I don't doubt for a second that money laundering and tax evasion services are very lucrative. Look at Cayman Islands. Their per capita GDP (PPP) is higher than in the States!

If you are in the business of offering furtive financial services it makes total sense to stay abreast with the times and add crypto to the portfolio. It's a great instrument for both money laundering and tax evasion.
