So that they can unjustly enrich themselves at your expense without an excessive fear of civil penalties.  I am frankly surprised that I haven't heard of any actual scammer deaths by mob vigilantism, in crypto, lo these many years.  Wassup with that?  

I think it is pretty annoying that they would imply one thing but rely upon its opposite, yeah, but as long as it is fit for purpose I will use it as necessary.

However, it isn't actually necessary.  Elsewhere it was drawn to my attention that bitfinex xmrusd is actually doing a good tick these days, so I can just remove my market making operations to my u.k. company and be decoupled from btc entirely.  That's a far better solution, AFAICT.  

BTW, you've gotta love those U.K. LLPs.  Non-tax pass-thru for foreign earned income!  Mine is owned by a self-directed Roth.  Every penny earned is lawfully owned free and clear without tax liability by my Roth.  And U.K. means access to retail fx 100:1, and CFDs.
