How to use Cryptomixer

Six moves, in order. Each step in the Cryptomixer flow exists to close a specific way people get traced, so none of them is optional if privacy is the point.

Before you send anything

Have your fresh output addresses ready, decide on a delay, and know the amount you'll move through Cryptomixer. A mixer can't recover coins sent to the wrong place, so a calm, prepared run beats a rushed one every time.

Cryptomixer — the deposit screen
  1. Prepare a fresh wallet

    Set up a new wallet that has never touched your identity, an exchange withdrawal, or your main addresses. This clean wallet is where your mixed coins will land.

  2. Open Cryptomixer and set your terms

    Enter your fresh output address — or several — and choose your options: the time delay, the service fee, and how the payout should be split. Larger delays and multiple outputs generally mean stronger privacy.

  3. Save the letter of guarantee

    When the deposit address is generated, Cryptomixer issues a letter of guarantee. Save it offline before you send anything. It is your signed proof that the mix was accepted.

  4. Send your bitcoin

    Transfer BTC from your source wallet to the deposit address shown, sticking to the amount the service expects. Double-check the address; a mixer cannot recover coins sent to the wrong place.

  5. Let the delay run

    Wait out the delay you chose. This pause is not dead time — it lets other deposits move through the reserve so your withdrawal can't be matched to your deposit by timing.

  6. Receive and separate

    Your unrelated coins arrive at the fresh addresses. Keep them apart from any wallet tied to your name, and never merge them back with the coins you started from.

Habits that make a difference

The steps above do the heavy lifting, but a few habits decide whether the privacy actually holds. Avoid round, memorable amounts that stand out on the chain. Don't send your mixed coins straight to a KYC exchange account you also fund from your identity. Give the delay real time rather than rushing the withdrawal. And resist the urge to consolidate — pulling every mixed output back into one wallet quietly rebuilds the link Cryptomixer just broke.

What to expect on fees and timing

Cryptomixer, like any reputable mixer, charges a service fee — it funds the reserve and keeps the operation running, and a service advertising a zero fee should make you suspicious rather than excited. Expect a small percentage taken from the amount, sometimes with a randomised component so the fee itself doesn't become a fingerprint. Timing depends on the delay you choose and on network confirmations: a mix is never instant, and the wait is a feature rather than a fault. Never move funds you can't leave untouched for the length of the delay.
