Bitcoin mixing (Bitcoin mixing or Bitcoin tumbling) is a technique used to hide the identity of Bitcoin users. When using Bitcoin, transactions are publicly stored on the blockchain and can be tracked by anyone. The use of Bitcoin mixing helps to mask users' Bitcoin addresses and makes it harder to track transactions. However, the use of Bitcoin mixing can also be used to launder money and the funds are used to fund illegal activities. Therefore, the use of Bitcoin mixing completely depends on the intended use of the user. If used correctly, Bitcoin mixing is not money laundering.
And unfortunately our behavior is at the root of the problem, I find that people love to blame products when it is the user who is responsible for that behavior. What I find funny is that the law enforcement agencies keep pretending that they only see the wrongdoing of these products and blame it.
I pretty much agree with everything you've written except the last phrase: I hate how governments try to take down cryptos all the time, even making up facts or blame cryptos for every single problem there is in the world but if a mixer is mainly used to laundry bitcoins then I can understand they want to take it down. Of course if the illegal transactions are a minimum part than I have no problem with that, even cash and bank transfers are used by criminals but if a specific bank mainly deals with stolen funds then I understand why it must be shut down. Same goes with mixers, they closed Chip Mixer because of the huge amount of illegal activity behind it. The problem as usual are not the tools, are the people.
