LOL, be patient young padawan :) if you think authorities are not currently investigating cryptos, maybe you should read the news more often outside your daily crypto propaganda :p they are onto you, and when you find out, it will be too late, you and your drug operations will be "clipped" :)

Maybe you could ask the FBI and DOJ directly, they will show you the evidence :) oh wait, you are not allowed to see those evidence, while there is an ongoing investigation :p

then explain why on the dark net you can only pay in bitcoins or cryptos :p the rest is small traders speculating on trading platforms, the main payment use case is for illegal trades of illicit goods,

that's exactly because it's all hidden they can get away with it, duh! thanks for proving my point :) I suspect the authorities, like the Silk Road thing, are letting it ride to catch as many fishes as possible if you get my drift ;)

and Paypal has been known to block accounts if they have any suspicions on the transfer activities, even worse for non-US clients or non-US funds. If they feel you are abusing their system, and not being a real "client", they will terminate your account and take the money so you can bet that...

I did bring other arguments, you just chose to ignore them and not address them, there is no technology superiority with blockchain and crypto, only a fool think there is :) and criminal money is at the center of "anonymous" transfer, and the only use case for starting cryptos, it's all about...

you are being very naive here :) all banks follow the same compliance procedure internationally, simply because they will be held responsible in criminal terms if they don't. Yeah, it's crazy. Even with good lawyers, it could take weeks or months, and no good lawyer is going to take the risk to...

they can't cash out because compliance in any banks are going to question the source of funds, and since cryptos is all about opaque and "anonymous", good luck explaining your great moves to a crypto clueless compliance officer. I just got blocked by a bank for a small $5000 transfer for a...

you can't ignore it, but you can't believe it will change things for the better, because it won't I think cryptos are an interesting topic that bring a lot of societal issues and twisted arguments, the most interesting topic on tech for the last 10 years for sure. The consumer tech world has...

satoshi doesn't even exist, it was an invented character for a use case by one of the Australian fraudsters that started BTC (Australia has a known mafia in financial services serving SE Asia) there has been plenty of opensource decentralized and encrypted tech for the last 20 years, nobody...

but that's the problem, there is no tech behind it. They are trying to "IP" their algos, but at the end it's not producing anything except garbage. It's like a "FOR NEXT" loop in programming languages, it's going in circles. I don't think the tech is here to stay, it's a fad, until a big...

no, but crypto fans probably are addicted to the Kool Aid, so perfectly appropriate :p

Cryptos not illegal? in China they are :) and soon to come here, they should be made illegal because it's full of frauds and manipulation, sucking in poor clueless souls in the process. Remember pennies stocks scams? a lot of OTC brokers got rich, see the Wolf of Wallst, but at the end it was a...

I guess you could be called an idiot for not engaging into the drug trade and make millions :) it's how you make it that is important, not the means to make it a bit like winning Olympic medals without taking drugs :p

thanks for proving my point LOL :)

people never learn, crypto idiots deserve every losses they make on those stupid "investment"

again, living in your bubble doesn't mean it doesn't happen in the real world, dummy. Living in Singapore, the mecca of money laundering and tax fraud, yes you can get away with a lot of things there. And before you ask, yes I have lived in Sing as an expat :)

that doesn't make sense for you maybe, but that's not the point. It doesn't matter what you think what should be right. It's how the system works, no matter how unfair you think it is. Cash is a pain to move around, and expensive to handle, banks and drug dealers know this first hand. Hence...

it's the financial instrument of choice for drug kings and criminals for moving money around without detection, that's basically the user case Value Prop of cryptos, hence why authorities are looking for ways to shut it down without taking the poor souls that got scammed in the process to lose...

you obviously are not familiar with how the banking system works :) even $1m transfer will raise all kind of alarm bells for compliance, and compliance for offshore and LPs are even more under scrutiny, you will be asked for a ton of paperwork that you probably don't even have :) hence you...
