Money laundering is not theft. It's erasing the trail of where the money came from. Hiding the origins of the money. All crypto exchanges have this going on without their knowing. The real problem the 3 letters have with this is they can't see how, what, where or why, and they want to force you to pay taxes for services you don't want and didn't ask for.
I get that the three letter agencies want to see all transactions for the purpose of control, but the idea that there are no victims is absurd. Just ask 600,000 Ukrainians.
