Because of the semi-anonymous nature of Bitcoin, it’s used in ransomware attacks. Hackers breach networks and hold them hostage until payment is made to them. Hospitals and schools have been victims of these types of attacks. However, unlike cash, which was favored by thieves in the past, Bitcoin always leaves a trail in the blockchain that investigators can follow.

This is a confidential issue and before putting this kind of matter you must have a proof or some links about that illegal used of bitcoin and how this establishment's being victimized of this hackers or scammers

But this will be a isolated cases and not happening daily ,because it seems like i have not encountered here in forum that even hospital become a victim
