Imagine people calling you a criminal for not keeping your money in the bank, instead you choose to keep it in Bitcoin, the next question they will throw at your face is what do you have to hide?
This is part of my own very story, it is easier for people to think that you have something you are hiding when you choose a different part, but I am very glad that Bitcoin transactions are very transparent.
This is why I don't talk ill about those who use mixers, not all of them are criminals and they have their tangible reasons for choosing to hide their transactions, I choose to get away from my government, I don't want the bank to know my real worth, I don't want them to monitor my life and finance, this was why I choose Bitcoin, but in the eye of the government, why wouldn't they believe that I have something to hide?
I believe there are criminals everywhere, not just in the crypto space. Even banks in all their assumed exposure are still been hacked and use funds Catered away sometimes without trace for a long period of time.
These are just deliberate attacks on bitcoin because it promises freedom from government interference. I love living a private life and if using mixers and other services gives me that satisfaction, then why wouldn't I use it?.
Criminals are everywhere and I believe if any parastatal wants to track fraudulent activities, they can track it, even down to mixers as the case may be and not generalizing about the whole thing being fraud. Bitcoin supports privacy and people should embrace it. That's freedom which the government doesn't want you to have and are afraid to let you have it.
Indeed, criminals lurk in every corner. Cyber heists, which target banks and show how common theft is, happen all the time. This is not only about Bitcoin; it's also about power in general. Governments are afraid of Bitcoin's promise of freedom, so they often portray it as a place where bad things happen. Why? Because it threatens their power.
Its your right to use mixers for privacy. It gives you power over your own data, which is something that the traditional financial system often takes away. Bitcoin is more than just money; its a sign of defiance against overreach. The government has good reason to be afraid of Bitcoin. It gives people power and freedom that worries old power structures.
We do need to remember, though, that great power comes great duty. Bitcoin isnt a way to hide illegal actions; its a way to free up your money. Some people who abuse it shouldnt take away from its promise.
