You can run it on a FireTV stick by downloading termux via the F-Droid repository. Connect a bluetooth keyboard and you have a nice little linux environment to play around with. I installed archlinux on it and use it to test packages for AR

It's a problem if the source of funds are obtained illegally. Using tumblers is not illegal, but if using tumblers to make 'dirty' money appear clean then that's a problem.
