Is a hacked cryptocurrency a crime?
Could you please elaborate on the complexity of the question, "Is a hacked cryptocurrency a crime?" Given the dynamic nature of cryptocurrency transactions and the often anonymous nature of the actors involved, does a simple hack automatically constitute a criminal offense? What legal frameworks need to be considered? Are there varying degrees of culpability based on the intent and actions of the hacker? Additionally, how are cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets responsible for securing their users' funds? Do they share any liability in the event of a hack? Finally, what measures should individuals take to protect their own cryptocurrencies from potential hacks?
