you need to look at it in terms of US Law. Bitcointalk and theymos is subject to US Law.

Jambler aids and abets a mixer = fact

if bitcointalk aids and abets Jambler they could be charged with US federal law violations.

Best case I can explain it with is this article

https://www.hrw.org/report/2013/12/05/offer-you-cant-refuse/how-us-federal-prosecutors-force-drug-defendants-plead

it is about federal crimes mostly drugs ,but read the techniques the government used against people.

Theymos does not want any part of this.

I can't say that I blame him in the least.

@logfiles (good name) yep we are living in 1984 pretty much.

What I like is :
all audio
all images
all video
can be Ai'd should be considered Ai'd and not 'real'

A great way to live is it not.

Matrix coming up soon.

The forum is a breeding ground for fake yuaunty meme coins and everything that steals money from people. You should know this, but the jambler thread was created in 2019 and their business is successful and there seem to be no complaints.

the law in question for the usa went into effect Jan 1st this year.

it is federal law and is a felony to receive 10000 usd worth of any crypto without reporting full kyc to the feds.

So any usa person using a mixer and receiving $10,000 usd worth of coin would need full disclosure from the sender of the coin.

It is very likely why bitcointalk is not advertising mixers.

I ended my mining in clifton due to the new laws. we earned 19000 four way spilt in Dec 2023.

under new 2024 laws I would have been subject to much stricter reporting laws. thus the mining ending.

I certainly would think not every mixer will give its kyc to the receiver of the mixed coins thus Theymos decided it is in the best interest of bitcointalk to not promote mixers.

to further explain the problem. oh 10000 rule for one tranaction. I will do 2500+2500+2500+2500

that would quadruple the law breaker as they will say you did four moves in 4 days to avoid the 10,000 rule
