Some illegal activity is considered a moral good.
Cryptocurrency is used for illegal activity.
Therefore, cryptocurrency is a moral good.
^ This is a classic logical fallacy called a false syllogism. The archetypal example is "All men are mortal. Socrates is mortal. Therefore, all men are Socrates."
I assure you that all cryptocurrency is neither a moral good, nor is it Socrates.
