Wow this article is really great and made me understand a lot, there are so many exchanges that I have never even heard about that existed, like that of Japan, this is the first time that I would be hearing of such exchange and also arrest of some of the suspects, so it is not as if the government is not doing anything about the stolen funds as we think, they are actually still regulating the industry too in their own little way.
All we just need is full regulation, so that the rate of the arrest can increase, at least with this, the cryptocurrency market will gradual get cleaned of scammers and will be safe place for investors again. Those fund that has been recorded, have they been recovered, and if yes, will they be returning it back to investors or that is going into government purse because if it does, it still would not change anything then.
I agree that we need some sort of regulations but I believe having companies like Ciphertrace could be even more beneficial to bridge government regulators and the crypto community. We want to be sure we are preserving the ultimate goal of crypto
