I have 0.15BTC right now and I'm not going to accumulate anymore. Most are from coinbase, but I have some from kraken, and P2P as well (not a lot). How to I combine my UTXOs into one without someone being able to see that it is all connected to me?

The act of combining UTXOs is what connects all of these transactions together. So, if your current wallet software allows you to select the specific UTXOs for your transaction, you can send them to your coinjoin wallet one at a time, or send in groups (Coinbase group, Kraken group, P2P group).

Great that makes sense.

Post coin join can I consolidate them?

You can send specific sized amounts in a coinjoin using Wasabi's RPC interface - https://docs.wasabiwallet.io/using-wasabi/RPC.html#payincoinjoin

The creation of small UTXOs from coinjoins allows you to avoid creating change outputs from coinjoins. These small UTXOs won't continue to be split and pile up over time though, small UTXOs will get consolidated back into bigger UTXOs as you continue to coinjoin.

With WabiSabi, users choose their own output amounts. Coordinators can set their own minimums and maximums (at the start of the round).


Thanks for your help.

So if I have some UTXOs from Coinbase and some from Kraken I should not combine these?

Bitcoin's mempool is empty today, now is a good chance to try out coinjoins if you haven't before.

one more question. I just watched BTC Sessions video about using the wallet.

How do we avoid small UTXOs?

Thanks for all that you do Kruw.

I'm curious to know what is the best way to coinjoin my dollar cost averaging UTXOs?

I have about 0.15BTC now in UTXOs after a few years of averaging.
But they are all from Coinbase.

They are of varying sizes.

What is the most private way to coinjoin them? Do I send them all at once to Wasabi wallet? Then transfer it to cold storage from there?

And what if I only want UTXOs that are larger than 0.02 in my cold storage?

Thanks!

Private Stacking

So, how does one stack privately?

HODL HODL, Robosats, BISQ, all use various methods that exposes your name? and you buy small amounts and the UTXOs become unwieldly?

F2F is hard to find and still exposes your identity

Cex? But they KYC. Guess you can buy then coinjoin.

Any other thoughts?

Node Newbie

Ok, so I have set up a node via an old PC.

I have Bitcoin Core installed and Electrum Rust Server. Everything is synced and I can connect to it within my home network. I have also installed VPN and TOR and its running well. When I check for peers it shows more than 10.

The main reason for setting this up was for privacy reasons (and of course to help the network).

But I wanted to know now how this helps with my privacy.

Let's say I get some non-KYC coins. How do I use my own node for privacy if I'm outside of my home network? Do I accept it on a mobile wallet like Blue Wallet, then transfer it to my desktop wallet?
I'm not sure how to go about this?

Is it possible to connect to my node when I am outside of my home network?
If anyone can point me to some resources that would be great.
