Whenever regulators shoot their stupid mouths off about drugs, money laundering, assassinations, human trafficking, etc., I feel like they're flushing a tremendous opportunity down the toilet to build real credibility and support from the public by instead talking about consumer protection and prosecuting fraud.

The crimes take place in the physical world anyway, and that is where law enforcement has to be.
Standard law enforcement methods are not hampered by bitcoin.
If you order drugs there is a box at the postal office getting picked up.
If there is a hit , there is a person with a gun and a person with a motive.
If somebody buys plutonium there is a supplier, transport and lots of people involved.


And wait for it..............you can do ALL this with DOLLARS too !!!!!!! Or any fiat for that matter  Wink

Law enforcement will find a way to get the bad guys using BTC  Cool  Just hope good guys don't get caught up in the paranoia probes  Cheesy

Well, now that you've weighed in we can shut down this thread!

Care to tell me how one would track the spending of coinbase transactions?

to me all this fantasy talk about assasinations, money laundering, drugs, etc. are just wild ramblings of young btc'ers who let their minds run wild  and giddy over a new appreciating currency.  bottom line, u can be tracked if necessary.

Call the cops if you have reason to believe there is money laundering or assassination activity in your area.

You prevent both money laundering and assassinations by not having a totalitarian police state. Bitcoin is irrelevant.

Money laundering is the "thought crime of finance"

An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination.
-- Voltaire

When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.
-- Thomas Jefferson

Let's hope Bitcoin is a key enabler for ideal government and liberty.

I advocate the Zeitgeist Movement & Venus Project.
FTFY.

If you truly believe what you preach, you are the problem. You, who are so enlightened, expect others to fix it for you?

It reminds me of those citizens of the U.S.A. who claim they are against the welfare / warfare state, but continue to pay for it.

If you want to change the world, start by setting an example. Stop using money. Stop using bitcoins. Stop mining bitcoins.

Who comes to a forum about a new currency and then proceeds to blame money for the evils of the world? While mining that new currency none-the-less!

It disgusts me that you continue to bad mouth money in thread after thread, yet you use it freely when it suits your needs. Hypocrite.

This is not an attack on you, it's an attack on your actions. It's a bit difficult to take you seriously when your actions do not match your words.

Disengaging from society does not make it any better.
