Crypto companies were built for anonymous transfers of wealth. It's why they are perfect for money laundering and corruption. Venture backed companies are more difficult, since you would need a paper trail (equity, incorporation documents, beneficial owners, etc.)

It's not impossible, of course. It's not even terribly difficult, but it does require a different level of record.

(No, I'm not saying that the goons running the United States give a shit or won't do it anyway.)
