Theory vs. practice. When there's a DoJ case with a web that's all unified through Monero, then you have proof Monero has been busted. Monero hasn't been busted.

From the paper - "Our techniques show that Monero is not necessarily a dead end for investigators."

And then offers zero evidence to demonstrate that investigators were able to use anything from the seizures.

This is not evidence - "They (mistakenly?) advised their hopeful subscribers to publish their email addresses (hexencoded, but publicly visible) in the Monero blockchain, leading to these transactions being identified" [31]

Link is broken - where is the evidence that 1500 XMR was transacted?
