After all, doesn’t matter where you are in the world, if you’ve got USD in your hands, you’re subject to US law.

I hope this is meant sarcastically.

This is far more true than you know. Almost everyone in the west is subject to US law via our extra-territorial wire fraud or money laundering statutes that will get you as soon as anything ( read: most everything) you touch remotely touches the US banking system.

I'm aware of this, I'm trying to ascertain whether GP thinks this is great or not.
