Why do we still use bitcoin?

I'm no expert on cryptocurrency. Just the word makes ears perk at every government agency. I know there has to be other currencies with no block chain. Why won't there be amass exodus? LE is only getting better at tracking transactions.

Because it's internet money that if used correctly cannot be traced back to you.

Because people actually use BTCs for lots of legitimate things so there's something to blend the DMM use with.

Blockchain doesn't associate your identity to it, so it's perfectly anonymous. Tumble your coins, done, you're safe. No need for other currencies.

Also, how do you even make cryptocurrencies without a blockchain? I don't think there's any of them.

Tumble or buy with cash?

Yeah, it's pretty obvious. There's no way to answer your flawed question since you claim to "know" things that are incorrect. I'm really not trying to be a dick, but you need to brush up on what you think you "know" about cryptocurrencies. The blockchain along with cryptography is the whole point. They have to both work hand in hand for a cryptocurrency to deliver all the positive attributes that today's cryptocurrencies do.

If you want something that's better than cryptocurrencies, then you need to put on your thinking cap and invent it.

Sorry for the bad news.

Lots of platforms like LocalBitcoins are anonymous, since they have wallets with bitcoins from many accounts mixed together so your coins come out already tumbled.

Because slipping actual cash into my virtual wallet doesn't work.

Pretty sure we will see an increase in the amount of people using DASH over the next few years
