Being totally off of any laws does allow for way more freedom. This is a huge plus. But, a little while ago I was approached about rigging my lottery and splitting the winnings. (apparently they missed the part where it's impossible) I think the most interesting thing they said was:
and it wouldn't technically be so (referring to theft/fraud), because bitcoins don't have a worth recognized by the government so it would be equivalent to scamming someone of some gold in a MMRPG
-only remaining anonymous because I promised before the conversation expecting some type of business deal...
I didn't really think about that till then. The double edge sword of using the argument "it's not recognized by law anyway as currency". Because it's not recognized as currency by law emboldens some to try to steal. Regrettably this wild freedom also has it's cost. Probably more scammers and thieves.
Myself, I'd probably pick total freedom even with this cost. IMHO it's worth it.
edit: I just wish we could still have the freedom but still punish those who do steal
