Is it, though? I'm not saying I buy a lot of street drugs, but I know some people who know some people who do, and have literally never seen or heard mention of Bitcoin for this.
You know what I have seen being used, that surprised the hell out of me at first? Venmo.
Turns out people buy their friends a lot of sushi.
- twic 7y agoInteresting. I know of one person who mail-orders interesting things, and uses bitcoin for that.
- Frondo 7y agoI've heard that anecdotally too, and tbh I would never ingest something a stranger sent me in the mail. I'm sure it's mostly fine, but there's a level of trust that whisper networks provide that is simply absent in an online setting. Heck, bitcoin itself purports to do exchanges in a trustless setting; trustless is the last environment you want to have for things you're putting in your body.
- faissaloo 7y agoActually darknet drug sites do have a review system, it's not like people just order randomly.
- qes 7y agoI've been buying drugs on the street and online for many years and online crushes IRL, just like it does for legal commerce. Online reviews have helped me always get top notch quality and exactly the product I expect. The street can't come close.
