    Last I knew monero and other ecurrencies are used heavily by cyber threat groups (APTs). Sometimes you can trace out their whole operations network from the data.

    Look around for more info - I’d recommend looking up info on crypto osint

      Most of APTs are not really skilled about opsec usage. Last biggest actor were Lazarus and they did the mistake to not use bisq. LockBit for example is still using Bitcoin
