Both localmonero and agoradesk state they have wound down last month.
Do you know what alternatives there are now?
Is openmonero.i2p reputable?

Edit: I see someone claiming the associated clearnet site openmonero.co is a scam, I will mask the link for now.

Edit Edit:
openmonero .i2p and .co are scams, I reached one of the sellers whose info had been copied. I found success in using retoswap (haveno-reto).

That's quite a story! It sounded like the thug had poor opsec in transferring the crypto into his coinbase account. Transferring thousands of dollars into an account attached to one's identity was quite a stupid move...but nobody said that thugs are smart. Even Monero can be cracked, from what I've heard. On the other hand, Bitcoin isn't really anonymous. The transactions are visible on the blockchain and easy enough to trace.

Also, the pink revolver was really tough and manly.

The wallet software was distributed through i2p and Google Playstore etc. 4 million in 10 years is chump change: a bad year for Hunter B. or a few hours for a casino. This is Red Hairing selective enforcement. They could have sent them to jail for jaywalking. A shame!
I got more info on the MIT Mexi-cans Etherum and it was an internal fight brewing for 4 years. They should give them the PhD (prove here dummy) and a bug bounty but the "victims" are well connected.

There are several ways in fooling the electric company and not pay for power. I did not it in a very long time (4 decades). There is another problem with the electrical signature of a computer plugged into the power grid. A friend of mine was a saleman for a company that made UPSes (uninterupted power supply that masked the signature to grid). There is also an electromagnetic signature (that I can mask myself). My guess is that either was a rat or the money printers starting to use this type of technology on regular bases.
