Best practice | How to consolidate bunch of 100k post-mix utxo
22 sats \ 3 comments \ @martinko21mb 26 Feb privacy
I wonder ( by the time mixes are mixing ), bear with me please. I had couple of doxxed sats in BADBANK and i have mixed them in sparrow wallet. The mix have created couple of 100k utxos.
My question is ( as 100k utxo is small amount to have ), how on earth should i consolidate all the 100k utxos left in postmix ( waiting to be mixed into coldstorage after 5 mixes ) into one "big" 1M utxo with best practise ?
I know stonewall is integrated in sparrow, but no matter what 100k utxo i select, the stonewall transaction is not "stonewalled".
I wonder if there is any privacy risk taken if i just condolitate all 100k utxos after they are mixed 5 times and send to cold storage and i am just overthinking here. Yes, they are joined, but from the outsider standpoint, it's just a anonymous entitty that owns it.
Question under the line, what is your minimum mixes number to mix into cold storage ?

Consolidating these 100k UTXO's will reveal that they are linked in the initial coinjoin transaction. So it doesn't matter hoe many mixes if you join them up again.
What you can do is swap each one individually into a LN wallet and then close the channel.
Onchain or liquid will still be linked unfortunately.

is there really no way to consolidate and at the same time keep privacy from original premix / deposit wallet ? I feel like that is odd. I mean it make sense in way what you are suggesting but still.

I'm not an expert but if I were to have some chain analysis software that has both premix A and later consolidated into a larger pool (premix B), it would simply reveal that your coins were linked.
But after the larger pool mix it will once again be difficult to see which TX is yours.
