It's true that libertarians are really fans of crypto-currencies. To be honest, as long as you trust a government, banks can be trusted with your money, especially since the government regulate banks since the government doesn't regulate crypto-currencies (yet). Libertarian when you profit from crypto-currencies, until somebody steal you bitcoin wallet or until bitcoin crashes again. Then you're pretty happy to still use an insured bank account. I would not be surprised to see bitcoin being used to launder money. All you would have to do is to sell a pile of dirty cash online against bitcoins, and send those dollar bill by the mail. I'm sure somebody already thought about that and is doing it already. To be honest I would not understand why bitcoin is so high right now, a logical explanation would be drug money.
