If we had a digital currency would there not be quickly a money laundering scheme that would come up around it now even though the digital currency would be completely tractable. You wouldn't even be able to launder your money if you didn't have a VPN because they could find out how you're communicating with people etc so that's interestingYeah and I don't know if you could barter it off but let me give you a little context right now the concern is the government would know what you're doing  cash is the only way you can do things without them seeing but cash as a way to get away with stuff is shrinking.
