and if someone pays me from a coinvalidated known blackmarket, directly to my exchange wallet ( i often have payment go directly to my ewallet )
what will happen to me? what will happen to my funds?
remember coinvalidation is just a business advisory service with a database. Compliant exchanges are just businesses that have to monitor for serious crime transactions (large FIAT transactions that are linked to serious crimes)
they themselves cannot "freeze" funds. only a bank or a court order can.infact if you were being investigated you would not know about it. this is the whole "it will take 3-5 business days" bit. giving the exchange a few hours or days to check you out before sending the funds onto the bank and your bank having a few hours or days for their own compliance checks. within the 3-5 day window.
some businesses to avoid risk of being penalised, headaches of looking at certain transactions, and avoid headaches of paperwork have the right to refuse service to any customer they please as long as it has been done before the transaction is processed.. although this would be bad for business. its the same as alcohol laws.. the law is simple dont sell to underage. but the shop can reduce its own risks by making a policy to refuse service to anyone that looks young that fails to provide ID. EG 'challege 21', 'challenge 25'
its worth reading the regulations of your country instead of asking other peoples opinions, they are not that hard to find. as although most developed countries are the same, there are some small variances in a few details. but the general rule of this scenario affecting the USA is:
US customers transacting over $10k need AMLKYC info,
US customers that have revealed information that their funds are 100% crime related will have their info passed onto fincen. and may find out later that their bank has frozen their funds..
thers more but go read it for yourselves.
the exchange cannot freeze funds. but they can without explaining why, refuse the customer and ban them (again this is bad for business, but they can do it, if given sufficient information before hand to prevent the transaction occuring.)
so i cant tell you what policy alpaca socks or bitstamp may create if they used coinvalidation as advisors. as half of it is the businesses own risk prevention, which goes above the law.
the main question to ask is why woud you want to highlight yourself as a high risk by doing large payments knowingly from illegally obtained funds.
if lets say you done a $10k FIAT withdrawal and maybe $20-$100 was from others who were stupid enough to send directly from silk road to you, then :
1) slap them across the face with a wet fish for being foolish and not mixing before risking YOUR funds
2) dont worry too much, as small amounts VS YOUR larger clean funds will dilute risk.
but lets say all of the $10k came directly from silk road... slap yourself across the face with a wet fish...
