Explanation
Using self-hosted wallets, or wallets that are stored on the user's computer, is one of the tactics that may be used to finance terrorism with virtual assets such as Bitcoin. By creating many different donation addresses that are updated continuously, law enforcement will have a harder time tracing transactions.
