🔵**What is CoinJoin and how does it improve your privacy in Bitcoin?**
Bitcoin is transparent: all transactions are public on the blockchain. If someone knows your address, they can trace your payment history. **CoinJoin** is a technique that helps protect your privacy by mixing your bitcoins with those of others.
**Hide the origin and destination of your bitcoins**
**Break the tracking of your transaction history**
**Prevent third parties from knowing how much you have or spend**
🟠**How does it work?**
1. **Several people combine their transactions** into a single transaction.
2. **Funds are mixed**, making it difficult to know who sent what.
3. **Each person receives "clean" bitcoins** from new addresses not linked to their identity. **How to use CoinJoin?**
There are wallets and services that make it easy:
- **Wasabi Wallet** (for desktop)
- **Samourai Wallet (Ashigaru Wallet)** (for mobile)
- **JoinMarket** (for advanced users)
🔴**Important**
- CoinJoin **is not illegal**, it only improves your privacy.
- Don't use it for illicit activities (Bitcoin is transparent, and authorities can investigate suspicious patterns).
- Always do your own research before trusting a service.
**🔐 Privacy is a right.**
