Virus Attacks on institutions on the rise.... I wonder WHY?

Turned on tv and they are SO alarmed by computer attacks,
I think of it as an abstract attack - like someone just pushed my
dental appointment back a day? who is worried by this?
As soon as the news reader started talking - i thought these bastards
will want the ransom paid in BITCOIN.  and ten seconds later it was confirmed.

So the solution is - KILL BITCOIN. oh don't do that?
What? It didn't exist a few years ago we don't need a digital currency
that promotes ANONYMITY in crimes.
This promotes KIDNAPPING, the crooks don't need to show up anymore
for the cash. DESTROY BITCOIN.  flatline this crap before it gets bigger.
