Track Data and Crypto Currencies

    Are there any sites that allow a person to trade track data from a gift card(like vanilla Visa) for crypto currencies and vice versa?

    Would this be legal if the gift card was legitimately purchased?

    Everything I see requires a headache of taking a punch of pictures of the card and providing receipts and shit. So it's not worth it that way.

    I know Purse allows buying bitcoin with an Amazon gift card, which is what I've been doing. But MSR reader/writers are cheap.

    The issue isn't technical or even legal, it's financial due to the risk of credit card chargebacks.

    I could trade you track data for bitcoin, you could write and spend the prepaid card funds and then send me my crypto.

    Its the data that's on the magnetic strip on a plastic card. There's three tracks.

    I would think it's tricky because with just the tracks, they'd either have to validate the data with the issuer (value, validity) or take you at your word

    I was thinking of a rating system thing so that people could build up their rep. Also, gift cards dont have a name on the track.

    I been thinking lately, what does anybody know about where bitcoin and other crypto are nowadays with regards to traceability?

    I've not been too up with it much since coming out of jail so its been nearly 4 years since I did much trading on the dnm's.

    Like does tumbling coin still work?

    Is there any possibility of them tracking btc after tumbling, and what if you tumble coins multiple times?

    I hear monero is supposedly more anonymous than btc, is this true and how come?

    Thx in advance.

    All it does is obscure the path coins took in the blockchain; authorities could probably match them up if they had access to the tumbler service's records (assuming they're kept) but outside of that I haven't heard of any analysis being successful. I honestly wouldn't even bother unless you're dealing in large sums of money, in which case do your own reading on the matter because you have a lot more to lose.

    Yeah I haven't dealt with it really, but apparently the transactions in the blockchain are recorded in such a way that it's not possible to establish a history for each unit of currency; ie. once a coin is spent or transferred the transaction is obfuscated so that an observer can't tell where it actually came from.
    The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!
