When you get proper money you can prove it's not proceeds of crime by showing invoices, business relationship, contract etc.
With bitcoin it's not possible since you don't know who really sold it, unless you "mined" it yourself and then sold, but how to prove money don't come from money launderers?

Bitcoin is very public, and very secure at the same time.
Full visibility of every transaction is very public. Who has the private key for each wallet is very private.
The exposure comes when the wallet on an exchange, or other known entity, who can be subpoenaed, is transacted with.See You Next TuesdayComment
