Its not money laundering, lol.
a) Bitfinex is an exchange, they don't need to launder. They are the laundry!
b) You usually want to get the money back when your launder. This is handing 20 million dollars to a random on the street who takes your transactions.
- tsimionescu 5y agoI get that point, but I was asking for what is then the real reason. The only two I've seen proposed are money laundering (perhaps by collusion with the miner) or mistake (accidentally confusing the transaction amount with the tip - still meaning the intention was to pay $100k in transaction fees).
