Tumbling?

Is tumbling really important if you're just sending from localbitcoins to a electric wallet then to the market wallet? I heard it was important if you were withdrawing. Because you can use plausible deniability if the wallets on darknet don't have your name, you can just say you sold it to someone you met on the streets.

Check out the sidebar on the noobs sub for a good discussion of tumbling. Personally, I'm ambivalent, and I don't tumble. You'll have others here yell about me being low hanging fruit. But I will say that it's none sense that if you do it you do it only for withdrawals. You could have been given that money by some guy on the street.

I mean for you it's not entirely necessary. The coins aren't directly tied to your name. Now if you don't tumble, the path of your coins can be tracked and followed. Some people don't like this, I am one of them. I would much rather the path of my coins be obfuscated. If you use a lot of the same wallets and have your seeds written down this can be a huge benefit to you whether or not the coins are tied to your name.

In the end tumbling is a personally choice based on your situation.

Its a pretty split decision on here but theres really no need for it. People say it makes your btc untraceable so you dont get caught. But, I have never heard of a reported case where a person using the dnm was busted because of btc and there have been reported cases where btc sellers such as coinbase have banned users for sending there btc to coin tumblers. And there have been many reported cases of people using tumblrs correctly and not recieving money. that said, I personally have never tumbled my coins and dont ever plan on doing so but its up to you. like all advice take this with a grain of salt.
