Feds arrest couple, seize $3.6B in hacked Bitcoin funds

Probably stupid question: Why not just exchange it to zcash or monero or some other coin that hides transaction details? Then you can send it to a new wallet; theoretically 100% untraceably.

Is this not a valid approach?

The transaction from BTC to Monero is traceable.
