not only in the cryptocurrency crime in this world everything is increasing the crime rate so blaming the cryptocurrency only for the crimes will not give any solution for that so I think we need to make the clear decision before what we do this only makes everyone to be clear minded in the future.
if you look broadly, crime happens every day, even fraud outside crypto. when a security is not so tight, there will be an increase in crime, and it happens in all fields. in terms of cryptocurrency, I think indeed some fraudsters involve crypto for their crimes, but, having experience and information, can make us avoid it.
Experience also cannot help us completely avoid mischievous criminals in this area but it is probably enough to avoid the basic situations, the traps that criminals create, and even if the number of crimes increases in crypto, we still should not think this is too bad news, consider a better aspect, the development of crypto has become so prominent in front of people. Sooner or later, when the crime story spreads, the market will get new capital, and maybe we already know we don't have the wrong choice, we've gone earlier than many people
