Personally, I'd rather see the FCA placing more of their attention on the idiots who keep losing peoples' card details (https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/06/13/dixons_carphone_breach/).  That affects a far greater number of ordinary people who are just going about their everyday lives than the relatively small numbers who fall victim to crypto scams.  Priorities much?
