*sigh* You can't blame the users, I guess. I did the same thing in ignorance, before the govt could even spell BTC.

I blame:

* Samourai for arrogantly marketing their flawed ideas as "privacy tools"

* "Privacy" Influencers who ran cover and talked about Samourai as if they were a legitimate option.

* Fucking VCs drawing outsized funding towards the biggest assholes in bitcoin.

* The government, ofc, but they were gonna do what they were gonna do anyways.
