Yowzers! New analysis indicates on-chain balances linked to criminal activity currently exceeds $75B. Bitcoin holds ~ 75% of total illicit entity balances and not surprising stablecoins and ether have grown substantially.

This situation presents law enforcement with an unprecedented opportunity: billions of dollars in illicit proceeds are sitting on public blockchains, and theoretically can be seized if authorities can coordinate action! https://www.chainalysis.com/blog/landscape-of-seizable-crypto-assets-2025/ #Crypto #CryptoCurrencies #IllicitActivity #CryptoAssets #CriminalActivities #BlockChain #DigitalAssets #CryptoCrime #MoneyLaundering #BTC #ETH #ShadowEconomy #StableCoins

Translation: a lot of new job openings soon for all those gringos whining "made in America" and "hire American." Oh, you say those people would not be caught dead doing those jobs? Gee, can't imagine why.

America's shadow economy shrinks due to deportation fears

Pockets of the U.S. economy depend on unauthorized labor to stay afloat — and that workforce goes beyond undocumented immigrants.

My family and I have been trying to get a visa appointement for them to visit me in #Italy for months, with no success. We just learnt that private agencies are selling the appointement for 850TND (12 times its price)!! Enough humiliation and abuses!
