> If cash were invented today, it would be illegal

Based on what? Is 2008 not "today," because last I checked cryptocurrencies aren't illegal.

Bitcoin is the furthest thing from cash, every single transaction is transparent on input and output.

On the other hand...

Tornado Cash was made illegal. Pressure is put on exchanges not to service Monero.

Odd that it only happens to actual cash-like crypto?

They're de facto illegal if you ever make a transaction the government can't trace.
