Are people who have funds in the mixer right now shit out of luck?
Probably I wasn't doing any mixing at the moment, so I'm unsure exactly.
This is my question. Docs say it's self custodial, but if you're connected to their Whirlpool server, and the feds take it down...
Might be able to run your own dojo, connect your Whirlpool wallet to it, and you're fine. But I don't know that for sure.
Worst case, it's a donation to the Bitcoin community.
Just use a mixer they said.
How long before payment channel providers on lightning start getting charged with operating a money transmitting business without a license?
Good question.
How long before they start going after SW users xpubs scraped from the seizure? Did they go after tornado cash minnows?
Holy fuck, that would have never happened if they ran something saner, like a Monero node.
Again, let me repeat: too many people are proud of creating problems themselves and then heroically overcoming them.
