We can't blame crypto and blockchain technology

[OasisDre]

Every tools that was invented or will be invent in the future will be used wrongly,the point people are not getting is every successful invention can be used to do bad things,stop saying cryptocurrency scam is increasing and leaving banks hacks & scams out of it,cell phones & smartphones was build for humans to make communication easier for us but still scammers are using the tech to do terrible things like terrorist attacks,online romance scams etc,my point is no matter how good an  invention is bad people will use it for their own benefits.

The code (Blockchain and crypto) can't be blamed but the party that must be blamed is the user. I agree about that and so many parties are putting crypto as the main thing to be blamed but they forget the human was a party that can use it for good or bad things.

Every invented tech is dangerous only because of dangerous people, guns,swords,smartphones can be used to take life and at the same time they can be use to safe lives too,people kill people for money and other valuable things so till the end of time there will always be good and bad,this is why I dont take trump serious because he is not thinking straight

[sherenikaw]

The problem is not in crypto or blockchain technology so that we cannot blame them. But in the person, the team/people who do or use this technology for their benefit. Sometimes they are only focused on raising money, without thinking about the future of crypto or what the technology wants. Moreover, there are many scammers who often make people disappointed and afraid to invest in crypto or blockchain technology.

you have a point, and I now the media shifted every attention to cryptocurrency talking about the hacks and stolen money and the banks thinks it's good for them. No one talks about the scam in the banking system because they all cover it up

Scammers will always go where the money is, if cryptocurrencies are more popular and there are more crypto users every day, scammers will try to take advantage of it, adapting their tactics and targeting crypto holders, it's inevitable.

Yes. Every tool can be used in good or a bad way. But we are always improving on ourselves. And we sometimes have to compromise in order to get things in order. The friction between local governments and cryptocurrencies cannot continue indefinitely so we need to come to a mutually agreeable point.

I think no one blames the blockchain, or it is done by people who do not know enough about cryptocurrencies, we need to try to understand where a good project is and where it is scam.

[jossiel]

It's just hard to stop these people who are solely living their lives with that kind of purpose. They can adapt and use every single technology that has been made for good things but they are reversing the use it for their intention.

People that who doesn't understand what cryptos and blockchain technology really are will look and depend to those bad news that are being published by the media.

[shadowduck]

bad people and scams are present in all parts of our life, but the media simply underline cryptocurrency because its development is not profitable for modern financial instruments

The risk is the people who were trying to do some illegal works when there are some new they are using its weakness to make some money on it, the inventions are always there together with the dark side of the people who were trying to do illegal.

All depends on how you use it, any technology has positive and negative values, including cryptocurrency. We can use a lot of positive things, but if someone uses it for a crime I think it's not the fault of the technology. I respond with very positive thinking.

It may not be the fault of the gun if some mental nutjob shoots 100 people with it. However, the technological advance of the gun means it is actually possible for a nutjob to kill 100 people at once, whereas with a knife the damage would be far less. You can't expect a scorpion to not be a scorpion, and many people are just bad to their core so don't give them a gun or the financial equivalent.

I will never blame cryptocurrency and blockchain,
 we should be thankful to it as a new technology will change the world's currency.
Which FIAT can't give us even forever!

[jakelyson]

The problem is we started off at the wrong foot when bitcoin was used in the black market for drugs and illegal activities. That is the image retained to those who are not exposed to cryptocurrency and do not fully understand bitcoin or blockchain. And then scammers are rampant in cryptosphere. Bitcoin can be used in good and bad things but in here the bad side is the one always exposed to the public. It is just a matter of exposing the good side of bitcoin more.

[Zionatin]

This is so true. People murder others with tools. Tools are designed to perform work more easily. Sometimes one person murders another with a tool. Do we blame the tool? Bad tool!! Naughty tool??
This is just blame shifting and dodging responsibility. You can only blame humans. If you mess up you can't blame something else. People will blame everything else before themselves since most people cannot deal with being wrong because they're foolish.

[electronicash]

we can always weigh the advantages vs its disadvantages. blockchain being used by many companies today including the coming facebook libra, its clear now that it has offer more benefits. the government for now may see it as a thread but if they start using it soon, they will see its advantages too. but there's always the bad sides just like any stories, the negative sides of it like the scams makes it more interesting for the scambusters.

Scammer and corrupt people are in every sector not just cryptocurrency alone, every sectors including finance, health and banking sectors have seen hackers steal lots of funds and datas, It will be highly unreasonable to criticise cryptocurrency and blockchain technology for these acts.
