What changed:

• The site design has been improved.
• Added Russian interface language.
• The FAQ section has been updated, answers to the most common questions to the service support have been added.
• Added tips sections Common mixing mistakes and What to do in case the bitcoins are not arrived?
• It was decided to close the integration of new API partners. Cooperation with existing partners will continue.

We at Blenderio believe that the increasing expansion of so-called blockchain analysis services (BAS) poses the direst threat to the anonymity and privacy of Bitcoin users.

That's why we are starting a set of improvements today by introducing a scoring model, which is intended to fight blockchain analysis services. The scoring model brings a new algorithm of labelling transaction inputs.

The scoring model adds a mixing code based score to each input and recalculates scores each time an outgoing transaction is made, based on the input and output amounts of the transaction proportionally. This approach is similar to the one used for bitcoin labelling in above-mentioned BAS, so it happens that Blender uses BAS approaches to withstand analysis and provide more privacy to our customers.

Starting this update, not only the presence of a mixing code on a transaction input plays role on a decision whether it will be sent to a customer or not, but also it's score.

What does it mean to a customer? There are two main aspects:

• much more transaction security: the number of mixing cycles for each user now has unpredictable nature;
• there is no way BAS can now determine if your bitcoins are back to you: even if it happens, it's part in a transaction will be small enough to be a statistically indistinguishable from a random ocassion.

Of course, all this will work for you only if you always use your mixing code.

Regards,

Blenderio

Dear customers!

We successfully finished updating our beloved Blenderio.

Also, we are pleased to introduce two new features:

Longer mixing delays are available

We added additional options to the delay set when configuring mixing settings. Now you can set a delay up to 7 days!

Additional delay shifting

Blender will add a random several minutes time shift to a transaction appearing in memory pool to make transactions tracing even more difficult.

Regards, Blenderio team.

We are happy to announce that we have launched a new clearnet domain for our service: blender.to is now online.

You can use any of these domains for your convenience, they are fully equal. It will help to prevent issues with our clearnet domains availability in future; if one domain fails, another one continues to serve your requests.
