Which brings me back to the comment in my first post in this thread; mixers are notorious for turning into exit scams.  I haven't ran the numbers, but I surmise that more mixers have exit-scammed than any other service that is promoted through sig campaigns on this forum.  Now, I don't want anyone to misinterpret me again; I have nothing against mixers, and I'm a firm believer in privacy.  I stepped down from a higher paying sig-campaign to advertise for CM because I believed in them and the service they provided.  But mixers are centralized services that can only claim to provide privacy, and we have to trust that they'll do what they claim.  That alone goes against the first things we learn when entering the world of cryptocurrencies; don't trust, verify.  And don't get me started on the often claimed but ridiculous promise of anonymity.  No one can assure your anonymity when you're using an unknown centralized service.
