Disingenuous comparisons such as this are to be expected when talking about cryptocurrency/blockchain, I suppose. People commit fraud with money, people commit fraud with cryptocurrency. New avenues for a historical misuse of money, without necessitating the misuse portion to be a player, of course that justifies equivocating an exchange with a drug cartel. Beyond that.. it is very clear that operating a drug cartel is strictly illegal. Operating a cryptocurrency exchange in 2023, it is not completely clear what the requirements are for it to be considered legal or otherwise. In other words, it would be nice to have a discussion about cryptocurrency that wasn't filled with inflammatory bias.
