@m2017 It is not a good idea to totally trust a crypto tumbler service, it's better to also make use of 2-3 privacy services if want to have a solid clean BTC.
@SynchroniceThe long existence of a Bitcoin tumbler is not what is important if privacy or BTC cleaning is the top priority because the said mixer is still never shut down because they are yet to have an issue with the authority.
Bitcoin mixers are constantly under pressure, right? So, when mixer provides mixing service for years without scam accusation and manages to survive for years under the pressure, that automatically makes me to choose that over brand new one.
Your reasons are clear but let me clear your doubt Bitcoin mixers are not actually under pressure and for the record, they are recognized by
FinCEN which also identifies it as a technique invented to avert others from tracing the transmission back to its source.
A certain mixer can be only under pressure if fails to follow the rules and regulations of FinCen for cryptocurrency related business models or mixer coins that are on the radar of the government agency.
If privacy is your priority, then I would say that this service is absolutely trust based one because you never know whether you are an user of a compromised website or not. So, I don't understand what's your point? Logically, isn't it better to keen towards old, well-established service? By the way, if you wanna hear my opinion about new mixers, I think Sinbad.io will become a new chipmixer but it's still early to speculate anything.
My point is that using an old or new mixer is not enough if privacy is a top priority, yes the aged Tumbler company top priority but to be safe it's better to use 1 or 2 privacy services after using a mixing site I made this statement base on advice once provide by
Theymos "You should always operate with the expectation that any anonymity system you use will eventually fail you. "
After operating like that is when you get total clean coin.
