There's a world of difference between "used for" and "designed to facilitate."

For instance, if USD had features designed to make life easier for counterfeiters, money launderers, and other kinds of financial criminals we would probably say that it has been designed for fundamentally the wrong ends.

Wait how do those arguments apply to crypto, it's literally uncounterfeitable and isn't easy to launder since the blockchain is public. Cash on the other hand is a criminals dream.

At least it's actually useful and beneficial.
