has it never ocurred to them that the best idea would be spending like 1/10 of the designated funds
and simply create a couple of mixers for coins and advertise them thouroughly
this way you will have your hands on many coins that are stolen,tainted etc.
*gifts the idea for free to all the cybercrime agencies out there
Maybe they are doing this already. You can´t really know,
who is actually running the popular mixers. It is entirely possible
that they already know way more about cryptocurrency transaction
tracking than they admit.
This reminds me of the TOR exit nodes where it is also widely suspected
that government agencies control a non-negligible percentage of all nodes.
