I disagree. It might only be for the safety of the forum's staff and the forum. We do not want a government agency to take our forum down also hehehe. @theymos made a good decision.
I read a lot of US and European legal information. The presence of Chipmixer ads (not to mention the presence of many other mixers here) on this forum already allows law enforcement agencies to put forward ads against the forum administration. The charges can be different, and very significant. Therefore, I think that in the next few years the rules on the forum will change or the forum will change jurisdiction or @theymos will give control to other people. A criminal charge against such a forum will cause a lot of noise and discontent in the news, because this is a forum, not an exchange message board or a crypto exchange. But nevertheless, the possibility is always present. And when the regulator punishes all the big whales, it can start to deal with smaller fish.
