    No, I’m just saying that I don’t trust the word of American government or their affiliates on this.

          Thank you for that piece of information. I almost forgot. Now read the damn article, it cites non-governmental sources.

            It cites analysis from Chainalysis, a contractor for US government.

              Is there a flaw in the evidence or analysis?

                You and I don’t know because we don’t have access to the evidence ourselves. It’s just “Company publishes report supporting the arguments of its large customer”.

                  A blog post that previews the report is here: https://blog.chainalysis.com/reports/2022-crypto-crime-report-preview-russia-ransomware-money-laundering/

                  At this point, I’m not doing any more of the leg work for you. There’s plenty of information out there on this. It’s widely discussed in the security community. Articles, reports, and the like are not hard to find at all.

                    The company here has a massive conflict of interest. The US government is a big customer of theirs. There is no reason to take anything they say seriously.
