If you search back through the posts responding to Matt’s Mania about Bitcoin you’ll find posters referring to its allure for criminals. In starting to ban cryptocurrencies the Chinese government is making the same point:
“State broadcaster CCTV has said cryptocurrency is a lightly regulated asset often used in black market trade, money laundering, arms smuggling, gambling and drug dealing”.

So much for cryptocurrency’s claim to anonymity away from the maws of nasty national governments. The US government has recovered a ransom paid in Bitcoin - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-57394041
heh, seen that earlier and got a chuckle out of it.
FBI now steals bitcoin from hackers, lol.

Trying to converse with a blind guy using images isn't going to get you too far.
