Makes you wonder why Tor doesn't replicate this and send the nodes ghost traffic, poison pills, block the IPs, etc.

People are communicating with bitcoin wallets without end-to-end encryption?

There is automated tooling out there that is used to detect misbehaving exits, like ExitMap: https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/phw/exitmap.git/
