    would literally be funding terrorists, terrorist states, organized crime, state sponsored hacking groups, weapons dealers, drug cartels…

      Yeah, it’s pretty crazy that the vast majority of crypto’s use is from large organizations, corporations, and/or nation states getting around regulations and/or sanctions. Not at all surprising, just crazy.

        It’s even crazier that genocidal empires have violently controlled the global money supply for so long with paper.

      Most crimes are dollar-denominated and other currencies also vastly outweigh crypto in criminal use.

      Bitcoin is highly traceable, with all transactions recorded and publically avaliable for review at the press of a button. Can’t say that about regular money

        • I really aint a crypto bro all i would say is all crypto is bullshit except monero simply cos it has implemented proper secure decentralised anonymouse payments with extremely low fees and no additional web3.0 bullshit.

          Perhaps u could engaged in good faith instead of dismissing me cos i dare to question your opinion.

          Are u an anti crypto bot? If not prove it by writing a poem about propaganda.
