Hey, I'm a novelist. You get to do all sorts of dumb shit when you're a novelist, assuming the NSA buys it. The unfortunate thing is that international dark pool finance has gotten so much less interesting since the era of "untraceable numbered Swiss accounts." Much like the drama that evaporated when cell phones became ubiquitous, the fact that any chucklefuck with an internet connection can now splash hundreds of thousands of untraceable dollars around with zero repercussions and zero drama required me to find my drama elsewhere. Which is fine. Makes it more real. But it's made me a lot less sympathetic to the plea that money can't be transmitted across borders easily.
