Oh, I think I understand your point, but we do have different definitions of what a scam is.

For me, if the guys getting fucked are capitalists or huge investing firms that were trying to leverage their money to make more money just from speculation and not being actually involved, that's not a scam, that justice. Economic bubbles happen because big money guys are trying to gamble the system to start with, so karma.

In the other hand, crypto scams are more close to a conman selling snake oil to the uneducated masses, that for me is a full fledged scam.
