Could you elaborate on the potential correlation between the rise in cryptocurrencies and an increase in criminal activities? Some argue that the anonymity and decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies have facilitated illicit transactions, while others contend that it's merely a convenient payment method. How significant is this alleged link, and what are the key factors driving this perceived increase in crime? Do we have any empirical evidence to support this claim, or is it more of a societal perception? It would be valuable to gain a deeper understanding of the intricacies surrounding this issue.
