On the kyc issue, it is true kyc is part of a system of control and an abomination and its constant leaking is an ever present and growing threat to everyone everywhere.
Leaving aside it is possible to acquire non-kyc bitcoin, important to recognise this issue applies even more so to all other stores of value reasonably available, certainly fiat. So I am not sure I understand your point of how bitcoin makes this worse?
On the tainted coins issue, again while this is a serious issue, it also applies to fiat and other mediums of exchange. With bitcoin they can't stop you receiving transfers without permission, while with fiat it is increasingly necessary to prove the exact source of funds, down to invoices, contracts and communications, etc before banks permit you to receive them - data which is far more dangerous when inevitably leaked It is also unclear to me how you think bitcoin makes this deteriorating situation worse?
Genuine questions.
