Are you honestly saying that crypto currencies are so fragile that the mere knowledge of a token identifier is enough to frame the owner for a crime?

If so, that's just further evidence of how ridiculous the entire crypto currency concept is.

It's also kind of amusing that the very mechanism that would supposedly protect you from the extortion is the same mechanism that would allow the criminals to cover their tracks after stealing your crypto.
