Someone close lost his bitcoin to some scammers who posed as an ICO project admin.
We have the wallet address but there's no way on planet earth to trace the fraudster offline.

Don't you think its high time , this is looked into.
There needs to be a way of linking account owners to their offline address .
This would mitigate in no small measure the prevalence of frauds.

That is very unlikely. But it is best to cooperate with reputable managers and that will help us to avoid fraud. Although salary is less than other projects, we need safety.

Linking anonymous wallet addresses to people's actual names defeats it's nature of being anonymous. Anyways, wallets are pretty secure and people lose money most of the time because of their own carelessness, like in this case. Just take it as a lesson so it won't happen again.

Yes its a very useful event for the future because there have been a lot of scammers in ICO who claim as a team and admin of the ICO project. So don't regret if something like that happens next time I am sure you will be more careful to choose an ICO project so that it wont happen again.
