IRS Wants to Pay $625,000 for Tools to Track Monero
The United States Internal Revenue Service is offering $625,000 for Monero-tracing software, according to a recently published proposal request.
In the proposal request, the IRS described the need for “innovative solutions for tracing and attribution of privacy coins,” including Monero and the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
The use of privacy coins is becoming more popular for general use, and is also seeing an increase in use by illicit actors,” the IRS wrote in the proposal. “Currently, there are limited investigative resources for tracing transactions involving privacy cryptocurrency coins such as Monero, Layer 2 network protocol transactions such as Lightning Labs, or other off-chain transactions that provide privacy to illicit actors.”
The IRS is planning on spending $1 million this fiscal year on multiple proposals, according to the document.

Wyden and Warren Demand Investigation into IRS Warrantless Location Tracking
A unit of the IRS previously bought access to location data harvested from ordinary apps installed on peoples’ phones to try and identify individuals.
Ron Wyden and Elizabeth Warren want a formal investigation into the IRS' use of smartphone location data to track Americans without a warrant.
On Thursday, the two Senators sent a letter to the body tasked with oversight of the IRS demanding it investigate how a section of the IRS bought access to this data.
The news highlights the continued tread of law enforcement agencies obtaining location data that would ordinarily require a warrant to do, by simply purchasing the data from commercial providers instead.

'Largest illegal darknet marketplace' DarkMarket taken offline
Authorities say the darknet platform had half a million users, where drugs, counterfeit money, stolen credit card data, anonymous SIM cards and malware were traded. The suspected operator was arrested in Germany.
German prosecutors in the cities of Koblenz and Oldenburg said on Tuesday that they had shut down what was "probably the largest illegal marketplace on the Darknet" called DarkMarket and arrested the man believed to operate it near Germany's border with Denmark.
The detained man, believed to be DarkMarket's operator, is a 34-year-old Australian national.
Authorities say drugs, counterfeit money, stolen credit card data, anonymous SIM cards and malware were all traded on the site, which had a half a million users and transacted business in cryptocurrencies equivalent to a value of €140 million ($170 million).
Oldenburg police said the raid took place over the weekend. "Investigators were able to shut down the marketplace and turn off the server on Monday," prosecutors said.
International probe
DarkMarket's bust was not the first for German authorities, which have found illegal platform operators on German soil in recent years. In 2019, Koblenz prosecurots announced the discovery of darknet servers hosted from a former NATO bunker in a sleepy German town.
Authorities say the probe that uncovered DarkMarket involved a months-long international law enforcement operation.
US agencies like the #FBI, #DEA narcotics law enforcement division and #IRS tax authority all contributed to the investigation, along with police from #Australia, #Britain, #Denmark, #Switzerland, #Ukraine and #Moldova, with #Europol playing a "coordinating role."
