It was not 'pictures of monkeys' it was art. It was digital art. If you don't get that then you don't understand money laundering.

You can’t money launder with bitcoin. The whole purpose is that everything is traceable.

  1. Joe gives Kevin $1mil worth of Cocaine.
  2. Joe draws an ape in MS paint.
  3. Kevin buys the digital ape drawing from Joe for $1mil in Bitcoin.

That is how you launder money with art and Bitcoin.
