Whirlpool bitcoin mixing breaks deterministic links to past transactions and provides forward-looking anonymity. This article demonstrates the easiest way to Whirlpool your bitcoin so that you can take steps to preserve the censorship-resistant and permissionless attributes of Bitcoin.
Some of the privacy-enhancing tools built into Samourai Wallet include:
  • Whirlpool, a zero-link CoinJoin implementation
  • BIP47, a reusable payment code protocol
  • PayNyms, unique identifiers that can be used to connect with peers for collaborative transactions
  • Stonewall, a post-mix spending tool that breaks on-chain heuristics
  • Stonewallx2, a post-mix spending tool that looks identical to Stonewall on-chain but is actually made with two peers
  • Stowaway, a post-mix spending tool that obfuscates the amount being spent
  • Ricochet, a post-mix spending tool that adds additional hops between the final payment destination
  • Advanced coin control
  • Separate wallets for deposit, pre-mix and post-mix bitcoin

Here's the Tweet kicking off the (long) Twitter thread announcing this article and describing Whirlpool further:
