The same way they do everywhere else.... Complex webs of money laundering, but that's not cheap, or easy.
Or nearly impossible, as evidenced by the litany of small-time vendors who have been operating for years.
On a side note, where are you getting this information from?
You said drug empires, not guy selling 8 balls and 10 packs on a darknet market.
I'm not going to provide sourcing for my throw away comment. Take it, or leave it, doesn't really matter to me.
Yeah, because those are the ones LE focuses on. So we can agree that players both big and small are able to cash out on cryptocurrency and your initial point is wrong.
Lol, okay. You can just admit you don't have one.
You got me, I'm just making this shit up. I have never even heard of any of the publicly available blockchain forensics databases, or reviewed any of the ample examples of reporting and analysis on the subject.
If this was some obtuse or obscure subject, I'd take the time to cite sources, but it's not, it's extremely well covered, so stop being a lazy twat and look for yourself.
That's not what I asked about and you know it.
I asked how you know about vendor money laundering techniques, which you failed to provide a source for.
If that's the case, then you should be able to easily provide a source instead of flailing around like you're doing now.
You made the claim. You provide the source or you admit you're making stuff up.
Are you actually asking someone to prove that large darknet market drug dealers use money laundering to safely access their profits?
It sounds like what you really want is someone to explain to you how it's done successfully...if you're that desperate to learn, take it to Dread and off Lemmy.
I'm asking for a source for their information.
I just gave you a primary source for that...and a lot more...
Dread
Are you going to link to a specific post, or just the whole forum and pretend that satisfies the criteria of 'source'?
Hey guys! I found a source for everything! It's called Google. Just cite it at the end of all your papers.
Why is it so difficult for you people to admit you make stuff up without a source? Lol.
You're something special.
Okay kid, if this was all about you wanting to feel like you won an argument because people are declining to act as your personal Spotify Crime Explained playlist generator, then you win.
