Isn't this an opportunity for intelligence agencies and "OSINT" enthusiasts to track down all the funding that Hamas is bragging about?

this isn't a "problem" but an opportunity for the crypto lobbyists to show how useful their product can be to the State, not just the individuals who run it.

"As long as the use case is some weird combination of libertarian fantasies and drug dealers and terrorists, members of Congress are not going to be excited to give the industry the benefit of the doubt," he said."

They're just mad that USD no longer holds a monopoly on financing coups, rebellions, resistances, etc.
