Interesting side note on crypto:

> Early crypto liquidity came from ransomware. The existence of a pool of desperate, panicked companies and individuals whose data had been stolen by criminals created a baseline of crypto liquidity because they could only get their data back by trading real money for fake crypto money.

Is that even true, and if so, documented and quantified somewhere?
