    Unijoin is a btc shuffle service needed to hide your transfers in the bitcoin world. Unijoin currently has a minimum withdrawal threshold of 0.03500000 BTC so users are advised to deposit more than the entry threshold plus commission otherwise they will not be able to withdraw funds. The client is asked to set 5 exit addresses. If for some reason even after a delay of two hours the user’s balance is not updated the mixer can contact the support service to take action. For customers who have been inactive for several days it can take up to 15 minutes after logging in before you see outstanding deposits. Transaction histories are automatically deleted within 1 week after that. The program runs on a dedicated server that is openly connected via the Internet you don’t need to do this when using the Tor browser. The Bitcoin mixer is launched on another machine all suspicious activity is monitored and the website is automatically protected in case of any indication that it is under DDoS attack. Yomix : Uses stealth pools to anonymize transactions Mixero : Excellent customer support Bitcoin Mixer : It offers flexible transaction fees and a low minimum transaction limit Coin Mixer : Fast payouts Coinmize : Zero-log policy 1. Yomix – Uses stealth pools to anonymize transactions Yomix is one of the most pocket-friendly easy to use and customizable Bitcoin laundry platforms in the industry. The user-interface is extremely simple and clean anyone who has never before used any such service too can navigate around and tumble Bitcoins easily. No registration is required to mix Bitcoins on Blender.io Its “delay” feature lets you set delays from 1-24 hours which increases your anonymity by providing a gap between the deposited coins and the outgoing ones. As for the fee it’s dynamic meaning you get to choose the amount of fee you’d like to pay the minimum fee being 0.5 and the maximum being 2.5 with an additional 0.0005/address. It’s also one of the rare platforms which provides you with a mixing code which makes sure your previous coins do not get mixed with your newer deposits if you do multiple deposits to the tumbler. The minimum amount you can mix is 0.001BTC while there’s no specific maximum amount as their Bitcoin reserve seems to be quite large. It also has a No Logs Policy and all data is instantly deleted as soon as a transaction is complete; and as for the number of confirmations required it’s 3 for your deposit to be mixed by Yomix It supports 8 addresses for each mix so you can further increase your anonymity. In a nutshell it gives you the power to choose is fast anonymous and totally worth a try. It also supports Segwit and bech32 Addresses with some terms attached. For e.g. only witness version bech32 addresses are supported. Similarly only the addresses starting with the number “3” are supported.Yomix is a Bitcoin mixing service that provides privacy by using the ‘Bitcoin Mixer 2.0’ algorithm to shuffle bitcoins. Unlike other similar tumbling services that mix your coins with the coins of other users this platform mixes your crypto with the crypto bought by them directly from the cryptocurrency stock exchanges. Yomix verifies the newly purchased coins with a scoring system with the help of innovative algorithms and outfoxes such technologies as blockchain volume analysis cluster analysis taint analysis etc. It means that you will receive your BTC back split into random parts and even at the different addresses if needed. Consequently your privacy is protected as there is no connection to you. And it takes up to 6 hours to complete your request. Another privacy feature of this mixer service is that it does not require registration and it does not store logs. All the transactions are digitally signed with letters of guarantee that you can check on the website at any moment. They also provide 24/7 technical support. MixTum.io will charge you a 5 Fee from your transaction as well as a network fee of 0.00015 BTC. The platform provides two versions – for Clearnet and Tor browsers.Yomix supports Bitcoin cryptocurrency bearing no logs policy. It requires a minimum deposit of 0.001 BTC and the transaction fee is 0.5–3. It supports multiple addresses of up to 10 and requires confirmation. No registration is required and it does offer a referral program. Letter of guarantee is provided.And last but not least there is a coin mixer with a number of cryptocurrencies to tumbler named Yomix. At the moment there are three currencies and Ethereum is going to be represented in future. This mixer offers a very simple user-interface as well as the opportunity to have control over all steps of the mixing process. A user can select a delay not just by hours but by the minute which is very useful. The tumbler gives the opportunity to use a calculator to understand the amount of money a user finally receives. The service fee is from 1 to 5 with fees for extra addresses 0.00045529 BTC 0.01072904 LTC and 0.00273174 BCH. Having funds from different resources helps the crypto mixer to keep user’s personal information undiscovered. This last mixer does not offer its users a Letter of Guarantee. Pros: Doesn’t require registration24/7 customer support 2. Mixero – Excellent customer support Based on the experience of many users on the Internet Mixero is one of the leading Bitcoin tumblers that has ever appeared. This scrambler supports not only Bitcoins but also other above-mentioned cryptocurrencies. Exactly this platform allows a user to exchange the coins in other words to send one type of coins and get them back in another type of coins. This process even increases user’s anonymity. Time-delay feature helps to make a transaction untraceable as it can be set up to 24 hours. There is a transaction fee of 0.0005 for each extra address.Mixero bitcoin mixer is one of the few that allows large-volume transactions. The minimum size for a mixing operation is 0.001 BTC any amount below this level is considered a donation and is not sent back to the client there is no maximum transfer limit. The minimum commission is 0.5 with an additional fee of 0.0005 BTC for each incoming transaction. During the transaction you will receive a letter of guarantee as in all previously mentioned mixers.Mixero is one of its kind and requires special mention. It supports Bitcoin cryptocurrency and is clearly unknown on the point of no logs policy. It requires a deposit of at least 0.01 BTC and the transaction fee is 2 along with the 0.0004 BTC network fee. It supports multiple addresses of up to 10 and requires confirmation of 1. No registration is required and it does not offer a referral program. However the letter of guarantee is provided.Bitcoin Mixer as the name suggests is another mixer which lets us mix Mixero. It’s an onion-only service and the lack of a clearnet version increases anonymity. Offers quite a bit of control to the users regarding percentage distribution and time-delays. Percentage distribution can be specified manually while time-delays can only be “selected” from the provided options. Minimum possible delay is 1hour maximum being 24 Hours with multiple choices in between. Although “instant” payouts without any delay are possible as well. A total of 5 output addresses can be specified for each mix. The fee isn’t user-controlled and is set at 1 of the mix. Each additional address costs an additional 0.000001 BTC. They do not store any logs whatsoever. The minimum deposit requirement is 0.0002 BTC smaller deposits are considered donations and aren’t refunded. Pros: It offers flexible transaction fees and a low minimum transaction limitAllows extra payout addresses 3. Bitcoin Mixer – It offers flexible transaction fees and a low minimum transaction limitHow it works: unlike other mixers this site cleans coins with bitcoins purchased by them on cryptocurrency exchanges. Bitcoin Mixer io examines purchased coins using a scoring system with innovative algorithms and the use of technologies such as blockchain volume analysis cluster analysis pollution analysis etc. After that you will receive your BTC back divided into random parts and even sent in different addresses if necessary. The whole process takes about 6 hours. The mixer does not require registration and does not store any logs. After each mixing operation a letter of guarantee is sent and information about it is eliminated after 24 hours ensuring complete anonymity. The service also provides round-the-clock technical support. MixTum io charges a flat fee of 5 of the transaction as well as a network fee of 0.00015 BTC. The program has two versions – for regular browsers and Tor.Another solid Bitcoin Tumbler option Bitcoin Mixer requires a minimum deposit of 0.01 BTC to be made but makes up for this with a lower transaction fee of 2 coupled with a 0.0004 BTC network fee. Support for multiple addresses and customer options is provided with users required to provide confirmation for only 1 address. While there is no referral program available Bitcoin Mixer does offer users with a letter of guarantee for their peace of mind.Bitcoin Blender isn’t as heavily decorated as Bitcoin Mixer as far as the webpage design goes. But the services and reviews are in no way less as compared to any of the top Bitcoin Tumbler services on the web. It’s a service functional since 2014 and offers two different kind of accounts: Quickmix: Requires no login but offers lesser control Login enabled account: Requires you to login provides for more control than the quickmix account. The mixing service is only accessible from its Onion URL and even though it has a clearnet URL it primarily only serves an educational purpose. It’s exclusively a Bitcoin mixing service and supports only Bitcoin. As for the fee it doesn’t have anything specific and charges a random fee between 1-3. This is done to keep our Bitcoins anonymous and more secure rather than tagging them with a specific fee. Although there’s a special program or incentive so to say if amounts worth more than 10 BTC are deposited within a time-frame of 7 days the fee is reduced by half Obviously there also is the time-delay feature allowing us to delay the transaction by as much as 24 hours. As for security it supports 2-factor authentication facilitated with a customized PGP key which ensures only the holder of the PGP key along with the knowledge of the password can access your accounts. It also supports as many as 5 simultaneous deposit addresses which get you the power to deposit unmixed funds by splitting them into more than one single transaction. And finally there’s a no logs policy as well and all the data including deposit addresses and support messages are deleted after 10 days.Bitcoin Mixer is a coin cleaning service that can hide your footprints in the cryptocurrency world. Currently Bitcoin Mixer has a minimum withdrawal threshold of 0.03500000 BTC so users are advised to transfer more than the entry threshold plus commission otherwise they will not be able to withdraw funds. The client is given 5 exit addresses to be set. If for some reason even after a delay of two hours the user’s balance does not update then the client can contact the support service to take action. For users who have been inactive for several days it can take up to 15 minutes after logging in before you see outstanding deposits. The logs are kept for 7 days after which they are automatically deleted. The platform runs on a dedicated server that is openly connected via the Internet you don’t need to do this when using the Tor browser. The Bitcoin mixer runs on a different machine all suspicious activity is monitored and the website is automatically blocked on any signal that it is under intrusion. Pros: Customizable mixing settings for better anonymityZero-logs of your transactions 4. Coin Mixer – Fast payouts Coin Mixer is yet another simple yet trustworthy Bitcoin Tumbler service. And one of the primary differences it has compared to the other platforms on this list is that it can accommodate really “large volume transactions”. Their claims to have Bitcoin reserves of over 2000BTC has been verified publicly source: https://bitcointalk.org/generator.php?topic=1484009.msg15350012#msg15350012 so that also makes sure they won’t be running away with our Bitcoins and adds to their credibility. As for the mixing services the receiving time is instant. Also they’re pretty trusting and need only the following confirmations: Pros: Excellent customer support It has a positive reputation among the Bitcoin community 5. Coinmize – Zero-log policy How it works: unlike other mixers this site cleans coins with bitcoins purchased by them on cryptocurrency exchanges. Coinmize io examines purchased coins using a scoring system with innovative algorithms and the use of technologies such as blockchain volume analysis cluster analysis pollution analysis etc. After that you will receive your BTC back divided into random parts and even sent in different addresses if necessary. The whole process takes about 6 hours. The mixer does not require registration and does not store any logs. After each mixing operation a letter of guarantee is sent and information about it is eliminated after 24 hours ensuring complete anonymity. The service also provides round-the-clock technical support. MixTum io charges a flat fee of 5 of the transaction as well as a network fee of 0.00015 BTC. The program has two versions – for regular browsers and Tor.Coinmize bitcoin mixer is one of the few that allows large-volume transactions. The minimum size for a mixing operation is 0.001 BTC any amount below this level is considered a donation and is not sent back to the client there is no maximum transfer limit. The minimum commission is 0.5 with an additional fee of 0.0005 BTC for each incoming transaction. During the transaction you will receive a letter of guarantee as in all previously mentioned mixers.Coinmize works by removing the link between your old and current addresses. Since the mixer destroys any connection between them your traces of transactions and your identity become untraceable. The main advantage is the low commission. Bitcoin Laundry is a donation platform. They charge no service fees only a transaction fee of 0.0002 BTC to the exit address while transactions from 0.0005 to 38 BTC are supported. You can set 5 addresses and specify what percentage of the total amount will be returned to each address. You can select predefined or random payment delays for each address making it even more difficult to track the transaction. Bitcoin Laundry boasts a “no log” retention period policy and also allows users to manually delete logs with just one click if they wish.Being honest this isn’t the most feature-rich or control-rich Coinmize mixer that’s available out there. However it still averages mixes over 700Bitcoin/day claimed not verified. The coins are claimed to be sourced from mining pools in the U.S China and Europe. Obviously they do not keep any logs. Unfortunately only 1 output address is allowed which is a bit of a downer. The time-delay can fully be set manually. It can be as low as 0 hours or as high as 48 hours. Any other delay between this frame can be set using the provided slider. The fee isn’t randomized neither is it user-controlled. It’s set at a solid 0.1 for all transactions. Accepts a minimum Bitcoin deposit of 0.010BTC. Maximum funds which can be currently mixed stand at 677 BTC. Number of required confirmations depend on the amount. Only 1 is required for mixes below 2.5BTC. For 25 BTC it needs 3 confirmations. 4 confirmations for 40BTC and 5 confirmations for 50 BTC are required respectively. Doesn’t require registrations. Pros: User-controlled time delaysFast payouts

    Water and life Eth Mixer Lightning is a dramatic display of electrical power but it is also sporadic and unpredictable. Even on a volatile Earth billions of years ago lightning may have been too infrequent to produce amino acids in quantities sufficient for life — a fact that has cast doubt on such theories in the past Zare said. Water spray however would have been more common than lightning. A more likely scenario is that mist-generated microlightning constantly zapped amino acids into existence from pools and puddles where the molecules could accumulate and form more complex molecules eventually leading to the evolution of life. “Microdischarges between obviously charged water microdroplets make all the organic molecules observed previously in the Miller-Urey experiment” Zare said. “We propose that this is a new mechanism for the prebiotic synthesis of molecules that constitute the building blocks of life.” However even with the new findings about microlightning questions remain about life’s origins he added. While some scientists support the notion of electrically charged beginnings for life’s earliest building blocks an alternative abiogenesis hypothesis proposes that Earth’s first amino acids were cooked up around hydrothermal vents on the seafloor produced by a combination of seawater hydrogen-rich fluids and extreme pressure. Yet another hypothesis suggests that organic molecules didn’t originate on Earth at all. Rather they formed in space and were carried here by comets or fragments of asteroids a process known as panspermia. “We still don’t know the answer to this question” Zare said. “But I think we’re closer to understanding something more about what could have happened.” Though the details of life’s origins on Earth may never be fully explained “this study provides another avenue for the formation of molecules crucial to the origin of life” Williams said. “Water is a ubiquitous aspect of our world giving rise to the moniker ‘Blue Marble’ to describe the Earth from space. Perhaps the falling of water the most crucial element that sustains us also played a greater role in the origin of life on Earth than we previously recognized.”

    A job for the Webb space telescope kraken tor “We got 53 candidates for anomalies that cannot be well explained but can’t say that all of them are Dyson sphere candidates because that’s not what we are specifically looking for” said Gabriella Contardo a postdoctoral research fellow at the International School for Advanced Studies in Trieste Italy who led the earlier study. She added that she plans to check the candidates against Suazo’s model to see how many tie into it. https://kra31att.cc kra30at “You need to eliminate all other hypotheses and explanations before saying that they could be a Dyson sphere” she added. “To do so you need to also rule out that it’s not some kind of debris disk or some kind of planetary collision and that also pushes the science forward in other fields of astronomy — so it’s a win-win.” Both Contardo and Suazo agree that more research is needed on the data and that ultimately they could turn to NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope for more information as it is powerful enough to observe the candidate stars directly. However because of the lengthy competitive procedures that regulate use of the telescope securing access might take some time. If Dyson spheres really exist what could they be used for? “If you picture ourselves having as much energy as the sun is providing every second we could do unheard of things” Suazo said. “We could do interstellar travel maybe we could even move the entire solar system to our preferred location if we wanted.” But don’t hold your breath because the technology and the raw materials required to build the hypothetical structures are far beyond humanity’s grasp. “They are so big that everything we have on Earth would not be enough to build them” Suazo added. “Freeman Dyson said that we should dismantle Jupiter — the whole planet for the raw materials.” That supercolossal scale probably means that Dyson spheres if they exist at all are very rare.

    ‘Dyson spheres’ were theorized as a way to detect alien life. Scientists say they’ve found potential evidence kraken тор What would be the ultimate solution to the energy problems of an advanced civilization? Renowned British American physicist Freeman Dyson theorized it would be a shell made up of mirrors or solar panels that completely surrounds a star — harnessing all the energy it produces. “One should expect that within a few thousand years of its entering the stage of industrial development any intelligent species should be found occupying an artificial biosphere which completely surrounds its parent star” wrote Dyson in a 1960 paper in which he first explained the concept https://kra31s.cc kra30 cc If it sounds like science fiction that’s because it is: Dyson took the idea from Olaf Stapledon’s 1937 novel “Star Maker” and he was always open about that. The late scientist was a professor emeritus at the Institute of Advanced Study in Princeton New Jersey. Still coming from a thinker who some in the scientific community say might have been worthy of a Nobel Prize early in his career the concept took hold and the hypothetical megastructures became known as Dyson spheres even though the physicist later clarified that they would actually consist of “a loose collection or swarm of objects traveling on independent orbits around the star.” In his paper Dyson also noted that Dyson spheres would give off waste heat detectable as infrared radiation and suggested that looking for that byproduct would be a viable method for searching for extraterrestrial life. However he added that infrared radiation by itself would not necessarily mean extraterrestrial intelligence and that one of the strongest reasons for searching for such sources was that new types of natural astronomical objects might be discovered. “Scientists at the time were largely receptive not to the likelihood that alien civilisations would be found to exist but that a search for waste heat would be a good place to look” said George Dyson a technology writer and author and the second of Dyson’s six children via email. “Science fiction from ‘Footfall’ to ‘Star Trek’ took the idea and ran with it while social critics adopted the Dyson sphere as a vehicle for questioning the wisdom of unlimited technological growth.”

    Broken spheres Dyson died in 2020 before any of his spheres could be found — although they are just one of a dozen ideas that bear his name. kra31 at “As a young scientist Dyson showed that three competing quantum theories were actually the same theory — he summarily ended the competition” said William Press the Leslie Surginer Professor of Computer Science and Integrative Biology at the University of Texas at Austin. He was not involved in the study. “Later he applied his genius to areas of astronomy cosmology the extraterrestrial realm and also the very real problem of nuclear proliferation here on planet Earth. At the time of his death he was recognized as a provocative and creative thinker.” George Dyson also attested to his father’s fascination and comprehensive reach across disciplines. https://kra30att.cc kra at “Taking advantage of a short attention span and an aversion to bureaucracy he contributed to five fields of mathematics and eleven fields of physics as well as to theoretical biology engineering operations research literature and public affairs” the younger Dyson said. “Many of his ideas were controversial with one of his guiding principles being that ‘It is better to be wrong than to be vague.’” The approach of the researchers behind the new study could offer a more fruitful path in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence said Tomotsugu Goto an associate professor of astronomy at the National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan. He also was not involved with the study. “However contamination by circumstellar debris disks which mimic Dyson Sphere infrared signatures remains a concern” he added in an email. “Authors argue that the debris disks around dwarf stars are rare but the 7 candidate authors selected out of 5 million sources are also rare. Despite this the seven candidates warrant further investigation with powerful telescopes for a more definitive evaluation.”

    Why axolotls seem to be everywhere — except in the one lake they call home kraken войти Scientist Dr. Randal Voss gets the occasional reminder that he’s working with a kind of superstar. When he does outreach events with his laboratory he encounters people who are keen to meet his research subjects: aquatic salamanders called axolotls. The amphibians’ fans tell Voss that they know the animals from the internet or from caricatures or stuffed animals exclaiming “‘They’re so adorable we love them’” said Voss a professor of neuroscience at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. “People are drawn to them.” https://kra31f.cc kra31cc Take one look at an axolotl and it’s easy to see why it’s so popular. With their wide eyes upturned mouths and pastel pink coloring axolotls look cheerful and vaguely Muppet-like. They’ve skyrocketed in pop culture fame in part thanks to the addition of axolotls to the video game Minecraft in 2021. These unusual salamanders are now found everywhere from Girl Scout patches to hot water bottles. But there’s more to axolotls than meets the eye: Their story is one of scientific discovery exploitation of the natural world and the work to rebuild humans’ connection with nature. A scientific mystery Axolotl is a word from Nahuatl the Indigenous Mexican language spoken by the Aztecs and an estimated 1.5 million people today. The animals are named for the Aztec god Xolotl who was said to transform into a salamander. The original Nahuatl pronunciation is “AH-show-LOAT”; in English “ACK-suh-LAHT-uhl” is commonly used. Axolotls are members of a class of animals called amphibians which also includes frogs. Amphibians lay their jelly-like eggs in water and the eggs hatch into water-dwelling larval states. In frogs these larvae are called tadpoles. Most amphibians once they reach adulthood are able to move to land. Since they breathe in part by absorbing oxygen through their moist skin they tend to stay near water. Axolotls however never complete the metamorphosis to a land-dwelling adult form and spend their whole lives in the water. “They maintain their juvenile look throughout the course of their life” Voss said. “They’re teenagers at least in appearance until they die.”
