Never reuse wallets. Mix your bitcoin. Encrypt all communications. Avoid dicussing your cocaine import business on random forums. There you go u/zaganom. Feel free to grab a few hours sleep.

Also I really doubt any of this technology is new. I would be amazed if LE are not already monitoring forums in real time and analyzing the data using similar tools. Many dw forums are a useful source of information for LE because people don't understand how to shut up about some things.

They are talking about linking your discussion post to your "btc wallet" by matching writing patterns, which I find strange as most people don't add a btc address to their comments or profiles as far as I know, except if they are doing some actual work for free like blogging guides or github projects, which then could use donations.

I mean is what they will find just something like the wallets that belongs to Grams for example? Or Reddit moderators?

They don't say how it can link them to criminals, but it should be presented in November, so lets see what they come up with, but I hardly think its something that hasn't been seen before in one way or the other?
