I see what you are saying and I know that companies like Chainalysis can go far beyond what many people think. But if you get your money into Monero and you send it a few steps ahead, maybe just divide it into a couple smaller transactions onto various Monero addresses, how are you going to identify the scammer? Isn't then the only way to crack Monero itself? I see why Bitcoin is relatively easy to trace even when mixers are used, but for as long as you are careful with hiding your IP and you are not unlucky using an infected TOR node, there is no way to really find you before any exit. Am I wrong?
If you have bitcoin on 10 addresses and you go with 6 of them into Monero with own Bitcoin and own Monero node via a decentral exchange and obfuscated IP and if you later on avoid co-spending any monero-ed address with one of the other 4 (including their children, grand children etc) then it's really difficult to trace you. But the weak point is that humans get lazy over time and the chance isn't low that you co-spend the wrong coins and then the obfuscations were a waste of time ....
