Questions, answered without spin

Including the answers that are not flattering.

What does SolanaMixer.fun actually do?

It cuts one link: the one between the wallet that pays in and the wallet that takes out. Your SOL joins a pool of identical deposits and leaves it as an indistinguishable withdrawal. Everything else about your coins stays exactly as public as it was.

What do I have to do?

Pick an amount, save the note your browser makes, send that exact amount, wait, then withdraw to a wallet with no history. There is no account and nothing to sign up for.

What is the note?

Two random numbers generated on the page and never uploaded. They are the only key to your deposit. No reset, no recovery, no operator override — save them before you send anything.

What does it cost?

Roughly 0.001 SOL per note. About 97% of that is a permanent on-chain record preventing a second spend; it goes to the chain, not to us. No percentage is taken.

How long should I leave it?

Longer than you want to. Withdraw straight after depositing and the clock pairs the two transactions without anyone touching the cryptography. Waiting also lets more deposits stack up behind yours.

Why fixed amounts?

Because an unusual amount is a label. Pools accept one figure so every deposit inside is interchangeable. Free choice of amount would hand the matching straight back.

Do I need to connect a wallet to withdraw?

No. A relayer submits the transaction and takes its fee from the withdrawal, so your destination never needs SOL of its own — which matters, because funding it from your old wallet would rebuild the link.

Can the operator tell which withdrawal is mine?

Not from the proof; it carries nothing that identifies a deposit. The genuine risk is a thin pool where most deposits belong to the operator, who can then recognise their own and reach yours by elimination. That number is on the pool picker.

Is using a Solana mixer legal?

Financial privacy is lawful in most places, and wanting your balance off a public ledger is an ordinary motive. The law where you live is still yours to follow — a tool does not change what you owe it.

Where should the SOL go?

A wallet with no history and no future tie to you. Send it straight to a KYC exchange deposit address and you have reconnected both ends yourself.
