How many of those stolen cards actually successfully had charges placed and how many had charge backs? It's a false equivalence. Credit card rings have been busted. How many cryptocurrency thieves have been successfully prosecuted? How often are victims returned their money vs credit card theft?

From quick googling: http://www.statisticbrain.com/credit-card-fraud-statistics/ - and these are just Americans.

You really think these numbers are comparable with cryptocurrencies whatsoever?
