These tools are useful and sometimes it costs money. So having free information was not bad if this was only about information instead of encouraging to report addresses and help those companies to build their database. I wonder how much they are getting paid from these AML Risk Scorers and AML Analysis agencies.
I agree. These services are pretty useful.
I have a few addresses which I want to see the AML score. I am trying to sell/mix the lowest scores first, as things may become worse in the future.
I agree that all those things are an attack to bitcoin... But I need to be safe with my money.
Even using BISQ is risky. Because when we use BISQ we expose our identity to the buyers, and if they have problems with the AML of those addresses they can just come after me. So I don't use low AML coins (like the ones from eXch) in services like bisq.
