Wouldn’t it be possible to do this by exchanging that money for other cryptocurrencies and covering one’s tracks? Monero, perhaps? Or wouldn’t it be possible to cover one’s tracks by using CoinJoin as well??

I think your biggest enemy against any observer, passive or active, is still the "Shapeshift heuristic". And if you're a true criminal, I think that active subpoenaing and raiding of insecure services that cannot be coerced into cooperation, will truly make this difficult.

Not to mention complexity but that could in theory be overcome with really good software.
