Now there's a pithy title that vastly understates the case. There was an article on here earlier about how the Secret Service take on crypto that pretty much utterly destroys all of the crypto hype mill talking points about decentralization, anonimity, etc. I'm glad that I've lived long enough to see that particular arc of bullshit run it's course.

Rewind the clock about 12 years and there were folks involved in the development of blockchain tech that routinely hopped on every broadcast channel available to man to declare this tech would not only usher in an era of perfect anonymity to financial transactions, it would be so perfectly anonymous as to threaten fiat currency as a concept as it would hamper governments' ability to collect taxes.
