Another guy had his money stolen. This happens every day, but not all cases get as much attention as this one.
>>> this poses a high risk on anyone that wants to use OTC
How?
>>> he will ask the LE to help him recover the funds which most likely will result in adding the Tron address to all AML programs we all know
It doesn't matter. If the entire chain of people acted quickly and converted USDT into something that cannot be blocked at the smart contract level, these guys won.
>>> defeating the purprose of using this technology in the Agora spirit because of a few bad apples that are scum and lowlife stealing this man's and his wife life savings.
Why? How?
Can the same be said about the inventor of the axe? If not = why not? Do you understand how absurd this can be? In other words, because someone was drunk driving today and killed a person, we need to ban all cars in the world.
>>> lo and behold the poor Agorist will fall a second vicitm to the those lowlife scum inhuman thieves
Improve your technical skills + profiling skills so that you are not scammed.
Before attempting to protect and save the entire world, first take care of yourself and your family so that you and they are not deceived. You will not be able to protect and save the world anyway.
Don't deceive the free (as in freedom) market and people. Befriend them and create agorist p2p connections to deceive and circumvent the state together.

LE will tag these coins if not forzen by Tether and they will keep monitoring it, Chainanalyst exist for this reason mostly. then you as a peaceful Agorist could get these coins and get in trouble because LE sadly are much powerful than you as an individual, yes if you convert it fast to something untracable like XMR you won, but remember that these stolen coins gets circulated in that smart contract on-chain. leading to more innocent people falling a vicitm to be labeled a "criminal" that's what LE are good at accusing innocent people and suspecting them all the time., Unfortunately, we don’t live in an ideal world, it is full of villains and scums, I am not endorsing LE involvment in everything. but this case just gives you an alarm to be careful in dealing with OTC transfers without proper OPSEC and careful review of the other party you are trading with. I know I may sound an anti-agorist by all this, I am not and still learning about the Agora from wonderful people like you and others in the space.. moving on to answer your other good points..

I agree with this... it does not make sense and I might sound stupid in my argument, this is not how the world work. because of someone doing bad we stop using a good technology in a good faithful way. the main issue with USDT or any on-chain smart contracts like USDC and others is that they are not really fungible pretty much like BTC and all other visible chains, which means if you use physical cash to do the trade you are much more safer than doing it USDT way but that comes with it is fees by doing your way you are saving on % as i understand which is good but at the same time very risky

I fully 100% agree with you on this.. I am studying all safe methods myself but trying to understand the human nature better because at the end of it all the human aspect is a big part in this equation. creating a safe community like xmrbazaar is wonderful to see... engaging in and report inhumans to other good humans to not fall a victim and so on. I once been scammed when I was young and that made me thinking why humans do this ? I understood that the world is harsh and hard to live in, but as you stolen that hard earned money by scamming. couldn't you think that this poor person worked hard to earn it faithfully ? and that you as a subhuman scammer you give the LE more reasons to make everyone's day to day life even harder ??? just questioning this led me into philosophy, psychology and into Agora at the end

that's what I am trying to do.. just a simple human living in peace with others, read this forum reply about email: https://xmrbazaar.com/forum/topic/29/reply/115/ and how inhumans scums and as nostr:npub1ajlljavyzaj44k96zg7euzxkp4m8q3w6yfrjah5xel4gax3v697qc5d9u3 call them PoS💩 are one of the many reasons LE feeds on to get their authority over you.
and sorry if I couldn't deliver what i wanted to say in a good way as my english language is not that good
Much respect to you all ❤
