    It’s not a scam if you use it to buy stuff though

      Are you really “buying” something with crypto in that case, or is it just a complicated money laundering scheme?

        You could look at it as a currency conversion, then buying a product with that new currency.

        I’m not fussed about the semantics tbh, as long as I get my drugs I’m happy.

          Yes, that’s how money laundering works. Whether it’s crypto, gold, or fine art, the end result is still the same. You get drugs, they get clean cash, everyone is happy.
