Bitcoin doesn't have to be sold for Fiat, it can be exchanged for goods or service.
Besides privacy doesn't mean full ghost, if you convert to Fiat nobody knew you had it before or where it came from.

If the merchants accept it, the government will likely know and regulate it.
Do you mean cash? you be private in digital, but you no longer private in real life.
