2% of money on bank accounts have been involved in some crime.

What would you set as a threshold?

I'd invalidate that 2%.
That's exactly as stupid as invalidating, say, a 20€ note that I got in change from paying a taxi ride, and the driver received in good faith from some crook who took a ride with him before me. By "invalidating" it, you're robbing me of the worth of that note, those 20€, even though I had nothing to do with that crook.
