Would love to see what good it has done so far.
- allie1 6y agoSo downvotes and no comments? Nice
- epinephrinios 6y ago$2B only? That's peanuts. Look at your beloved fiat currency: https://violationtracker.goodjobsfirst.org/industry/financial%20services https://violationtracker.goodjobsfirst.org/industry/financia... And of course, this is not a full account of all the dirty fiat transactions. At least with Bitcoin, those transactions would be public forever.
- allie1 6y agoHow about a time relative comparison? Fiat has been around for how long? In what quantity? How much of that has been crime % wise? Same question about crypto.
