I know this form of distribution is often lauded on this forum, but I would like to discuss the vulnerabilities and downsides.
For example, it seems this is reliant on non-pgp technology, on encrypted messenger apps. While there are good ones, I'm sure this does present more ways to compromise the group.
Second, the amount of effort seems higher. On the retail end, one has to find lots and lots of stash spots, which requires lots of effort to find good ones, and continously find more as they will inevitably be discovered.
On larger scale, it's harder to have a discrete hiding spot for say pounds and up. One needs less spots, but more security and isolation around those spots.
Of course, crypto being the main currency is a pro and a con, but that's not unique to this distribution method, but does require more than cash.
I can see this being a good method even at scale, as the drop gang that supplies the grams is supplied by a drop gang that is supplied in ounces, that is supplied by a drop gang that is supplied in pounds. Layers of people not knowing each other, which imo is a huge plus.
Theoretically could be a lot harder to crack, but at the same time requires lots of technological expertise and knowledge at all levels, which most do not have.
