There is but it isn't pretty and the utility was found years ago. It is amazing for online black markets and monetizing organization's weak security through ransomware. Cryptocurrencies are extremely well made for moving value online without limit opportunities for government intervention. People have been trying to jam that square peg in endless number of more socially acceptable round holes and, unsurprisingly, it doesn't work out well.

Crypto is a blessing because it allows people to move value freely, but a curse in that it forces us to really come to terms with the fact that selective oppression (i.e. you can't use a credit card to pay for a hitman) actually helps us live higher quality lives.
