It is very important to design and implement crypto regulations thoughtfully, ensuring that they do not unduly restrict the evolution of the technology and compromise the principle of openness and decentralization of crypto, crypto regulations cannot completely prevent criminals from using cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. Criminals used other forms of cash finance and other traditional financial systems before the advent of crypto. Crypto can be used to create financial transactions of unknown origin and hide large amounts of money.
Crypto regulations can help prevent money laundering and illegal financial activity by requiring crypto exchanges to maintain KYC rules and coordinate with anti-money laundering agencies in detecting and preventing suspicious activity. Careful regulation and oversight can help prevent fraudulent activities, market manipulation, and crypto value inflation. This can ensure the stability and reliability of the cryptocurrency market, attracting sustained participation and investment.

However, in my opinion, criminals are more interested in using cash. Cryptocurrencies are characterized by the fact that they run on a blockchain. And, as you know, on a blockchain you can track all transactions, even if the transactions are mixed. Therefore, saying that cryptocurrencies are used by criminal structures and therefore they should be banned are words that should not be heeded
