Why would anyone be surprised by an underground trading system happening on the internet. Hell there are sites that trade personal information for ID theft.
There are also sites/people that promote the trading of copy-righted material like Music and Videos, using P2P software trying to hide in plain site, but most people think that is an OK thing to do.

What makes it even crazier is the amount of information that is not viewable.
We browse on the surface where pages are indexed and searchable.
The deep web/hidden internet equals to about 500 times the amount of information to what is located on the surface.

They can't be followed as the bitcoins are electronically laundered countless times over cloaked networks using onion routing.

TOR networks were engineered for the US Navy and Government officials to allow invisible net communication.
