thanks for sharing, I forgot about this case but was interested in it. My take though, if you come into a coffee shop to do a live sale, and someone goes, "I would like to buy some bitcoin," than you'd be like "OK great!" But if someone says "I would like to buy some Bitcoin to go this illegal stuff" you would think most people would say "see ya." I bet this is what the prosecutors were going after, not so much the currency itself (whether bitcoin or cash) but the conspiracy to be involved with a crime.
