As I mentioned, there is a non-zero chance Wasabi's systemic address re-use vulnerability will send a mixed output to a previously used change address, that's one reason choosing Wasabi would have been a poor choice. Another is that there is also a non-zero chance that Wasabi's symmetric address reuse vulnerability will include the same address on both the input & output sides of the mix. Additionally, fees paid to Wasabi helped support chain analysis companies; utxos are ground to dust if left to CoinJoin for too long; and now that ZKsnacks' coordinator liquidity has been broken up among several new coordinators, users can enjoy dancing with themselves in shallow liquidity pools that offer no practical anonymity benefits.
Further more, the existence of doxxic change makes no difference when a user is intentionally sending all their outputs to their pre-mix wallet (of all places) and then consolidating them. To even achieve what you've demonstrated the user would have to put in considerable effort to make such a mess of things.
Your example is one of intentionally destructive user behavior and this entire exercise has demonstrated that you are purposefully attempting to misguide people and/or you have little to no grasp on the subject. Despite your inability to identify that example as a blatantly obvious and intentional maneuver to consolidate outputs, you chose to confidently use it as an example to equate the vulnerabilities in one wallet with the deliberate choices made by the user in another wallet. The fact that you have been engaging in tactics such as this for years is disturbing and the fact that you continue to do so after the Samourai Wallet coordinator has been shut down is deranged.
Sender & receiver generate addressess derived from their unique cryptographic connection, so they can see those addresses but not the addresses between the receiver and a different sender.

Yes, he's been off Twitter for years. Since 2021 if I recall correctly. Maybe made it a little ways into 2022.
I like to think 6102 would have enjoyed Nostr & I wish he were here to see it.

If you don't have the patience to sit through a 3-hour recording, I've added timestamps.
Just skip to 00:42:46, you will learn something new today.
Now also available on Spotify & whatever!
False equivalence, asinine assessment. The user could have just spent from their post-mix wallet but instead re-used addresses from their pre-mix wallet and consolidated. The user had to deliberately choose to do this by fetching pre-mix wallet addresses and manually paste them to the post-mix wallet.
Comparing intentional and deliberately retarded user behavior to Wasabi which has symmetric address re-use (same address on the input & output sides of the mix) as well as systemic address re-use (mix outputs sent to previously used change addresses) without any unexpected user behavior triggering the failure demonstrates your continued efforts to misguide and confuse people. You're deplorable and I encourage you to do the world a favor and delete your podcast.

She has a point about the chips, the majority of Bitcoin mining infrastructure is proprietary and closed source; which is exactly why nostr:nprofile1qqsw4eldlh9hnu3327s6lyv5j4ryujd2w63zukjkvu2g72tvzkz6s7gpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqz9mhwden5te0dehhxarj9enx6apwwa5h5tnzd9aqvhsv6z & I co-found The 256 Foundation with the goal of making Bitcoin mining free & open.
As far as Bitcoin becoming a thing that's just held and not peer to peer electronic cash, yeah what she describes seems reasonably within reach of a psychotic power-hungry cartel IF that's what they're trying to accomplish. I don't know if Bitcoin is really the tool they've been waiting for to execute such a nefarious scheme though. Seems to me like they have complete control over the existing financial system and they could accomplish a similar outcome without Bitcoin 🤷
I will say however, that the NgU narrative has arguably been the most dangerous meme in the Bitcoin ecosystem and fuck faces like Saylor have been a net-negative. I've said it before and continue to believe that Bitcoin is just software, a tool that can be used for freedom or a tool wielded for tyranny. The ideas that Bitcoin has already won or that the Trojan horse hypothesis will just magically make the State's monopoly on violence go poof are intellectually lazy and will prove to be the catalyst for making Bitcoin the greatest revolution that never happened.
That's heavy duty and all but I could definitely bring more than 3oz of peanut butter on a plane before 9/11, that is different for sure.
23 years ago today, the CIA orchestrated 9/11 under the guise of a large-scale coordinated terrorist attack. This false-flag event was then used as justification to expand domestic government overreach resulting in:
• widespread invasive surveillance of all communication platforms
• heightened restrictions on access to and use of financial services
• and among many other abuses of power, expanded federal authority over many things like what songs could be played on the radio to how many ounces of peanut butter one is allowed to carry on an airplane.
Not to mention the international implications from the resulting Global War on Terrorism but I digress.
If you're old enough to remember the way life was prior to 9/11 then I think you will agree that the world you were born into no longer exists. The systematic erosion of basic human rights has radically changed the way humans think, act, & communicate.
On this day, I think it is important to remember what life was like in a world before invasive government surveillance, crippling financial restrictions, & hypnotizing fear campaigns. I think it is important to highlight tools like Bitcoin, e2ee comms, & Nostr. They are especially fascinating to me specifically because they are anchored to the free world I came from where my financial transactions were my business and no one else's, where my communications were private, and where I could express my ideas without looming consequences.
If you're reading this then you are already clearly on the path and I encourage you to continue pushing forward and fighting for your freedoms, it is worth all the effort.

6 more days until the first Mining Monday Meetup at Bitcoin Park. Stop by if you're in Nashville and interested in Bitcoin mining.
Nostr gets better everyday. Twitter gets worse everyday.
The date was changed to September 17th for their next hearing.
Join @BitKite & I at Bitcoin Park in Nashville on September 16th for the first Mining Monday Meetup.
Sounds like the next court appearance has been moved to September 17th for both devs. Keep showing your support any way you can 👊
