I've spent a small percentage of my stack coinjoining. I think its expensive, but in the end worth it until we get more competition/collaboration or more options in the future
I'm not sure if I regret that. By the time I'd like to spend it, Bitcoin adoption will (hopefully) be much greater and I'll have privacy via Lightning / L2s anyway. On the other hand, maybe on-chain privacy will still be important and I'll be glad that I CJ'd at very low transaction fees.
I guess now it does not matter. I've spent money on far dumber things regardless.
bc you're depending on a third party not to leak your info / metadata with each step of the way. or maybe you want to settle more money than you can effectively with these methods

This is kinda a fallacy. CISA doesn't really make it much cheaper (only around 10-20% because of the witness discount). This also assumes you are just merging transactions into one big aggregate transaction which doesn't actually give any real amount of privacy. To gain privacy from coinjoins you need to do something to prevent amount heuristics (either same amount or hamming weights).
I don't think Taproot was ever slated to have CISA. There are lots of weird edge cases that haven't been thought out and that's why it wasn't added AFIAK.
Thanks for clarification. Maybe this is more accurate: Taproot enabled a CiSA soft fork by adding Schnorr. CiSA was not also included in Taproot because there is still a lot to discuss including which MuSig to use.
MuSig isn't detectable, so we didn't need to decide "which" to use. It was more about making sure we can preserve backwards compatibility correctly and handling sighash flags weirdness
Zero, i get paid to do coinjoins. Stop using centralized services and use join market. Infinite mixing, and other users pay you for the privilege of utilizing your liquidity.
Zero. Although I consider myself an advance user, I am scared about doing something wrong with coinjoins. I also don't want to spend much. Any advice to lose the fear?
Too much baby I wanna spend less
