Poți Crack Monero? IRS oferă recompensă în șase cifre oricui este capabil să urmărească XMR

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is getting creating creative when it comes to trying to get some oversight into crypto, and specifically, privacy coins like Monero (XMR).

In a statement last month, the IRS created a pilot offering up to $625,000 for anyone who can provably trace Monero or other privacy coin transactions. According to the tax collector, privacy coins have become popular among “illicit actors” such as Sodinokibi (a former affiliate with the GrandCrab RaaS group) who stated that all future ransom payments will be in Monero (XMR) rather than Bitcoin (BTC) due to privacy concerns. The agency wanted to create some incentive to better understand the privacy coin sector since they say “there are limited investigative resources for tracing transactions involving privacy cryptocurrency coins such as Monero.”

„IRS-CI (Investigația Criminală) caută o soluție cu unul sau mai mulți Contractori pentru a oferi soluții inovatoare pentru urmărirea și atribuirea monedelor de confidențialitate și a tranzacțiilor în afara lanțului de Stratul 2, cum ar fi instrumente experte, date, cod sursă, algoritmi și software. servicii de dezvoltare pentru a-și ajuta agenții Cyber ​​Crimes în îndeplinirea misiunii lor în ceea ce privește tehnologiile de confidențialitate a criptomonedei. Acestea ar trebui să sprijine una dintre inițiativele subliniate privind tranzacțiile cu protocolul de rețea Monero sau Layer 2 sau alte tehnologii de ofucare a criptomonedei.”

The IRS outlined trei obiective principale for the initiative that potential contractors would have to deliver. The first is to be able to provide information and technical capabilities to investigators that would allow them to “trace transaction inputs and outputs to a specific user and differentiate them from mixins/multisig actors for Monero and/or Lightning Layer 2 cryptocurrency transactions” all while minimizing the need for external vendors. The second goal is to provide investigators with the technology that would allow them to “predict statistical likelihoods of other transaction inputs, outputs, metadata, and public identifiers.” Lastly, the IRS would want the source code to the technology which would allow them to develop, modify, and integrate it with their own internal systems “minimal costs, licensing issues, or dependency on external vendors.”

Monero was founded in 2014 by largely anonymous developers. It uses ring signatures, zero-knowledge proofs, and “stealth addresses” to make transactions obfuscated and untraceable, though its ledger is public. Currently, it trades at $274, according to CoinMarketCap.
