I don't believe dealers are intentionally cutting fentanyl with cocaine. It's more likely a case of cross-contamination.
"National data show that a relatively low percentage of the cocaine tested by law enforcement contains fentanyl, although the mixture has become more common. Less than 1% of the cocaine samples tested by the Drug Enforcement Administration in 2016 contained synthetic opioids, according to figures provided to NPR; in 2020, it was up to 3.3%."
3.3% is a lot higher than I expected, though I wonder if there is a selection bias going on there.
