 I don't have enough friends on https://coinjoin.nl today, who wants to help me out with a #CoinJoin ?

 So is this just whirlpool with frens? 
 Yeah, and strangers could join too! Everything is routed over Tor so I wouldn’t know who is who 🕶️ 
 So I'm not tech savvy. I've heard several people from the intelligence agencies talk about how there is no encryption they can't break. Is that bullshit? Is tor actually secure? 
 Just think about it. If there were encryption that couldn't be broken then governments wouldn't go through the trouble of pressuring CEOs to implement backdoors. Moreover if this were true, real hackers could do that too and the whole modern tech infrastructure would be open for attacks all the time (which actually is) 
That being said, this doesn't mean it's impossible for a malicious actor to find his way to the encryption keys...    
 Valid. Now I gotta dig a bit. Thanks for the perspective. 
 Exactly, your bitcoin private keys are not guessable from the pubkey or address 🔥 encrypted money! 
 As WabiSabi CoinJoins are non-custodial, it’s literally SHA-256 protected and only with your signature will you be participating. 
 I can't right now but in general I'd be veeeery interested to do this. Been thinking about this for a while
