Hey theymos!
Sorry to reopen this thread, but wouldn't this provide a legal basis for accepting mixers on Bitcointalk again? Could you give us your point of view?
https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/01/fact-sheet-executive-order-to-establish-united-states-leadership-in-digital-financial-technology/The Executive Order revokes the previous Administration’s Digital Assets Executive Order and the Treasury Department’s Framework for International Engagement on Digital Assets which suppressed innovation and undermined U.S. economic liberty and global leadership in digital finance.
Wasn't this framework the exact reason you banned mixers from Bitcointalk?
Some more recent news:
