since the Samourai and Sparrow clients don't use Tor or a full node by default, it causes all of the users with default wallet setups to unknowingly participate in sybil attacks against any Whirlpool users that change all of the default settings to prevent their IP address and xpub address from being leaked.
That's not what you said. You said that whirpool doesn't provide "any anonymity at all", which is clearly false. Wasabi enforces privacy by default with Tor and client side block filters, preventing any IP addresses or xpub addresses from being leaked by honest users, even by accident.
But handing all your addresses and UTXOs directly to a blockchain analysis company. 
Of course I'm ignoring it because it's a stupid point, everyone already knows you shouldn't reuse addresses, it's in the Bitcoin whitepaper:
Right. So address reuse is stupid, but when Wasabi reuses addresses, that's ok?If this input received absolutely no privacy then, prove it. Tell everyone which input(s) belong to its owner: https://mempool.space/address/bc1qrmmypw3g2ds4aqgh3nqc59qhdp9qk779x2zlru
I'm really don't think you want to play the "cherry pick individual transactions" game, but since you started it, then how about this one: https://mempool.space/tx/dae13b2d015587a3033d7ab7949a7efa6d6ed7aa782168b0651ab37a2d8390f8There is exactly one input which could have created the 6.46652537 BTC output. Zero privacy gained.
That 6.46652537 BTC output is then coinjoined a second time with Wasabi, and again, there is an output of 4.39250624 BTC which could only have come from that input. Zero privacy gained.
Great job Wasabi!
