Is a understatement. How about "Almost perfectly transparent?" I mean almost all exchanges that let you buy BTC with FIAT require your Name and Address or even your gov ID and then there are this companies who specialize in tracking BTC.  They KNOW what exchanges generate what Addresses for some reason or the other. I once read a article where they showed the flows of thousands or millions of addresses from exchanges like localbitcoins, coinbase, you name it. It totally blew my mind. But in fact is should not, just because I do not know exactly how they do it. I think they have some ways without it to track so some extend but ALSO they may already have "deals" or forced secret deals with the exchanges are not allowed to talk about that mandate exchanges to give the NSA every BTC address to a person without any court at all. Some FISA rubber stamped bullshit. They in the past just went after the big fishes but its changing you watch.

Or THIS: https://www.thedailybeast.com/irs-now-has-a-tool-to-unmask-bitcoin-tax-cheats look at the date of that article.  OK they said 8002 in 2015 I said 2016 or 2017 b4 excuse me. Probably exploded by now. You guys for sure are all fine with funding your countries wars to kill mostly innocent people somewhere or at least participate in it by supplying the weapons and logistics and overspending on other BS and make that Political and Financial Elite classes even richer. You for sure all want that to happen. Crypto should have the #1 priority to keep governments out. To help good organizations like Wikileaks to get their funds without them even knowing about how much they get and from who. And they do take Monero yey https://shop.wikileaks.org/donate that is what people should use. I feel like a Monero shill right now, would it make it just funny or hypocritical if I would tell you I never owned any of it
