but if a guy robs me through my computer I'm helpless. I don't like the feeling.
He'd rob you if he ever found out you own cryptocurrencies. If he didn't, you wouldn't be his prey. So, it's a matter of privacy.
Semantics.
If he knew I had all the cryptocurrencies in the world and couldn't touch me, he wouldn't, and the knowledge would be useless to him.
I don't belong to that "group", so I can only go by what I read or hear.
That's why I said it's stereotypical. There's no evidence that Argentina has the greatest hackers in sum neither that the Argentines are used to make damage. Just stereotypes.
I'm Argentinian, currently living in Buenos Aires. I never said Argentinian hackers are the greatest, I said they're considered to be among the best.
About doing damage, trust me, they're nasty. I can't possibly give you a marginally accurate picture of what living in here means. Let's just say I'd rather be anywhere else.
No such thing as impossible. Tor obfuscates your identity, to the point even US 3-letter agencies have been unable to crack it.
So why did you want to add another “layer” of privacy protection (VPN) in front of it? You said it yourself; Tor obfuscates your identity to a high degree.
For what I read (again, remember I'm far from an expert), Tor obfuscates your entry point to the network, but the exit node can still be used to track you. Adding a VPN is said to close the circle.
