Remember all those xpubs Samourai collected?

If you used Whirlpool in the past I would assume those UTXOs have no privacy.

Now, it's good to see that BM has come in defense of Samurai

Not a huge fan of BM, but great article.

How could Samourai Wallet have been "transferring funds on behalf of the public" if they never took custody of user funds?

There is no middleman in a Whirlpool tx.

Funds never leave the user's own wallets. There's no "mixer" repository.

This part of the indictment is a lie.
