@kristapsk, is the transition to taproot addresses planned for Joinmarket?

reply

There have been discussions, but no decision has been made and nobody has proposed even PR to support taproot wallets. Only sending to P2TR is supported right now. https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver/discussions/1469

Thanks. As AdamISZ says taproot isn't needed for vanilla coinjoins but it could be beneficial for the privacy of people using both JM and lightning.

Can taproot replace coin join and other mixing services?

reply

No. Taproot by itself is not a silver bullet privacy tech. Taproot just allows theoretically to do better stuff with coinjoins, etc. Actually taproot can sometimes even worsen your privacy, before there is more adoption of it.

Wow, I had no idea! Congratulations and thanks.
