UTXO split has already been implemented, this would be an automated mix feature which builds on that. Its different legally than coinjoins or mixers that mix funds with other users. It only would mix the user's own funds in their own wallet.
I am not a lawyer
It may also be seen as enabling obfuscating records
Personally i would think it best to just avoid any such issues
The UTXO splitter is good
it is great if it also splits to new addresses
Fields the transaction did not carry are omitted. Open the payload to see the bytes as stored.
1aUt6NCxtVcFg9aZRqKboQX7XVY4HjRpF UnverifiedIts only illegal if you are trying to evade the law, not if you are just looking for privacy.
Yes, correct
It would only take 1 user to do this
and bring unwanted attention
would simply not be worth the risk TBH
there is little benefit to its use
just mixing coins between own accounts
you could even lose privacy
as all accounts then get linked
Splitting coins to new fresh addresses provides better privacy
The potential downside, far outweigh the upside
Users have to be smart about UTXO management, and this is where the freeze coin feature comes in handy. If you don't want to merge outputs, then freeze those coins, or send to a new wallet account. Electrum wallets can have multiple separate accounts.
Yes, all that is VERY useful
where as mixing between own addresses is not IMHO
