LEA prooves that Monero is more used than BTC

https://www.europol.europa.eu/newsroom/news/darkmarket-worlds-largest-illegal-dark-web-marketplace-taken-down

DarkMarket in figures:
almost 500 000 users;
more than 2 400 sellers;
over 320 000 transactions;
more than 4 650 bitcoin and 12 800 monero transferred.

I read the same stats.
I do wonder about 500,000 users, if there were only 320,000 tx.
If correct, which I doubt - that means a maximum possible of less than two thirds of 'users' actually made a transaction. And that is based on an assumption of just ONE transaction per user.
I would assume there was a varying amount of transactions per user, meaning even less of the so-called 'users' actually USED the place.
Nonsense figures, if you ask me...

Maybe just in BTC or for a certain article, who knows but the interesting thing is, that there have been seized 3 times more Monero then BTC --> if that is true Roll Eyes
