Witty.  The “NF” in “NFT” stands for Non-Fungible, so you clearly are not so thoughtless about this as some people.

Regardless, everyone needs to be informed that the absurd notion of so-called “taint” is an existential threat to Bitcoin.

It literally means that 1 BTC ≠ 1 BTC.

Best_Change, I am not inclined to open a debate about this in your thread.  I’m not here to start an argument with you.  I hereby express no opinion either way about your service in itself, which I have not evaluated.

I speak out because the “coin taint” delusion is a cancer which continues to grow, as long as people give no pushback.  People need to boycott services that peddle the “coin taint” lie; such services are untrustworthy and destructive to Bitcoin.  People need to speak out, as I am doing here.  “Coin taint” is only taking hold because its perpetrators are skilled propagandists, who make an obscene pretense of having some sort of moral high ground.  The “tainting” of coins is wrong—it is outrageous—someone needs to call out the Emperor‘s New Clothes here.

Please understand that AML does not threaten the integrity of the bitcoin ecosystem as such, but it only limits the work with gateways between the traditional financial system and the crypto world. Whether you like it or not, but if you want to exchange bitcoin to dollars, you need to kindly follow the rules for handling dollars, and they mean a tough policy of AML legislation in many countries of the world. With that, if you are making deals within a crypto community, then nobody and never will be able to censor your operations, this is the essence of decentralization.

But you want to shift the principles of decentralization to centralized services, such as exchanges, exchangers and simple shops operating in KYC-enabled jurisdictions. Such a position is quite popular and understandable but fundamentally wrong.

Instead of a conclusion: you can use bitcoin within the community and not try exchanging it to fiat currency, then you won’t have to complain about “AML-discrimination”.
