BitMEX Flags @kristapsk's Account for CoinJoin Deposit Over 6 Months Old

BitMEX Flagged CoinJoin JoinMarket

BitMEX flagged @kristapsk’s account and demanded KYC/AML data due to a coinjoin deposit made over six months prior.

Got an e-mail from @BitMEX about old #Bitcoin deposit transaction (last summer) that “may be connected with activity that is against 1.1(a) of the HDR Terms of Service.”, it was @joinmarket coinjoin. #privacy

Asked me to do KYC (will not do, I don’t care about Bitmex account anymore) and reply with details about specific transaction (likely will do, describing it’s a coinjoin).
