I personally can't tell the difference between any given cryptocurrency and a gold brick scam in the first place. It's not to say you're wrong, but to me the fix is regulating cryptocurrencies, not complaining that someone outsmarted an algorithm that controls millions of dollars of tokens in an unregulated market.
Further, should the government step in and prosecute crimes in said unregulated market? Who's to say what a crime is or whether it's just a feature of the software? If crypto currency is nothing but a gold brick scam, why should they exactly?
> Sure you can. Michelle Carter[0] just digitally transmitted some prime numbers.
So Michelle Carter transmitted 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 ....? I don't think that's what she was convicted of.
But at the same point it seems weird that solving math problems online would somehow be made illegal. Now using said math problems to achieve ill gotten gains from a bank, would clearly be.
