Why would answers to questions like what are good mixers depend on whether people are advertising them in their signatures or not?
I didn't mention signatures, but promotion in general. OP asked, "I was just wondering if there is a bitcoin mixer that is considered reliable and safe to use?"
So, the answer following the rules of the forum would be something like:
I suggest [banned service] because of the low fees and they've been pretty reliable so far, at least based on personal experience. But also [banned service] or for example [banned service] have a good reputation and provide good support.But, can altcoinstalks to be used as one of trusted source to judge the trustworthiness of a project? not every users will agree.
It seems that everything is at the beginning there. I hope that the critical number of users who will have enough strength to give a real evaluation of a service can be gathered. For now, we're a long way from that.
