As I said acknowledging you have customers that use your product for criminal use-cases is not a crime. Using/operating a market over Tor is not a crime, although those markets are commonly used to buy illicit substances. Those are true free markets. There is nothing illegal happening on page 9. Obviously the DOJ thinks they can get a conspiracy conviction. But only because enough people read into it the same way you are.

I’m reading it like it’s the law. I’m not reading it like it shouldn’t be this way but it is. I’m reading it like this is the law. They knew it was the law. I’m not a judge. I guess we’ll find out how they interpret it but if this was just code, that’s one thing but that’s not what this is. You are marketing a service to la money you seriously don’t see that?
Not to mention, they charged extra for gray and dark transactions I mean come on now you’re just being ridiculous if you think this is not illegal , then you should go for it
According to who is it not a crime? If you have no KYC and you are laundering money for people and your advertising it and you’re putting it in your deck it’s against the law to promote money laundering services
Again, you are pearl clutching over a jpg or two of what the DOJ (rather dogily) calls "marketing materials" obviously you are happy to take their word for it and buy their line that these jpgs and their mention of "illicit" and "restricted" markets constitute "marketing their service to launder money" without any further context. Sad.
