So what makes these lawmakers think that this terrorist who could afford to raise millions of dollars in funding Hamas and Israelis fight through crypto, if they had an alternative can't afford doing so with the use cash fiat (i.e dollar notes), which is the most common global currency in the purchase of the ammunition needed for this fight? Because this is one area government will always keep getting it wrong since they literally have no control over Bitcoin, and as such always sees Bitcoin as the main sponsor of internet crimes, which is not so. But however, I look forward to see the authenticity of this story, if is it true Hamas terrorist raised $130 million in cryptocurrency donations in support of the fight or not.
I have a better question. How come one of the best intelligence units in the world (Mossad) did not know that Hamas was preparing an offensive? They did not build all those rockets in a day.
They did not dig all those tunnels and bunkers under Gaza in a day. IMO Israel knew what was coming and used this "opportunity" to launch an offensive meant to take over Gaza once and for all, but that's just my opinion.
If they were getting military support from other countries, it really did not matter if they got some money too, be it in cash, fiat currencies, gold, or cryptocurrencies. It doesn't matter.
What matters is that they got mortars, rifles, ammunition, all that was smuggled from other countries like Syria under the nose of the Israeli intelligence. Stop blaming crypto and start looking at politicians and whole countries involved this attack.
