Whirlpool

[Satko]

Break the link your coins leave behind with built in CoinJoin available on any platform​

Highly Liquid​

Three available liquidity pools gives you the most flexibility when cycling your coins through the Whirlpool.
Choose a pool based on the total amount you are cycling and the desired number of newly cycled outputs that are created.

Extremely Fast​

Designed with a mobile first approach, Whirlpool cycles provide strong privacy protection in minutes not hours.
Whirlpool is designed around many small fast CoinJoin cycles instead of slow single cycle.

Unfairly Cheap​

Stop overpaying, Whirlpool creates perfect CoinJoins at a fraction of the price.
Unlike other services that charge a volume based fee - meaning the more you mix the more you pay - Whirlpool charges a flat fee - meaning you end up paying less the more you mix! - You pay the same Whirlpool fee to mix 1 BTC or 1000 BTC

Math Enforced​

Mathematics is the driving force behind Whirlpool. Every cycle can be interpreted 1,496 different ways. With each cycle increasing interpretations exponentially.



Every Whirlpool is structurally sound with 100% maximum entropy; Never cycling with yourself; Never cycling previously seen coins together; Never any deterministic links between inputs and outputs; And never any address reuse.

Available Everywhere​

While being specifically designed with a mobile first mindset and is available fully implemented within Samourai Wallet, we have made efforts to bring Whirlpool technology to all platforms.
Whirlpool is built in to Samourai Wallet and available as a stand alone desktop app available on all platforms.
Desktop users can access Whirlpool through a desktop app, power user can choose to access Whirlpool through a powerful command line utility.
