The difference is that we haven't spent a century building up police organizations, bureaucracies, processes and international working relationships to track down crypto crime the way we have for "normal" financial crimes.

You would track down this crypto in just about the same way you'd track down a fraudulently ordered wire transfer that was cashed out. Records would be requested, IP's and timestamps recorded, more records would be requested from other parties based on those, and so on and so on. The difference is that it's somebody's job to go after those. It's nobody's job to go after this.
