Is there any information how heists, thefts, hacks, and scams have been avoided, fought or resolved?
A list of violations this long doesn't help entice the new user to the Bitcoin system. (Of course the list of violations in cash is endless...so likely will bitcoin.)
I think it's a dual-edged sword.
On one hand, you're showing potential users the dangers. You're teaching them ahead of time what there is to lose, so they're aware of the implications of using Bitcoin.
On the other, you're right: it puts out the message that Bitcoin is nothing but a scam (which is what I hear non-stop from outsiders I speak to about cryptos).
The only way to fight this is centralization/government interference, which is what Bitcoin tries to steer away from. Essentially, these scammers are screwing over the entire community (including themselves) to get a few extra dollars.
