Even in the ancient Silk Road you could sell contraband effectively using internal, offchain transactions only. The customers pay using offchain transactions using the market, and the vendor can cash out via some trader in the same market.

Like Hawala?

No, not at all.

Basically, if you dont want to deal with the onchain transactions, you could sell the risk of that to someone else and only deal in internal offchain transactions. Dont know if this actually happens though.
