Only if the winners are foolish enough to recycle an existing address to receive them, where standard practice is to create a new one. (Also if they're stupid enough to dump compromised wallets into the new address in sufficient amounts to demonstrate control over the tainted buttcoins.) But yeah, unless you're a Tim Draper or Goldman Sachs you're probably going to have some eager agent keeping an eye on the addresses you tell the gubermint to send the proceeds.

How do drugs dealers actually cash out bitcoins? I roughly know how tumblers work and that you get clean bitcoins out of them that can not be linked to criminal activity in court, but what do you do with them afterwards? I guess you can't use the legal exchanges to cash because they exchange data with authorities for tax purposes. I also don't see them using craigslist or something due to the sheer amount of money that has to be cashed out regularly.

How do you turn that into cash you can use to buy food and gas and new cocaine, without having to declare it is as mystery income to the tax office? I mean, I guess you can buy the cocaine in bitcoins, but then you still need to convert at least something like 2k per month into real money to pay for rent & co.

The whole point of laundering money is that you do pay taxes on it. It's not clean money until it's in the system as legit money, and that means paying taxes. One of the great things about bitcoin for money laundering is that you can declare it as an investment ("oh well I got into cryptocurrencies back when bitcoins were less than a dollar each") and pay 15-20% capital gains tax on what you cash out, easy peasy. Laundering cash the old fashioned way you lost a lot more on operating a front plus had to pay income tax rates as well.

I also don't see them using craigslist or something due to the sheer amount of money that has to be cashed out regularly. a. Sketchy exchanges. The problem is they know their customers are mostly some sort of criminal so they can rob their customers whenever they want by pretending they care about AML/KYC. b. ATMs. There are bitcoin ATMs spread across every city. My city has ATMs from at least 10 different operators each of which has different daily/monthly buy/sell limits and they don't talk to each other, although they do talk to the IRS. c. Direct sales. Craigslist, local bitcoins, etc.

Libertarians and techbro types have the same fallacy with economics that liberal centrists have with politics in general; believing that established norms, decorum and 'common wisdom' are physical laws, and being unable to comprehend when they are openly and routinely broken.

If you are selling a security you have to register with the SEC, provide a bunch of public info, and most importantly have your books checked by independent auditors. If you don't do that you're selling an unregistered security and there are instant penalties if you sell them to normal people. Financial fraud they have to spend all sorts of time proving you violated the law. Selling unregistered securities they have the power to block you and issue fines unilaterally.

I just invested in CDCoin. It's my own virtual currency. I got in on the ground floor and one coin was randomly handed out for free and I gave it to myself. The thing with CDCoin is the there will only ever be one of them, it's the ultimate deflationary currency. Right now I've valued it at five million dollars per coin but it goes up Up UP all the time!
