Privacy coins are legal. Mixing/laundering services are not.
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I see a lot of people complaining about the hammer coming down on mixing services. By using a mixing service, you're asking for trouble.</p> <p>It's a money laundering service, and a good deal of the coins mixed are from ill-gotten gains. You're using a service that takes your (probably legal) coins, and trades them for coins with a dirty history. You're gaining some privacy by helping someone else launder their money- or you're laundering your own money directly.</p> <p>Either way, you're incredibly likely to end up with some tainted coins.</p> <p>Privacy coins are not illegal, and won't make you complicit when it comes to helping others launder their money. Stop using mixing services, and support privacy coins instead.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> Kind Regards R
