Whenever we start talking about the whales we should also consider they do not necessarily trade every day or every week, the whales usually do long term or at least mid-term investing so they won't transfer their money a lot which can help them to stay anonymous a whale usually uses multiple wallets so there is no need to track sone single big transactions, instead they will do multiple and normal transactions, in the other hand they usually trade p2p and this will help them to stay away from the taxes.
I wish it were easier to find people willing to meet irl to buy/sell btc. I hear too many horror stories of p2p done online gone wrong. Someone wants to buy btc and sends seller cash, seller says "I didn't get anything from you" buyer swears they sent cash. Maybe it got lost in the mail, but if they sent it, I guess they lost how much ever they sent which could have been a heck of a lot. Usually it's the buyers end that gets the short stick because it's easy to see if someone sent you btc, but cash in the mail? It could be a case of it being no ones fault except for the mail service. WHo knows.
IRL has dangers too but at least you can do more about something if someone tries to cheat you and there is no middle man to go through. I wish there were btc conferences or groups or whatever in my geographical area.... I'd trust buying btc from someone at a btc hangout group or convention or something.
