So you've been vending for several years on multiple darknet markets. You've made good money. Some of your wealth you have converted to fiat, some you have left as BTC. Some you've invested and some you have spent. You understand that vending is not a viable long-term strategy and the long play is to use the cash you've made as seed capital to start legitimate businesses. You might have tens of thousands, you might have hundreds of thousands. My question is what are these easiest kinds of businesses to establish if you are a cashed up vendor looking to transition into legal, legitimate businesses?
And I'm not talking about 'start a car wash to launder your money.' At this point you know how to launder you money, you've got the fronts in place make your money look hard earned. You're paying tax on it and its part of your income and it's starting to pile up and now you need to use it to start real businesses, with a view to ceasing vending altogether down the track.
Service businesses, Amazon selling, game development, brick and mortar retail outlets, property development? Where have you had success in establishing businesses using the proceeds of your vending as capital?
Service is what has the lowest entry cost and least training involved in brainstorming an idea. Start thinking about how you could organize people to do something better than it is currently being done. I can see decentralized shipping as one of these if your start-up capital is in the 100s of thousands and you can get some loans. Hubs in large towns. Set up like uber. Contractor deliveries. People making cross country trips could carry packages across the country.
