A special agent with the US Secret Service (USSS) is speaking out against bitcoin and digital currency technology on the grounds that criminal activity is its most compelling use case.
Taking place during a talk at the 17th annual OpRisk North America conference, USSS agent Tate Jarrow suggested that without digital currencies, “cybercrime would be much more difficult”, according to report by Buy-Side Technology.
The magazine reports Jarrow “did not hold back” his opinion at the conference, alleging that the majority of digital currency activity is generated by criminals.
