yep. one of the understated and more abstract realities of crypto money laundering, as well as licit crypto profits and revenues, is that many crypto natives don’t want their nation’s currency or any fiat.

its been like this for over a decade.

you can get out of volatile coins and into stablecoin onchain.

you can buy goods, services, and investments whether with the volatile coins or with stablecoins.
