Could this be a mechanism to launder money?
Edit: I'm not saying it is, but, just as an example, someone could buy BTC from an unregulated country, then purchase a Tesla and request a refund in dollars.
- Pelic4n 6y agoshhhh
- robjan 6y agoI am not 100% familiar with US regulations but I imagine there will be some KYC process before buying the Tesla in Bitcoins.
- jfengel 6y agoI know that banks are subject to some kind of restrictions on $10k+ transactions. Does that apply to sellers who sell directly to the public? If you try to buy a new car with a briefcase full of cash, do they have to do something?
- camjohnson26 6y agoThe customer doesn’t choose the method of refund, Tesla does.
- WinstonSmith84 6y agoTransactions are registered on the blockchain, and that's transparent, verifiable by anyone. Much more than through any bank, ironically. Regardless on how the car is paid, a car is delivered to a physical person, and Tesla asks for sure many information on that person... it's not like something purchased on the darknet delivered to an anonymous PO box :-)
