So they can all run their scams in countries that don't care? I mean, doesn't this just show that crypto startups are all about providing services to entities that, for various reasons, do not / cannot participate in the aboveground economy?
Like, what reputable, real company would have any problem existing inside the USA's jurisdiction? You could argue drug trade, which is supposedly a "victimless crime" (note: it isn't... depending on the drug, even "non-violent" drug use can fuck over a lot of people outside just the person who choses to take said drug (eg: meth, herion, oxy, etc...)). Anything else though, it is almost certainly a scammer scamming people. Why should above ground society tolerate people wanting to run ponzi schemes, people trying to cash out crypto-ransomware revenue, or people who want to deal in murder-for-hire?
