Part 8/13:

Addressing Illegal Activities and Transparency

In response to concerns about illicit use, Antonopoulos clarifies that while transactions are transparent and traceable, they are not inherently anonymous. Law enforcement can track the flow of funds, especially when identities are attached through traditional mechanisms. He dismisses the notion that Bitcoin is a primary tool for money laundering or terrorism financing, arguing that most illicit activity still relies heavily on cash and traditional fiat methods.
