Selling illicit goods seems to have been transformed by Bitcoin.

  A bit of contentious point but I want to distinguish between bitcoin blockchain and blockchain tech. Even as a bitcion skeptic, its market cap went from $0 to $1T and you can't argue with that. But circa 2012 people started marketing blockchain as an independent technology that can solve all sort of problems. This is the bit I have issues with, there hasn't been a single successful use case sense.

  This can be a good thing. Just because a government prohibits something doesn't mean it is bad. (Yes, now we can devolve into a discussion about what "bad" means.)
