I'm not exactly an advocate of centralized and company-backed coordinators, I find it hard to believe that a company that has to comply with the relevant state's legislation can preserve privacy.

That said, Wasabi's coordinator is transparent, it's simply an entry queue, where everyone can participate with their client.

But the Samourai coordinator, how can I verify that Samourai does not select previously marked entries, how can I verify that Samourai executes the code it has published?

Even his Android wallet is not reproducible.

These are questions I never get answers to from your followers.

I'm curious to see their new decentralized coordinator, I'm sure they will continue to rely on a central entity.

Unfortunately I don't think that decentralized coordinated coinjoins scale, especially blame attribution is super difficult there...

Centralized coordinators are fine, as long as they are only trusted with uptime, imho.

I too don't understand how the whirlpool coordinator chooses which coins are allowed to remix.
