Even he scammed maybe more than 300k$ from 20-30 peoples.Though i have all kind of proof but i didn’t take any steps because crypto is illegal.I didn't take any steps.because police can arrest me for using bitcoin.

Scams happen no matter what, it's likely that they would have been able to scam someone else if crypto didn't exist and they would have gone about it another way. It's just the payment method, that is crypto-currency.
This ia nothing beneficial to the bitcoin. Using blockchain technology has nothing to do with bitcoin. Blockchain is just a technology. Many banks or others will use it sooner or later but legalism of bitcoin is something else. I don't know much about the cryptocurrency laws on bitcoin, but in general, it seems suncontinental people are having worse time with bitcoin.
It's true, but no country has yet condemned bitcoin but adopted blockchain technology, Bangladesh could try and risk it, I'm personally very interested in what happens.
