Crypto is not illegal. You just have to pay taxes on it, and exchanges might ask you to explain where the money came from.
I'm surprised nobody created a bank/exchange to take advantage of the situation.

Weed revenue is federally illegal. I think that's ridiculous, but buying crypto with that money in order to buy clean money is still considered money laundering under federal law.
