You obviously didnt even watch the video.
"I'm going to explain why I think Monero is super cool. It really is the frontline of the arms race between cryptographers and investigators like us...Monero has an incredible developer team they are always looking for weaknesses in their privacy protocols, and so they're really proactive in making their protocol the most secure and private that it can be. So theres just really interesting things happning here cryptographically and so that means we also have to do interesting things to >>>try<<< and track it."
"I'm not feeling super confident about this"
"It appears"
"We believe"
They basically only managed to trace it because the target used a chainalaysis node to broadcast their transaction + coordinated with centralized swap services + user didn't hide their IP address. Who would've thought? 🤷‍♂️
Remove any one of those 3 and they wouldn't have been able to.

Thanks. More good quotes from the video.
It's so funny when Bitcoin maxis bring up this video because most of them obviously have never watched it. This was highly targeted and the user made many mistakes.
Imagine instead of Bitcoin the user had been transacting with Bitcoin. It wouldn't have required even half these mistakes to trace it lmao. FCMP upgrade will make even this attack impossible soon.
