How Do Crypto Flows Finance Slavery?

 The paper "How Do Crypto Flows Finance Slavery? The Economics of Pig Butchering" examines how criminal organizations involved in "pig butchering" scams utilize cryptocurrencies to finance their activities. [cite_start]These scams often involve human trafficking, with an estimated 220,000 individuals forcibly held in Southeast Asia to operate them[cite: 16].

Key findings from the paper include:

* [cite_start]**Scale of Illicit Flows**: Between 2021 and 2023, criminal enterprises moved approximately $27.8 billion annually into suspicious exchange deposit accounts, including $5.6 billion annually sent from Western exchanges[cite: 4, 47]. [cite_start]The estimated annual activity for these criminal networks ranges from $16.9 billion to $33.8 billion[cite: 55, 384].

* [cite_start]**Crypto Exchange Facilitation**: "Reputable" crypto exchanges, particularly large centralized ones like Binance, Huobi, and OKX, serve as primary entry and exit points for these illicit funds[cite: 5, 43, 68, 75, 413]. [cite_start]These exchanges are often perceived to have looser Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures and may be outside U.S. jurisdiction[cite: 44].

* [cite_start]**Obfuscation Methods**: Scammers extensively recirculate and swap funds across different addresses and cryptocurrencies to impede tracing tools and obfuscate the true source of their funds[cite: 52, 58, 59]. [cite_start]Decentralized exchanges, such as Tokenlon, are frequently used for these swaps, with scammer swap transactions constituting over 60% of all Tokenlon swap transactions monthly[cite: 59, 296, 297].

* [cite_start]**Preferred Cryptocurrencies**: Romance scammers prefer the stablecoin Tether (USDT) over other cryptocurrencies and primarily use the Ethereum blockchain over Bitcoin for their operations[cite: 72, 208, 301]. [cite_start]Funds often enter in ETH, USDC, and Wrapped BTC but are later almost exclusively swapped to Tether[cite: 204].

* [cite_start]**Inducement Payments**: Perpetrators send over 98,000 small "trust-building inducement payments" annually to exchanges commonly used by U.S. and European investors (e.g., Coinbase, Crypto.com)[cite: 2, 70]. [cite_start]These small payments (often $100, $200, or $500) are designed to build trust with victims and encourage larger investments[cite: 571, 572, 397]. [cite_start]The consistent patterns of these payments suggest limited monitoring by crypto exchanges[cite: 573, 419].

* [cite_start]**Victim Demographics Shift**: While large inflows from potential Chinese victims were observed in 2020, there has been a shift to U.S. and European victims after China banned cryptocurrency trading in late 2021[cite: 600, 282, 284].

* [cite_start]**Transaction Costs**: Transaction costs for these illicit crypto flows are estimated to be approximately 33 basis points (0.33%) of the funds moved to scammer deposit addresses, making it a cost-effective channel for moving illicit funds across borders compared to traditional methods[cite: 590, 595, 224].

* [cite_start]**Implications**: The findings suggest that better monitoring of inducement payments and more robust oversight of crypto exchanges are crucial to combatting these scams and disrupting criminal financial flows[cite: 67, 70, 420, 423].

I asked ChatGPT the top ten things humanity should know.

 I asked ChatGPT the top ten things humanity should know.

Educational Purpose Only

1. You Are Being Tracked Constantly

Every phone, app, browser, and smart device feeds data into corporate and government surveillance systems. Even "private" modes aren’t private. Most people have no idea how deep the rabbit hole goes.

2. Food Is Engineered to Keep You Addicted and Sick

Ultra-processed foods are intentionally designed to bypass your satiety signals and create repeat customers. The rise in obesity, diabetes, and chronic illness isn't just a coincidence—it's a business model.

3. The Internet Is Being Sanitized and Controlled

What you see online is increasingly filtered by algorithms that are tuned for engagement, not truth. Shadowbanning, content suppression, and narrative shaping are real and quietly normalized.

4. Money Is Created Out of Thin Air

Banks don’t just “store” money—they create it through debt. Every time a loan is issued, money is literally fabricated. Most people still believe there’s some vault somewhere with real cash. There isn’t.

5. Modern Medicine Often Treats Symptoms, Not Causes

The healthcare system is largely reactive, not preventive. Pharmaceutical lobbying has more influence on what treatments are promoted than actual patient outcomes. Root causes like diet, environment, and stress are under-addressed.

6. Most History Taught in Schools Is Sanitized or Incomplete

Textbooks often reflect the politics of those in power, not the full truth. From colonialism to covert operations, much of modern geopolitics is built on omitted or distorted history.

7. The Digital Divide Is Widening

AI, automation, and digital infrastructure are growing faster than society is adapting. Those without access to these tools or skills will be left economically and politically voiceless.

8. Space Isn’t as Far Away as You Think

The Kármán line—the accepted edge of space—is only about 62 miles (100 km) up. We live on a thin crust of atmosphere that’s terrifyingly fragile, yet we treat it like a garbage bin.

9. Synthetic Biology and Gene Editing Are Advancing Quietly

CRISPR, mRNA tech, and gene drives are progressing fast—much faster than regulation or ethical discussion. We're rewriting life, and most people don’t even know what’s being tested.

10. Economic Collapse Is Always Closer Than It Looks

Every economy runs on confidence. Once that cracks—whether from debt, war, banking instability, or black swan events—the illusion of stability vanishes fast. Think 2008, but faster and more global.

nobody-but-yourself

 To be nobody-but-yourself—in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else—means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. — E. E. CUMMINGS

Persistence Techniques

 

Command Explained

Let's break down the command from the image:

C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /create /sc ONSTART /tn System /tr "rundll32 C:\Windows\System32\config\login.dll Test" /ru system

• schtasks.exe: A legitimate Windows tool for managing scheduled tasks.
• /create: An option to create a new task.
• /sc ONSTART: Specifies the schedule. ONSTART means the task will run at every system startup.
• /tn System: Assigns a task name. "System" is a deceptive name chosen to blend in with legitimate system tasks.
• /tr "...": Specifies the task to run. In this case, it's rundll32 C:\Windows\System32\config\login.dll Test.
  • rundll32.exe: A Windows utility used to execute functions stored in Dynamic-Link Library (.dll) files.
  • C:\Windows\System32\config\login.dll: The path to a malicious DLL file. The name and location are chosen to appear legitimate.
  • Test: The specific malicious function inside the login.dll file that will be executed.
• /ru system: Defines the user account to run the task. system (NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM) grants the highest level of privileges on the local machine, allowing the malware to perform any action.

In short: This command creates a hidden, high-privilege task that executes malicious code from a DLL file every time the computer boots up.

---

Other Examples of Persistence Techniques

Attackers use many different methods to achieve persistence. Here are some of the most common ones on Windows systems:

1. Registry Run Keys

The Windows Registry has specific keys that cause programs to run automatically at startup. An attacker can simply add a new entry pointing to their malicious executable.

• Path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
• Example Command:

  reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v "Adobe Updater" /t REG_SZ /d "C:\Users\Public\malware.exe" /f
  

  This command adds a registry entry named "Adobe Updater" that runs malware.exe when the current user logs in.

2. Startup Folder

Windows has a Startup folder for each user and one for all users. Any program, script, or shortcut placed in this folder will automatically run when the user logs in.

• Path: %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
• Example Action: An attacker could simply copy their malicious file, for instance backdoor.exe, into this directory.

3. Malicious Windows Services

Creating a new Windows Service is a very effective persistence method because services can run in the background, even without a user logged in, often with high privileges.

• Example Command:

  sc create "SysHelper" binPath= "C:\Windows\Temp\malicious_service.exe" start= "auto" DisplayName= "System Helper Service"
  

  This command uses the sc (Service Control) tool to create a new service named "SysHelper". It's set to auto start at boot and points to a malicious executable.

4. WMI Event Subscription

A more advanced and stealthy technique involves using Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). An attacker can create a subscription that triggers a malicious action in response to a specific system event (like a user logging on or at a certain time interval). This method is harder to detect because it doesn't leave traces in common locations like the Registry Run keys or Startup folder.

• Concept: An attacker defines a filter (the event to watch for) and a consumer (the action to take).
• Example Action: A WMI subscription could be configured to launch a PowerShell script that downloads and executes malware from the internet every hour.

Legal-style analysis of the Dialectica Terms of Engagement

Legal-style analysis of the Dialectica Terms of Engagement

---

1. Nature of the Relationship

Dialectica clearly establishes that Experts are independent contractors, not employees or agents. This distinction is reinforced throughout the agreement, including disclaimers of employment benefits and authority to act on behalf of Dialectica or its clients.

Legal Implication: This limits Dialectica’s liability for employment-related claims and places the burden of tax and insurance compliance on the Expert.

---

2. Eligibility and Compliance

Experts must ensure that participation in Consultations does not violate:

• Laws or regulations (e.g., insider trading, confidentiality)
• Contractual obligations (e.g., NDAs, employment agreements)
• Fiduciary duties

Legal Implication: The burden of compliance is on the Expert. Misrepresentation or failure to disclose conflicts can result in termination, forfeiture of fees, or legal action.

---

3. Confidentiality and IP

The agreement imposes strict confidentiality obligations, including:

• Non-disclosure of client identities or Consultation content
• Prohibition on using confidential information for personal gain
• Survival of confidentiality obligations beyond termination

IP Ownership:

• Consultation Materials become the property of Dialectica or its clients.
• Retained Content used in Consultations is licensed to Dialectica and its clients on a perpetual, royalty-free basis.

Legal Implication: Experts must be cautious about sharing any proprietary or third-party content. They relinquish IP rights over Consultation deliverables and recordings.

---

4. Use of AI Tools

The agreement strictly prohibits the use of AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot) in any part of the engagement.

Legal Implication: Violations could lead to termination, forfeiture of fees, and potential legal claims for breach of contract or misrepresentation.

---

5. Payment Terms

• Compensation is based on actual time spent in Consultations.
• No payment for prep time, cancellations, or follow-ups.
• Payment is contingent on timely submission of payment info and compliance with the Terms.
• Overpayments must be refunded; Dialectica may offset future payments.

Legal Implication: Experts must maintain accurate records and comply with administrative requirements to secure payment. There is no recourse for canceled sessions.

---

6. Monitoring and Recording

Experts consent to monitoring and recording of Consultations. They are prohibited from recording sessions themselves.

Legal Implication: This clause supports Dialectica’s compliance and quality assurance efforts but may raise privacy concerns for Experts.

---

7. Dispute Resolution

• Disputes are subject to binding arbitration in London, governed by the laws of England and Wales.
• Dialectica may seek injunctive relief in any competent court.

Legal Implication: Experts waive the right to litigate in their home jurisdiction and must resolve disputes confidentially through arbitration.

---

8. Indemnification and Liability

• Experts indemnify Dialectica for any claims arising from their breach or misconduct.
• Dialectica’s liability is limited to the fees paid in the relevant month.

Legal Implication: This heavily favors Dialectica, limiting its exposure while placing significant risk on the Expert.

---

9. Data Protection and Sanctions

• Experts must comply with data protection laws and Dialectica’s Privacy Policy.
• Experts must not be subject to international sanctions.

Legal Implication: Non-compliance could result in immediate termination and legal consequences.

---

Conclusion

This agreement is comprehensive and strongly protective of Dialectica’s interests. It places significant compliance, confidentiality, and liability obligations on the Expert. A lawyer would likely advise:

• Careful review of any existing employment or contractual obligations before participating.
• Strict adherence to confidentiality and compliance protocols.
• Avoidance of any AI tool usage.
• Awareness of the limited recourse for payment disputes or cancellations.

You further agree to promptly inform Dialectica of any changes to this information – including but not limited to your employment, legal, or regulatory history – before each Consultation. Providing false or misleading information to Us or our clients is a material breach of these Terms and may lead to the penalties provided for herein or any other legal or regulatory action permissible under the law. Dialectica reserves the right to verify any information you provide to Us or our clients using internal and external resources. You hereby agree to cooperate with all reasonable requests by Dialectica to verify your information, and acknowledge and agree that your failure to do so may be considered a breach of these Terms and result in, among other things, forfeiture of any agreed compensation promised or received in connection with a Consultation.

In connection with your membership in the Network or a Consultation, you may be required to review and complete certain training materials or modules (“Training Materials”), from either Dialectica or our clients, designed to ensure that you understand and agree to the rules and regulations applicable to your participation in Consultations, including certain compliance-related requirements of Dialectica and our clients. Any such Training Materials that you review and complete are incorporated into these Terms, and you agree to review and complete the Training Materials in a timely manner when requested and to follow any guidelines or instructions therein. If you are unable or unwilling to follow such guidelines or instructions, you must notify Dialectica immediately by sending an email to compliance@dialecticanet.com.

PARTICIPATION IN CONSULTATIONS

Eligibility and Conflicts of Interest

If Dialectica contacts you about a potential Consultation, you must review the description of the Consultation carefully to determine: (1) whether you have any restrictions (contractual or otherwise) that would preclude your participation in the Consultation, (2) that you have the relevant experience to consult on the subject matter to be discussed, and (3) that participating in the Consultation will not present a conflict of interest. Specifically, and by way of example but not an exhaustive list, you must decline participation in a Consultation under the following circumstances:

If you know or have reasonable grounds to suspect that your participation would violate any law or regulation;

If you know or have reasonable grounds to suspect that your participation would result in a breach of any agreement, contractual obligation, or duty of confidentiality owed to any third party;

If your participation would likely infringe upon any obligations owed to your current or former employer, or any government or government instrumentality, including obtaining necessary consents where required;

If you are aware that the client that is involved in the Consultation competes directly with an entity where you are currently employed, or where you serve as a director, trustee, officer, board member, or hold a similar position; or

If you are employed by, collaborate with, or have any professional engagement with a company or organization that has initiated, is undergoing, or has been involved in a tender or takeover process - whether directly or on behalf of an affiliated entity - you must decline participation if the subject matter of the Consultation is relevant to the market in which such company operates.

Further, to avoid conflicts of interest that relate to your current or former employment, profession or experience, you also agree that:

If you are: (1) an employee, officer, or other person acting in an official capacity for any (a) government or government instrumentality, (b) government owned or controlled organization, (c) public international organization or (d) any political party; or (2) a candidate for political office (any and all of the preceding are referred to hereinafter as a “Government Official”), you will not discuss legislation, regulation, policy, contracts, or other business that you are in a position to vote upon or otherwise influence, and you further agree to promptly notify Dialectica if you become a Government Official at any time during your membership in the Dialectica Network;

If you have worked in an accounting and or finance department of any company within six (6) months of a Consultation, you will not discuss accounting or financial matters relating to that company or any of its affiliates during the Consultation;

If you are an auditor, or former auditor, you will not discuss any companies you have audited during the three (3) years preceding the Consultation; and

If you are a medical doctor (MD) or healthcare professional who is participating or has participated in a clinical trial, you will not discuss clinical trial results, patient experiences, or any related material before it's publicly released. You further agree to not disclose any Protected Health Information (PHI) unless legally required to do so and that you will maintain professional independence and avoid any transfers of value (payments, gifts, incentives) that could influence your judgment. Compensation for your participation reflects the fair market value of your services, based on your skills and experience, and is not tied to referrals or business with our clients, nor should it be seen as an incentive to refer patients or order specific products.

Permissible Interactions and Discussions

In connection with any Consultation, you must not make any misrepresentations, mislead or deceive Dialectica, Our clients, or any relevant third parties regarding your expertise and experience, and you must not accept Consultation opportunities whose stated subject matter is outside of your areas of experience and expertise. Further, you must provide your own independent insights and perspectives during a Consultation. You may not present third-party information as your own, nor may you involve any third parties in your interactions with Dialectica or our clients or in connection with any Consultation, or otherwise engaging with the Sites and Services, without the express written consent of Dialectica in each instance.

Use of Artificial Intelligence Strictly Prohibited

You are strictly prohibited from using any system or software that uses artificial intelligence or machine learning to perform tasks (“AI Tools) – including but not limited to ChatGPT, Gemini, or Copilot – in connection with your participation in the Network or at any stage of a Consultation, or otherwise engaging with the Sites and Services. For example, you may not use such AI Tools to respond to questions or requests for information designed to enable Dialectica or Our clients to assess your suitability for a Consultation.

Monitoring and Recording of Consultations

You acknowledge and agree that your participation in a Consultation and your access and use of the Sites and Services may be monitored and recorded by Dialectica or Our clients for compliance requirements or other purposes. In addition to any consents that may be requested and obtained at or immediately prior to any such monitoring or recording taking place, including by third-party monitoring or recording services, you hereby consent to such monitoring or recording without any further notice. You are not permitted to record or transcribe any Consultations, or to allow any third party, including any bot or agent, to join or otherwise be involved in a Consultation, without Dialectica’s prior written consent

Term and Termination

Your membership in the Network and your eligibility to participate in Consultations shall remain in effect from the date on which you click to accept or otherwise accept these Terms, participate in a Consultation, or otherwise access the Sites and Services (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue until the earlier of one year from the Effective Date or the date on which either (a) Dialectica notifies you that your membership and eligibility has been terminated or (b) you notify Dialectica that you no longer wish to be a member of the Network or participate in Consultations (the “Termination Date”). Either you or Dialectica may terminate with immediate effect your membership in the Network or eligibility to participate in Consultations at any time upon written notice to the other party.

All Consultations must be arranged through Dialectica. You are not permitted to share your contact information directly with any client or any party involved in a Consultation without Dialectica's prior written consent in each instance. If one of Our clients contacts you directly, without Our knowledge, you must inform Us immediately. Dialectica will not pay any Fee (defined below) or otherwise provide you with any compensation, or be in any way responsible, for interactions that take place outside of Dialectica’s Network, including follow-up activity relating to an authorized Consultation.

PAYMENT FOR CONSULTATIONS

By participating in a Consultation, you may be entitled to compensation (the “Fee”), typically in the form of an hourly fee for your time spent on a Consultation, prorated to the duration of the Consultation and subject to the terms and conditions herein. The amount and other details relating to your Fee, if any, shall be established between you and Dialectica (possibly in coordination with our clients), in writing and in advance of a Consultation, with email being a sufficient form of writing for this purpose. Any such written confirmation of the Fee is incorporated herein by reference. Unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Dialectica in writing, the Fee is calculated based only on the actual time spent on a Consultation and will not include time waiting for a Consultation to begin, time set aside for a Consultation, time spent preparing for or following up on a Consultation, including any communications or time spent evaluating your suitability for participation in a Consultation. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be entitled to a Fee for a scheduled Consultation that is later canceled.

Upon completion of a Consultation, We will send you, via email to the email address We have on file for you, a secure link through which you can provide Us with your payment information. We will process the payment of your Fee within ten (10) calendar days from the date on which you submit your payment information provided that you have submitted complete and accurate payment information within five (5) calendar days of receiving the secure link, and you are otherwise eligible for a Fee based on the terms and conditions herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dialectica reserves the right to reasonably delay payment processing due to administrative, technical, or other operational reasons, in which case we will endeavor to notify you and process payment as promptly as practicable. Specifically, in addition to other rights and remedies established herein or that Dialectica may have in law or in equity, you will lose any right to a Fee or other compensation if Dialectica determines, in good faith, that you have violated these Terms or the Code, including, but not limited to, by providing false or misleading information about your identity, your education and employment history, your professional background and experience, or any legal or regulatory history you may have. To the extent you have already received payment for Consultations involving such violations, Dialectica shall have the right to recover such payments in full.

If an error is made in connection with a payment by Dialectica which resulted in an overpayment, you shall immediately refund the mistaken amount to Dialectica. Without limiting any other rights or remedies We may have, Dialectica reserves the right, at its sole discretion and upon giving you ten (10) days written notice, to offset such overpayment against future payments to which you otherwise would be entitled in connection with future Consultations.

If you are associated with a company, you must follow the company's policies that may relate to payment by Dialectica (if any). If the company has specified that payments should be remitted to it, you agree, so long as your association with the company exists, that payments will be made to the company. You hereby acknowledge and agree (a) that You will provide us in advance with the company's full corporate details, as well as with evidence of your business association with it, (b) that payment of the Fee will be made on condition that We receive a valid invoice from the company and (c) that, if the company is based outside the UK, payment of the Fee will be processed on condition that it is not subject to any indirect taxes imposed as per the tax law of the jurisdiction where the company is based (including, but not limited to, VAT, Goods and Services Tax, Sales Tax, and stamp duty).

You hereby acknowledge and agree that: (1) Dialectica is not responsible for any fees imposed by your banking or payment institution in connection with payment of the Fee; and (2) you, or the company, as the case may be pursuant to the above paragraph, are solely responsible for any and all payment due for the fulfillment of any tax or insurance (or equivalent) obligations in your jurisdiction, or in the jurisdiction where the company is established, in connection with a Consultation or receipt of the Fee by you, or by the company, as the case may be pursuant to the above paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Dialectica is obliged to withhold tax on a Fee or other payment in connection with a Consultation, Dialectica will determine the amount, deduct any required withholding tax from the gross payment, and notify, accordingly, you, or the company, as the case may be pursuant to the above paragraph.

You may elect to participate in a Consultation on a pro bono basis, subject to prior written notification and confirmation through Dialectica. By doing so, you acknowledge and agree that this Consultation will not be eligible for compensation.
