This is a psyop. First, BTC is not a secure currency, although laundering via gambling sites is just as easy as Paddock's use of casinos. Actual state actor level surveillance is not prevented from tracking funds by such mechanisms, although most h4x0rs are.

Taking on entities competent to get away with 9/11 for $300 in BTC?

I submit this is not credible.

There is another reason this is happening.

Thanks!
