To purchase illegal stuff, I think you mean. The fact that cryptocurrency facilitates crime is not a selling point. At best, it's a necessary evil. At worst, it's a reason for cryptocurrency itself to be illegal.
No, I do not mean illegal stuff. While it makes it possible, no, I do not mean to purchase illegal stuff. It would make it just as good as cash. I just want digital cash instead of what we have now which is unecessarily trackable to the point that they know what you bought and then show you ads according to what you bought.
