We need a good class action lawyer to sue the government agencies for proper compensation.

Btw as I understand the new rule I can keep this signature the way it is. or do I deactivate the links in it.

I fully intend to comply with theymos rules. as i understand them them This goes on dec 31 and I am all good.

That's a different story, you can ask people to report criminal activities and give them money, there is even a big percentage of the embezzled money that goes to the whistle blowers. This case is different the money does not belong to the government, it belongs to people, besides we are not attracting criminals here, in fact no criminal logs in this forum, they just watch from distance, not to mention all of these operations of all on forum mixers, are just a distraction, the big fishes are operating elsewhere.

But do we know which one of the existing mixers are honeypots? I'm willing to bet half of them are honeypots and the rest are a front, a facade to keep the LE busy.

The largest money washing machines are big centralized exchanges, just like the big banks.

yep and to anyone with a good stack of coins that have a low capital cost privacy is import.

like I said before when I write a check to pay my mason he does not know what is left in my bank account.

mixers are one of the only ways to hide non taxable coins.

if a guy is holding 50 coins from a block he hit in 2011. He wants to cash a few in 2011 that block was worth under 500 bucks and he reported hitting the block in 2012 paid his tax.In the USA 🇺🇸 if he held it to now he owes no tax.

If he wants to cash some of it he should not need to reveal the rest as it is not taxable.

This is very interesting as we have seen many older untouched blocks from 2009 to 2010

I wonder if they have been held in case the government wants to do this.

The feds could get burned bigly over this. In the meantime bitcointalk can wait on the sidelines as the best way to end this issue is some of those old blocks get cashed mixed and there are lawsuits over it.
