Stop being so naive, this has nothing to do with money laundering.
It is all about controlling and spying on the ppl.
Every year banks money laundering Trillions of dollars and nobody is going to jail.
Get real already. Do some simple research on the internet.
None of the officials of the current and past government will ever go to jail, because practically at the legislative level, all their actions cannot be appealed and recognized as criminally punishable. This practice exists in all countries. But if we are talking specifically about the cryptocurrency, the cryptocurrency market and cryptocurrency users, then it is mostly ordinary citizens who are interested in government structures, because every government is eager to levy taxes on every citizen of its country. But an ordinary person can be punished in one way or another for illegal actions, and this the government will do anyway.
I'd never appreciated how the government and the authorities treated like this kind of illegalities. This is absolutely a crime and punishable by the law but things like this aren't proven yet committed by the one who does when there is a lack of supports, still be ignored. A lot of people doing this thing but they are still in the crowd, that is why many will do the same and doing this again and again...
