This is a great and important use case. Fuck sanctions
As yes, fuck everyone (like me) that isn’t allowed to get medicine from above board channels (this 1000 times more common than silly things like paying for hitmen or organs. If you are buying hitmen or organs on the Internet 99% of the time it is fake)
Most pills sold on the dark web are not genuine pharmaceuticals. Law enforcement has caught countless vendors making their own tablets with pill presses, stamping them with real drug logos, and selling them as Xanax, oxycodone, or Adderall. Some are made with raw ingredients shipped from overseas; others are mixed in makeshift labs with no quality control.
The danger is what’s inside: pills advertised as painkillers often contain fentanyl, and fake Adderall tablets have been found packed with meth. Even if a pill looks real, its contents may be wrong, too strong, or contaminated. A single counterfeit dose can be deadly.
This appears to be a sweeping statement that would be very hard to confirm or deny.
The burden of proof is on who makes the initial claim, in this case, the seller. In traditional markets the state forces pharma companies to prove their claims, but in the dark web it’s the wild west. Great way to scam people.
paying for criminal activities, like hitmen, organs, drugs
Paying for criminal activities does not necessarily only include spy movie shenanigans. Lots os banned pharmaceuticals are sold through crypto, including abortion pills and HRT hormones. I doubt we’re ever going to agree on sanctions, but hopefully we can still find a middle ground on people getting access to necessary pharmaceuticals in countries that ban them, even if it is a crime.
Though to be fair most of that is done on more stable and cheaper currencies like Montero.
Cryptocurrencies have various use cases:
In most cases, they do more harm than good.

Yeah this is what you have to deal with when governments prioritise profits over the people’s health. It’s just a matter of risk management.

Replace crypto with cash and all those things are true, and yet…
The point of crypto is to remove control of currency, so does it do that or not?
