Title: Tainted Alt Currency: How to Laundry Kickbacks & Drug Loot Post by: Phinnaeus Gage on November 08, 2012, 01:21:17 AM Dirty laundry: Should casinos be responsible for knowing where the money comes from? (http://www.lasvegasweekly.com/news/2012/nov/07/dirty-laundry-should-casinos-be-responsible-knowin/)
Quote The potentially laundered money came from a former Fry’s Electronics executive (Ausaf Umar Siddiqui) and a Chinese-born Mexican businessman (Zhenil Ye Gon). Siddiqui was jailed for accepting illegal kickbacks; Ye Gon was indicted on drug trafficking charges. They both liked to gamble at Adelson’s properties.

Money is money. By forcing people to find out where it came from just makes it harder for startups to get off the ground (Such as Bitcoin Casinos) and raise operating costs.
