If Trump's administration becomes so bitcoin friendly, will theymos consider lifting mixers ban in the forum?

I doubt if theymos will want to reconsider his ban on mixers here even if the incoming Trump administration goes into full romance with Bitcoin. The reason being that mixers are alleged to be helping hackers, terrorists and all manners of criminals get away by hiding traces of their illicit funds. Except there will be terms and conditions that will compel mixers to kyc whoever wants to make use of their services so that they can be fished out if things go awry or authorities demand such. Otherwise, I don't see how theymos will overlook such and expose this forum to the danger of lurking authorities who can seize this forum effortlessly like it was done to some here two years or so ago.

I also doubt theymos would allow mixers to return here looking at the past events and the scenarios where mixers were labeled as a medium for embezzlement, terrorism funding, laundering, etc this forum has come a long way that such should dent the name and reputation it has earned for itself all these while. Concerning KYC for mixer users, I think it would be good as anyone who uses the mixer platform to perpetrate any evil would be brought to book very fast for their crimes committed through using the mixer platform.

Although using a mixer is not bad but the intentions of the people using it are what the problem is and that has been the bone of contention between the government and the mixers to make sure those who use the platforms for evil are meant to face the wrath of the law and it would not be alright to also see that this platform would be in the government watch list because of the evil perpetrated by people who use the mixer platform for their wrongdoings.
