It is one thing to say that business X may have stored customers' data, it is another thing to say business X definitely kept customers' data while we have no proof of that. All we know of ChipMixer is that the mainstream media claimed the authorities have seized the owner's hard disks. The authorities never said what those disks contained. It may have been customers' data or it may have been the indexed bitcoin blockchain for easy searchability.
Or it may have been 4k movies (like Angelo claims)? Is that a serious argument?
There's a higher chance (never said 100%) of keeping customer data (especially if it's a honeypot), rather than keeping worthless 4k movies (we're not talking about Netflix, that's pretty much obvious).
Selling data is the new goldmine for many companies. I thought that was common sense.
Besides, anybody who uses a centralized service should already know the risks of them keeping a record or even being a honeypot. Be it ChipMixer or Wasabi centralized coordinator which we know for sure is working with anti privacy companies and actively censoring transactions.
I agree with that. Government honeypots have existed for a long time.
Centralized services (mixers, CEX) will always be shady by their own nature, so people shouldn't trust them too much.
Saying "mixers are good, CEX are bad" is the very definition of being biased, especially when you make money from shilling them.
I would say the same if someone appeared with a CEX banner and tried to shill that business.
He doesn't care. He's busy trying to prove I'm having confirmation bias, because I had the audacity to call him biased in our local board.
Angelo, come the fuck on, you visit this board to advertise shady centralized mixer services and you call me biased?
I don't visit this board to make money and you know it. I only visit forums for discussion, unlike you.
Aren't you biased? Don't you have a
conflict of interest?
Be honest, you made $1500/month via ChipMixer. Don't make me post screenshots.
I have made $0 from forums. I don't mind if you make money, as long as you don't have the audacity to call me biased, even though you're biased and I explained why.
