I don't think the internet has left phase 2 yet either.

  You're getting downvoted for that, but you aren't wrong. There aren't fewer grifters on the internet. There are just more regular people. And also more grifters, but they can hide in the rest of the noise. It's going to be the same with cryptocurrency if it sticks around. There will always be people trying to trick less-wise people into giving up their money for nothing.

  If the internet is stuck on phase 2 then telephones are still stuck on phase 2 as well, there's still plenty of phone scams through calls/SMS.

    Telephones managed to regress from 3) to 2), in part due to the ease of automating phone scams over computer networks.
