It's much worse than that. It's a huge enabler for ransomware and other crimes with a side serving of environmental impact.

This is a downside. But I don’t think it’s a crippling one. Tax and regulate the people proximate to it, and the system should net out.
It’s gambling. It should be regulated and taxed like gambling. It shouldn’t be banned, and academic exploration should be unfettered. But anyone making money off it should be monitored by the public and the law, and pay for that oversight.
