Crypto AML Risk Percentages Guide. Obtain or cash out crypto ATM or DEX? ⚠️ Suspicious. Gambling? ⛔ High risk. ✅ Low risk sources? : Laundromat | Torhoo darknet markets

I'm reposting it because my cross-post didn't make it on https://torhoo.cc/go.php?u=TDJRdlRHRjFibVJ5YjIxaGRBPT0=# whom was ideal subforum for topic at hand. Original topic: https://torhoo.cc/go.php?u=TDNCdmMzUXZabUV5WW1GaFlUZ3pORFJrTVRVMlkyTmpZelE9#

Credits: I can't find the original author name was like in the lines of kazakobmennik. Most of the information seems to be taken from the amlbot page too credits go to them as well.

I couldn't find any meaningful discussions about understanding how different cryptocurrencies are treated from AML perspective.

Interesting anaylsis. The EU is implementing DAC8 and CARF is coming into force as well... essentially we will see crypto exchanges implement information sharing similar to banks - the well known FATCA and CRS comes to mind.

How do you make sure that your coins exchanged on an atomic swap aren't tainted? I assume that a bit of legitimacy is needed on the exchanger side.

Actually not analysis more everything written on the topic are very well known things in the industry.

You can't guarantee non tainted coins and with atomic swaps you've got high chance to get tainted coins as such mostly caters to people who want to launder dirty coins. Same with DEX or other P2P trading. The person holding the bag is mostly the one who exchanges it at CEX. However some vendors make a living off proving you got tainted coins by accident and essentially making you get away with it (works with smaller numbers to prove innocence).

Exchanging Monero to other coins is a bit more of a special case as if done on regulated big or small exchange almost guaranteed you'll get clean coins as they do KYT with AMLbot on all incoming and their liquidity comes from biggest exchanges or mining pools (both low AML percentages).

A few questions here :

8) Mixer
Coins that passed through a mixer to make tracking difficult or impossible. Mixers are mainly used for money laundering.

9) Ransom
Coins obtained through extortion or blackmail.

11) Scam
Coins that were obtained by deception.

12) Stolen Coins
Coins obtained by hijacking someone else's cryptocurrency.

For ransom, scam and stolen coins, I assume the coins will be high risk ONLY if someone files a complaint about coins having been stolen etc, right ?

About mixer : if you have coins through a mixer and then sent to a cold wallet, and from that cold wallet to a DEX, does this make coins less AML sensitive ?

How about passing the coins through Trocador into Monero in a feather wallet, and then swap back ? Would that be the safe way ?

Thank you for your input!

Only if complaint is filed yes.

A question of the software tracking them but in essence since other parties are receiving the coins, you should inherit the DEX risk level of the coins.

Trocador will stop your coins if they flag too high with AML risk. Read their terms and conditions carefully and reviews.
