If I have $50k in USD, how can anything avoid leaving a paper trail when you convert that to something else?

At that point, why not use cash? You’re already restricting yourself to small amounts and avoiding major purchases, so what does adding a cryptocurrency give you?

As as been repeatedly demonstrated to you, holding cash is unsafe, because it can be seized by the government without you ever having committed a crime.

As has been repeatedly demonstrated to you, you have protection from it being seized through the insidious civil asset forfeiture procedure.
