#3Something I don't understand. What's the point of obfuscation if ultimately you can be caught when you try to convert it to fiat?
If I have Btc and I convert it to monero to prevent tracking, how do I get it back to money in my bank account without being traceable?

Well, what you're asking about is basically a business. Most folks make bank just by setting up that kind of circle. I'd suggest reading up on front businesses like luxury restaurants that sit empty most of the time. it's such a classic play, everyone knows it. If you've got BTC and want to get it back into your bank account, hit me up anytime.

Bitcoin's traceability ruins its fungibility.

Because your auntie is using BTC to pay for her coffee? If anything she's using cashapp.

That's exactly how people get caught.

The idea is to not convert it into fiat. Create a parallel economy where monero is the actual currency, not some intermediary currency. Price things in monero.
