I don’t know if you are serious, but the idea that people have nothing to hide comes from Nazi Germany. Also, lgbtq+ people may need to hide from their family without being cut from communities, just to give an example.
How does that apply to someone using it to pay for VPN service? Who cares what other people are using it for.
Also, many of those “criminals” are using it to buy shit like HRT because they can’t get it where they live. Some others just want to get cheap cannabis gummies in states where it’s already legal.
You shouldn’t paint with such a broad brush.
USD is just as private, unless you’re tracking serial numbers on bills, and even then… It would be like saying you don’t use cash because it’s used by criminals. Makes no sense.

Do you have a better way of making anonymous digital payments?

That’s a profoundly pro tyranny statement
Okay now I know this is a troll
Such as what in this case? Definitely not power consumption if we’re talking about Monero.

because the buyer pays transaction fees and there is no risk of chargeback so their costs are inherently lower if you pay that way?

you think they’re criminals because they did a thing that’s not a crime?

like… not crime stuff…
Oh! You mean crypto currencies, not crypto. I was confused there for a bit. :D
