The whole cybersecurity industry as it exists today is thanks to #Bitcoin. Before companies started getting ransomwared they didn’t care much about IT security at all - Bitcoin allowed the bad guys a way to get paid remotely without going through surveilled fiat routes (can’t ransom someone’s data and give them bank details to transfer to) which forced companies to take security more seriously and invest in better technologies and processes to protect their data and their customers.

Bitcoin was the forcing factor for that entire industry.

Don’t think there’s many black hats out there demanding ransom in SOL..
