What's fun about crypto is that as soon as criminals try to move their wealth into these digital assets, they start creating a long lasting auditable trail of bread comes for investigators and prosecuters. These systems are up for running complex data analysis on, with the false promises of tax evasion and anonymity, these networks will act as a honey pot. If I can I'll try to find a report written by a former head of a federal law enforcement department (I think CIA) that goes deeper into it.
It’s literally how crypto is designed to work, spread, and gain adoption. Unsecure nodes (criminals) are either caught via the audit trail or forced back into a legit line of work. Either way their corrupt activity finances the secure economy as a kind of UBI (think of greedy gold miners doing nothing but financing the shovel industry)
