Are you running a Bitcoin full node on your phone?
Wasabi uses Tor by default for everything. Additionally, it scans the blockchain using BIP157/BIP158 compact block filters, so you don't share your wallet's addresses with any third party servers.
Wasabi supports Coldcard, Ledger, Trezor, Jade, and Bitbox devices. There shouldn't be any migration necessary, the user can just open Sparrow and use his device there. The caveat is that he needs to configure a full node and Tor on Sparrow first in order to match the privacy of Wasabi.
When you spent multiple inputs in the same transaction, that allows blockchain analysis to link your transactions that created those coins together. So, a transaction that uses many inputs will damage your privacy more than a transaction that uses one input.
Ultimately, you have to use coinjoin in order to keep your Bitcoin transactions private. Otherwise, you will eventually have to leak your entire transaction history once it comes time to sweep the dust in your wallet.

John Carvalho has to be the stupidest person in Bitcoin. Or should I say: John Carvalho has to be the stupidest person in 0.00000001
THIS IS WAR AGAINST BITCOIN! Here are the names of the government perpetrators:
"Assistant Chief Michael C. Boteler and Trial Attorney Mary Frances Richardson of the Tax Division and Assistant U.S. Attorney William R. Harris for the Western District of Texas are prosecuting the case."
"Acting Special Agent in Charge Lucy Tan of IRS-Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI)’s Houston Field Office."
"U.S. District Court Judge Robert Pitman for the Western District of Texas ordered Ahlgren to serve one year of supervised release and to pay $1,095,031 in restitution to the United States."
Bitcoiners: Use whatever means necessary to punish these villains so they are never tempted to steal another satoshi.
Ocean is the ONLY pool that censors valid Bitcoin transactions, they literally have the worst block health % out of any mining pool out there: https://mempool.space/mining/pool/ocean
I'm home mining for the first time this winter. A local meetup guy sold me a custom single board S19J Pro that runs on a 120V power supply. It costs me $70 worth of electricity to earn $42 worth of Bitcoin each month, effectively reducing my heating cost by 60%.
I have no use for the device once summer comes around though, so it's definitely just a personal investment into the Bitcoin network rather than a money making opportunity. Also, fuck Ocean, use Braiins pool instead.
Naturally, the most obvious platforms that we could attract talent from are Reddit and BitcoinTalk because these platforms do basically the same thing but they don't have a good incentive model. You can't post images directly in reddit comments and the reply system on BitcoinTalk is so dated and difficult to follow.
Tbh, you don't want to bring in users from Reddit and Bitcointalk on here. Reddit is ENTIRELY filled with people discussing the price, there is nothing of interest posted there whatsoever.
Bitcointalk's earning model revolves around users selling their signature/avatar space for advertisements, and only veteran members are able to display signatures and avatars. This has driven the quality of posting down massively since users will repeat the same reply as each other in every topic while making sure to expand their posts to exactly 151 characters so they reach the quota required for them get paid.
I don't think that SN's incentive model is the only reason that the content here is of higher quality, there's also the underlying moderation team and algorithm that curates the content.
Yep, the writing of the article is a bit sloppy, a few corrections:
- There's no vulnerability in the protocol itself, rather, it's a bug in the clients implementing the protocol.
- I wouldn't categorize this as a "Major" vulnerability since clients can detect a malicious coordinator performing this sort of attack.
Overall, it's good that there's multiple teams implementing the protocol in open source projects, allowing these sorts of issues to be caught.
To increase privacy, he wants to use a silent payments receive address.
If he's a merchant, using a silent payment address won't do anything to increase his privacy since he's already interacting with his customer. If he wants to protect his customers, suppliers, and himself from being tracked on-chain, he should use BTCPay Server's coinjoin plugin: https://docs.btcpayserver.org/Wabisabi/
At the very least, this sounds like a business opportunity for someone to replace the hole left by ibex.
Not exactly sure what you mean. Each coinjoin output is registered with a unique Tor identity, and the coordinator doesn't learn which inputs are associated with its creation thanks to zero knowledge proofs and other crypto magic. There's a (convoluted) metaphorical explainer for the protocol here: https://github.com/WalletWasabi/WabiSabi/blob/master/explainer.md
