God, remember when links to pictures of monkeys were selling for millions and rubes ate it up?
It was not 'pictures of monkeys' it was art. It was digital art. If you don't get that then you don't understand money laundering.
You can’t money launder with bitcoin. The whole purpose is that everything is traceable.
That is how you launder money with art and Bitcoin.
Because it's normally suspicious if someone gives $1mil for no reason, but if you know it's for a monkey jpeg, then it's normal.
I have no idea if it attracted the attention of any regulatory body but yeah that's pretty much how it went down as far as I know
That’s not how it goes. Laundering works because you don’t have to report the sale, you just have to report the income. If you can track the sale then laundering never will work.
