Could you possibly face legal consequences for participating in fraudulent activities involving cryptocurrency? I'm genuinely curious about the legal implications of such actions. I've heard stories about people getting caught up in crypto scams and suffering severe consequences, but I'm not entirely sure how the legal system handles these cases. Could you elaborate on the potential risks and explain what measures are taken to combat crypto scams? I'm particularly interested in understanding the severity of the punishment for those found guilty of such crimes. Can you go to jail for crypto scamming?
