Leaked Chainalysis Monero Tracing

There's a video that's being so weakly censored that it might be on purpose, of an internal meeting of Chainalysis presenting to law enforcement of how they trace Monero.

I'm NOT going to link to the video because it's got some IP addresses of the malicious nodes that Chainalysis runs, which will bring unwanted pressure on our clearweb Linux tech support website. The goal of our organization is NOT to get you to run a darknet market, it's to get fundamental privacy rights with technology.

But I must say this, the way Chainalysis was effective in catching darknet market guys, was when they swapped Monero to Bitcoin. And so the people who push for Bitcoin only, are really pushing for a world where you need a ph.D in computer science to be private.

Now you're saying "oh but I'm not running a darknet market, so why do I need that level of privacy?" But if Bitcoin goes to the moon like you say it will, there will be tax implications of this. Everytime you buy a coffee, there's capital gains tax up or down. This will crush the use of it in the real world as money, unless it's private enough that it can't be enforced.

If Bitcoin becomes as popular as you say it will, there will be a violent response from the state to crush it. And so I'm telling you if you don't care about privacy for people with low technical skills, then Bitcoin is really just an ETF.
