Cryptographic scams refer to one or more ways to steal money from investors under false promises, they study the right way and the right time to take full advantage of the trust of inexperienced and greedy investors. These are produced in the ecosystem of any cryptographic network, they expose us to the danger of losing all our capital and not having access to it ever again in life, they are criminals without feelings who are thirsty to swindle anyone who falls into their deception, they can be divided into several types of deceptions taking advantage of the moment of euphoria of any asset or in any ecosystem.
I will give a clear example, the Token and the growth that this tube thanks to the Doge that emerged after a meme of a dog, this tube very successful since several celebrities managed to give a use to the token mentioned above and the great popularity of the celebrities of the moment as Elon Musk and several famous artists.
The plague of criminals managed to create other types of animal tokens with the aim that people buy their currency and these in turn could generate large profits with some strategy that would allow them to change the currency that had for the ecosystem to sell it and make profits next.
One of the biggest scams was in 2019 this happened in canada, an Exchange called QuadrigaCX disappears from the market leaving if 115,000 users in bankruptcy tas the death of its creator Gerald Cotten 30 years old. users reported that they could not access their account let alone their funds so this set off the alarms of all users, unfortunately it was too late . the total losses were 165 million euros of these 165million 120 million just disappeared.
The blooberg said that this Exchange used a wallet called Cold Wallets, wallets that were not connected to the internet . precisely to avoid theft according to investigations say that between 2014 and 2018 they came to manage in a cold wallet a total of 2,776 BTC although they say that the average was lower 124 BTC
Of these wallets, 14 wallets were identified in other exchanges, according to what was being used in the other cryptocurrency exchanges, which in itself there is a lot of mystery and this means a clear demonstration of fraud by the creators of this exchange.

3 Will regulations in Crypto add value to the Crypto space?
Actually the regulations in crypto are a bit complex, as in they are inhibiting many users to be able to enter the system, to be able to mine, and to be able to perform activities freely, governments for their part seek to centralize everything and take authoritarian positions in the ecosystem where it is from what I see and in my own opinion governments seek to regulate the assets of a decentralized and free system to try to centralize them this will never happen. we remember that the ecosystem is free and does not need a third party.
If we see the regularizations of China in terms of mining cryptocurrency what it did was, encourage fear of many users and allow them to sell their BTC, for much supply few buyers low price this caused the downward trend that we brought until a few days ago the BTC low value China had more than 51% of ls BTC in the world so they could boycott the emotional stability of the asset.
I in my way of expressing myself the regulation of cryptos is not good at all for the users who have our assets in the ecosystem. and for any person. but this will not doubt much I have always said that the BTC or Cryptos with like an uncontrollable wild horse that no one no government can control.
Although on the other hand the regulations of cryptos bring with them more security in the market at the time of any scam you know where you have to go to sue. so on that side you can be a little more calm.
Conclusion:
To be able to Understand the Big scams and not fall into them we must pay close attention to the projects , whatever advertising no matter that the most famous YouTubers of the network is announcing the project the real research will tell us if it is or not feasible, I recommend to search and make sure that they really are the developers of the project, its white sheet, its road map, that everything is being fulfilled to the fullest, that they have no mysteries, that the website has a professional job, the designs . that the coin is enlisted in some famous Exchange like Binance In addition to this investigate if the users are comfortable and feel good with the project.
If it is an Ico investigate who is its creator what projects have they done if they were ever pumped how are they now if they are successful or not, check the website is genuine all their social networks. how they write if they are professional or not. to be more sure do not bet all in one nest diversify your assets better to bet on several than bet on one and lose everything.
