I can confirm I've seen evidence rhat Chainalysis gets a lot of info from exchanges, but I don't have permission to share it. :/ Also, if Chainalysis doesn't understand how Monero works... WTF. That's far too incompetent to be gathering evidence that could jail people.

Yes it is, chainanalysis doesn't even offer a monero suite. They bugger us from time to time and don't even understand the basics of how it works. There only edge was that they started on kraken and other snitch exchanges and have a fuckton of customers data access.

If you want to get that proof, simply use API access to Chainanalysis along with some test transactions. Be good if

@krakenfx

could go on record to deny this; if they're sharing your personal info with third party spies like Chainanalysis that's pretty shitty.

Hey

- what do you say?

We only share KYC data with banking partners. Outside of that, we don’t share any personal information without a subpoena. We might use 3rd parties to improve/verify our data, do our own investigations but we are not a data provider to anyone.

To be clear, Chainanalysis isn't a banking partner? ...and how do you prevent those banking partners from sharing with Chainanalysis?

Thank you

for getting back to me. I will take you at your word and hope people realize what is at stake. There is going to be an Exodus of U.S. money from Bitmex. If the UI and overall UX can improve, you will see increased volume if

is on the traders side
