Crypto scams aren't a problem unique to crypto. There are plenty of fiat scams, too.

There is a big difference between nearly 100% scam, and something like 1% scam. And most of the scames happening with non-crypto are not exclusive to the currency, they would happen with crypto too, if it had wider usage.

The spam email and phone calls I get are nearly 100% scam.
