I was watching a crime series: they arrest a guy buying sensitive information.
The cops ask him, “How would you have paid the hacker? Bank transfer? App?”
He answers, “No.”
And I immediately thought, “Here we go, now they’ll start the usual speech about cryptocurrencies used by criminals.”
But no!
The answer was: “No, he just wanted cash. Electronic payments are traceable.”
Interesting, right?
