  The way to include them is to make it legal and forbid the banks to not accept money from them, not to create alternative lawless universe.

    Lacking petulant restrictions isn't equivalent to lawlessness.

  How would a sex worker cash out their crypto if all major cryptocurrency exchanges do KYC?
