Memo on Online Conduct

During ongoing investigations, The Police officers have observed that many users handle blockchain transactions without due caution.

Remember this essential Nobody's guideline:

Treat every transaction as if your parents, spouse, partner, and tax collector will eventually find out about it.

Some users mistakenly view blockchain as an anonymous space. This is a serious misconception, as it is quite the opposite. Your financial history, including sources of income and recipients, is openly accessible to anyone, anytime. The only unknown is when someone might choose to look into it.

To avoid unwanted consequences, stick to these basic rules:

When using a public address (which could be tied to your real identity):

• Deposit only funds with a verifiable and legitimate origin;
• Avoid sending funds to addresses that could harm your reputation;
• Don’t store large sums on public addresses.

When using an address you wish to keep private:

• Avoid linking it to your other addresses through transactions;
• Don’t use nicknames from other networks or messengers to identify this address.

A common mistake The Police encounters is users connecting their real nicknames and addresses to NFTs from their avatars on other networks, later claiming that this was done by malicious actors with unclear motives.

While The Police does not have the authority to press charges, consider whether such an excuse would satisfy a tax inspector.

Commercial Reminder:
The Police is available for blockchain investigations and security consultations.
