Samourai wallet, how are these reports to CSIS and CSE going? I remind all you gullible people, that the company behind Samourai (Katana Cryptographic) and its main investor, is "Cypherpunk Holdings". Cypherpunk Holdings is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) under the ticker HODL, and on the OTC market under the ticker: CYFRF. And here you have the details of Katana Cryptographic registered in the UK, and the name of its founders who go around playing anonymous with their little masks: Do you also think that the UK security agencies, MI5 and MI6 will allow these activities? Why Wasabi has not been allowed and Samourai has? Think a little bit, you are simply being fooled. If you think these morons are going to give you privacy, textbook Honeypot, ask yourself if on their servers they run the code they claim to run. And I remind you that these assholes continue to collect the xpub of their mobile users, because they have never fixed this? Other wallets on mobile devices have solved it with block filters(Neutrino),Blixt or Breez for example, but Samourai developers will always lie to you and tell you that this is not optimal for a wallet on a smartphone. And their Tor architecture sucks, the connection is constantly reused and does not create new circuits. Privacy can neither be a business nor can it depend on the trust of a third party, just like cryptography.

yes, this is all just fud that makes no sense
Let's see Samourai fans, I think you are missing the point because you are like a cult and have been blinded by Samourai's aggressive marketing. The first thing is that Samourai is a company, the data of the companies are public, I am not doing any doxxing by showing the public registration data of your company in UK. Do you understand now that the mask is all marketing? How is Samourai going to protect you if the government knows who are the owners of the company and its workers? Why wasabi must comply with the law and samourai doesn't? what makes them different? do you think the uk and canadian government will allow illicit activities of a legal company? I understand that you feel offended, it usually happens when someone shows you the truth. It is stupid to use Samourai, using Samourai means trusting a third party, you will never know the code they run on their servers, the best thing you can do is to fork their code and create a community coordinator where several people can certify that the code is running, even so, you will have to trust the reputation of those people. You have solutions in which you are the coordinator (solving the trust problem mentioned above) and are decentralized such as joinmarket and joinstr (still under development). Answer these questions: Coinjoin facilitates illicit activities? Is a government going to allow a company to profit from the coinjoin business by enabling illicit activities? If the government allows this company, on what conditions is it allowed to operate? Again, all this has happened to Wasabi, why not to Samourai? The difference is that Wasabi made it public, question of ethics. View quoted note →
Sorry, isn't the samurai team the one that fuds lightning's privacy model? That's quite the "doing more for privacy than most" angle.
You can’t work for MiTrix as little as your self without being compromised unless licensing to operate And thou shall not to be eligible.
Honeypot it is. Just shuffle your sats through noKYC lightning wallets like Muun or Wallet of Satoshi. By my brain - should be as good as coinjoin. A bit more manual, more hiding behind Tor, VPN, perhaps no KYC sim card. But result is very much clean utxos, I think.
Chat gpt about bip47 that Samourai has to do with notification tx and it’s servers are not true because bip47 is serverless. Samourai wallet just hosts the pic of the paynym and has nothing to do with bip47 notification tx it has its own PM8T address .
I move my funds on chain to my own lightning node, then send through lightning to a Muun wallet (noKYC), then from Muun I can take it onchain to my non-custodial new address. This makes my funds untraceable, or am I missing something? Bear in mind I can have hundreds of noKYC Muun wallets.
I will take your word for it. But I still do not like it picking up the picture from the servers. And I definitelly do not like the fake secrecy like masks of the company representatives just for marketing purposes.
The pic of the bot is derived from your private keys it has nothing to do with severs. Samourai wallet just hosts those pics but if you don’t like paynym.is you don’t have to use it. For instance, you can use a BIP47 payment code that starts with PM8T without using paynym.is
When you move your sats to fund onchain lightning node here you already gave up your privacy unless you opened onchain lightning opening using postmix tools. So that’s #1 step that is most important because some entity knows that this utxo that belongs to you was used to open that LN channel. Also muun is not a lightning wallet it’s actually an onchain wallet with an onchain to lightning swap service. It’s not a true LN wallet, even when you receive LN onchain fees are paid. Also muun charges a fee for failed payment attempts and they simply approximate by paying you LN with a swap onchain balance into LN and they pay an invoice for you. Also using this tool Your LN tx are not private
I think lightning tx are private if I do not have a direct channel between payer and receiver. Lightningdecoder.com does not discover any identifyable information.
A couple of days in a row since #samourai wallet #fdroid repo. fails to update for some Unknown error and nostr:npub1lnms53w04qt742qnhxag5d6awy7nz6055flnmjkr6jg39hm86dlq7arrntp drops this little bomb. I guess there's no thing like running your own #bitcoin node. image View quoted note →
