How much does Samourai pay you? If you do it for free, you're a fool

Samourai is "katana ltd" and it is a real company...

They are still a company that pays taxes, i.e. they collaborate with the government and need to remain "legal".

It was to be expected that all this would happen, they are pure marketing.

Privacy cannot depend on a third party, and even less on a third party that operates under the laws of the government.

What I consider my top 10 favorite tools that every good computer scientist should handle and I would take with me to a desert island:

- Python (what do you want me to program?)

- Qubes (Privacy by default and attack proof, Tails is inferior sorry)

- LibreWolf (all other browsers are cowardly)

- Fedora Silverblue (If Linus Torvalds uses Fedora it will be for a reason, but I'm more cool and use the immutable version)

- Kali Linux (My neighbor who is hot knows what I'm talking about).

- Tor (I need it to buy quality drugs)

- Joinmarket (Mix to the fourth mix deep, freeze and pay with coinjoin, with this you are both maker and taker and there is no NSA spying on you, leave centralized coordinators who only want your money)

- Hashcat ( The power of the cat, you know)

- Nmap (I always liked having a girlfriend on every port)

- Veracrypt (your usb's will thank you, right Bill?)

You don't know if they report to the government or not, it's a matter of trust if you choose to believe them , and on the other hand they will never be decentralized because they will continue to collect fees centrally so they will remain a centralized business, decentralized is only joinmarket and joinstr.

I don't care about wasabi, centralized solutions are not the solution for privacy.

Samourai will end up like wasabi, intervened unless they already are.

Going to look into this more. Love Samourai, been using it ages. Knew of Sentinel, but wasn't aware of these 2 working together like this. Awesome.

Can you create a seed offline with Samourai???

all data will leak eventually

Your go to Linux distro? #asknostr

Do you work for samourai?

Mix-to-xpub allows mixing to cold wallets, right? 🔥🔥🔥

That's fine to include a new UTXO if you use coinjoin to turn all the UTXOs in your wallet private.

You said otherwise ten minutes ago. Sorry but that’s too stupid for me. Have a good day

Check your last sentence against the original note I reacted too. These are contradictory statements and I said the same like you. It’s not a tool for DCA.

For the initial discussion it doesn't really matter what I think of Monero

I promise you that this will never get enough liquidity to work well. Not to forget that the use case is bullshit. No one how wants to save money in bitcoin thinks: “okay let me store my hard earned money in Monero for some months before I change it in the asset I actually want to but”

Hi Mike,

I am concerned of sharing my ip adress with the pool. What is your opinion on this?

I guess a router based vpn would be a solution 🤔 Currently i am just running mullvad on my devices.

Is there a way to use tor?
