The laws of Argentina do not matters to us in the US: if some company wants actual dollar bills to distribute them in South America, can prove the source of their funds is trading crypto, and pays for that service, who are we to tell them "no, that's bad, I won't do business with you".
It's a good thing for everyone - including the people in Argentina who get to enjoy the Blue Dollar by receiving more from the remittance.
BTW It's quite frightening to see replies likes yours. Most people here on HN seems to have a blind admiration for governments and laws, with about 0 critical thinking abilities when it comes to policies that are ultimately harmful (for ex, based on what I read here about Wise etc, I'd summarize the default HN position to "let's make our apps obey currency control laws in Argentina, even if it further impoverishes the locals!") until they are ultimately proved pointless (ex: turning back Australia into a prison island to control a virus as contagious as the smallpox... yeah not gonna work, but thanks for demonstrating that)
I'm admittedly very uninformed when it comes to Argentina, but the point is that tracking down the entity that is paying cash for coins cannot be that difficult. Even the most inept governments in the world typically become very efficient when it comes to money.
