I just know where to buy the drugs i want here in town, and then i offer cold hard cash that can't be traced back to me, even if the dealer rats me out. Much safer and more secure than buying them online.

Yobs like this always come out the woodwork when Bitcoin hits an all time high, talking about how cryptocurrency isn't all bad, but once you push them it's the same tired old talking points. They don't want to help you financially. They just want you to hold their bag while they cash out.

Edit: if you are familiar with the Alt-Right Playbook series by Innuendo Studios, Crypto Bros use the exact same strategies he points out. That's why it shouldn't surprise anyone that crypto firms were the largest donors to Republican campaigns this election season. Just something to think about as people keep espousing how crypto is gonna change the world...
