A cryptocurrency developer has received threats to his personal safety because his involvement in certain projects was construed to indicate darknet market involvement.
PyschicCat1 posted on Reddit that he had received threats to his family and his personal safety because of allegations of his involvement in the darknet market Trade Route, an accusation he emphatically denies:
The likely cause of PsychicCat1’s case of assumed involvement is his involvement as a contributor to Monero, a cryptocurrency solely focused on anonymous transactions, since 2015. Monero has been used in past darknet markets such as Oasis and AlphaBay.
