I've been told I can use USD to buy drugs too. In fact, USD is the number one currency on the planet for nefarious purposes, by an absurd amount.
Monero has a 24h buy/sell volume of only $110m. What do you think the global volume is for drug/nefarious trade?
Using crypto for "bad things" is a rounding error in the grand scheme of things.
Given that Mastercard just stopped allowing debit card usage at Cannabis stores (which makes sense, it is a source of fraud with cashbacks), it seems like there should be a way that people can buy things without having to take on risk by carrying cash into a store.

I never said drugs were "bad things". Some of them are, but some of them aren't. I was genuinely pointing out that getting access to certain unfairly prohibited drugs was a positive benefit that some people get from cryptocurrency.

See, there's another illegal drug you might be able to buy with cryptocurrency! My point exactly.
Buying or selling cannabis anywhere in the United States is a federal crime. I’m not sure what the White House has to do with this, unless you’re making a topical joke but that was cocaine.
