"This is the story of the revelation in late 2013 that Bitcoin was, in fact, the opposite of untraceable—that its blockchain would actually allow researchers, tech companies, and law enforcement to trace and identify users with even more transparency than the existing financial system."

Are you actually asking someone to prove that large darknet market drug dealers use money laundering to safely access their profits?

It sounds like what you really want is someone to explain to you how it's done successfully...if you're that desperate to learn, take it to Dread and off Lemmy.

I'm asking for a source for their information.

[–] pandapoo@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I just gave you a primary source for that...and a lot more...

Are you going to link to a specific post, or just the whole forum and pretend that satisfies the criteria of 'source'?

Hey guys! I found a source for everything! It's called Google. Just cite it at the end of all your papers.

Why is it so difficult for you people to admit you make stuff up without a source? Lol.

You're something special.

Okay kid, if this was all about you wanting to feel like you won an argument because people are declining to act as your personal Spotify Crime Explained playlist generator, then you win.
