More specifically, a scheme to enable transferring funds in/out of foreign countries to securely bribe informants and supply agents with money.
It's the logical companion to Tor, which was created by the U.S. government to facilitate secure information transfer in/out of foreign countries. But when they created Bitcoin, they decided to make it anonymous after the mistake of doing Tor in the open.
Maybe...
- azinman2 4y agoBitcoin isn’t anonymous. The transfers of coins are there permanently for all to see.
- Phlarp 4y agoSatoshi is (so far)
- woodruffw 4y agoSatoshi got away, which is a very different phenomenon from Bitcoin as a protocol being anonymous.
- staunch 4y agoYes, the ledger is public, but good luck identifying which transfers are bribes paid to informants within your government. This is same problem any foreign government would have.
