Anything that's related to profits and democratized will attract all kinds of characters. Democratization lowers the barrier and profits provide the incentive. The choice to corner cryptocurrencies and choose to see the shady characters in this combination is an artificial one based on what you can and choose to "see". The same shady characters are in finance, fund raising, and perhaps around your desk. They may be less obvious or you may be more tolerant towards the corporate backstabber, but they're still there.
