Whirlpool Protocol's Major Decentralization Update

The Whirlpool protocol introduces a significant update enhancing decentralization by utilizing the Soroban network for client and Coordinator communication. This shift away from a centralized Coordinator server to automatic server discovery within the encrypted, app-agnostic Soroban network minimizes downtime and disruption, marking it as the "Whack-A-Mole" stage of decentralization. Users are urged to update their Samourai software to the latest versions to maintain compatibility and benefit from uninterrupted service. This update underscores a move towards bolstering privacy and resilience, ensuring seamless operation without interruption for users seeking anonymity in their transactions.

- Soroban, developed by Samourai Wallet, emerges as a pivotal tool for secure, decentralized communication across the Whirlpool protocol.

- With the decentralization update, the Whirlpool Coordinator eliminates reliance on a static clearnet domain for communication, now operating exclusively via Soroban to sustain anonymity and operational resilience.
