With XC you have to trust the mixer isn't logging the data and that the mixer won't steal your coins. Giving control of your coins to another entity is just asking for trouble.

Thansk I appreciate your (and others input here)
So..with DRK the nodes merely witness the change of ownership and verify it?
But with a mixer the coins pass into the mixer (rather than merely being witnessed) and then have to be "allowed" out the other end?
Can you expand?

1.Where exactly is the "mixer"?

2.If the source is open, then would that mean coins could not be stolen?

3.The developer of XC stated "mixers don't steal coins".....but you seem to think they can? So how would a mixer steal coins?

It's simple.

You send coins to a address issued by mixer and mixer has private key of the address issued.

so how mixer steal it? isn't the mixer program to mix/forward the coins? from what i understand you think mixer can just keep/steal the coin or perhaps forwards to different address? but how?

Shutdown computer, lock wallet, diconnect network, power failure.

Mixer program should/will mix/forward the coins.

Owner of the mixer is problem..

Do you know that mixer takes input/coins and waits at least 2 ~ 3 more blocks confirmation before forwards the coins.

True, People steal coins.

DRK is a mixer too and they solve this issue by using signatures which removes the incentive for DRK nodes to steal. We both know that XC can use this same idea to solve the issue too. Funny how you don't mention it though.

You pretend well but your ultimate aim is to make XC look bad, not really to "help".
