Bitcoin (and most other crypto) unintentionally strikes an interesting balance here.

That gives you freedom of payment, but after the fact you can still go after people laundering money or financing terrorism

Until the bank closes your account because it's deemed "high risk" and they're absolutely allowed to do that without explanations.
