Bitcoin tumbling, or BTC mixing or anonymizing is a process people use to make their transactions untraceable and anonymous. This technique is often used by individuals who prefer to keep their identities and transactions private from the Bitcoin network. However, it has been blamed for being used to facilitate illegal activities, making it controversial among…
You already know what Bitcoin mixing or BTC tumblers are. One such Bitcoin mixer is the subject of this Anonymix review today.We’ve been with over a hundred Bitcoin mixers in the last few years. This helped us understand the primary features that make a mixer better (or “not as good”) than others. Here are the…
The popularity of Bitcoin is ever-increasing, and so are the users’ concerns about the traceability of BTC transfers. In the modern world, where every financial institution, including digital asset exchanges, demands the disclosure of personal details, the right to private transactions is lost. That’s why solutions like Yomixer.io are gaining momentum, allowing users to maintain…

Quantum computing is a form of computing based on quantum physics. Where classical computers rely on bits (zeros or ones) to make calculations, quantum computers use quantum bits (qubits) that leverage quantum mechanics to exist in a “superposition”: a combination of zero and one, with some probability for each. A qubit could, for example, have…
While Bitcoin addresses are “pseudonymous” — meaning, they don’t, in themselves, reveal the identity of their owner — they can often still be linked to real-world identities. For example, if you withdraw bitcoin from an exchange where you’ve identified yourself, the exchange knows that the withdrawal address is yours. There are also more advanced techniques…
What Are the Benefits of SegWit? As probably its most notable fix, SegWit got rid of transaction malleability. Before SegWit, an oddity about Bitcoin’s cryptographic signatures made it such that transactions could be tweaked to “look” different, even by people who hadn’t themselves created the transaction. While this wouldn’t make the transaction invalid or change…
The Bitcoin block size limit is a parameter in the Bitcoin protocol that limits the size of Bitcoin blocks, and, therefore, the number of transactions that can be confirmed on the network approximately every 10 minutes. Although Bitcoin launched without this parameter, Satoshi Nakamoto added a 1 megabyte block size limit back when he was…
The Lightning Network is a Layer 2 protocol for Bitcoin, specifically designed for cheap, fast and private payments. As an overlay network consisting of payment channels, Lightning payments are not recorded on Bitcoin’s blockchain — only channel-funding transactions and channel-closing transactions are. This effectively means that many Lightning transactions can be settled with much fewer…
