It's OK, all is fine. Darwin at work. Whoever owns BTC and can fall for this scam is not worthy of owning (keys of) BTC.
100% agreed!
That's why I agree with cAPSLOCK's stance on banks. Whether we like it or not, banks are necessary, to take care of those incapable of being their own bank.
Not necessarily. As you said, Darwin at work. Sooner or later, will prevail only those capable to be their own bank.
So Bitcoin is only going to be used by those who are worthy to use it?
I seriously doubt that.

What boggles my mind is that those who fell for the ruse were already holding some bitcoin so they must have an idea how it works. What are they thinking?? Maybe, maybe, maybe...
The scam should at least include one of these in the transaction so people wouldn't feel totally scammed.
Edit: I know you all want one now.

Damn you bastards for getting me back into Lightning again.
Thinking of throwing yet more coin in and building out the node out to properly and respectably rep this fruity thread... In the top 500 for capacity already
This Umbrel stuff is kinda neato.

hopefully the scammers didn't get away with too much $$$
From what I've read, it's at least 0.4BTC...

I do agree with the Darwin bit.
The scam however has nothing to do with the banking aspect , but everything to do with stupidity.
Regardless of whether Bitcoin was in the custody of a bank or their own wallet, the fools falling for the scam would still have sent their Bitcoin.
The advent of hardware wallets and their ease of use, means even the least technological capable folk can secure their Bitcoin.
It is likely the scammers sent some of their own money to that address to make it appear more legit, so possibly nobody lost any Bitcoin. But I would not count on it. Free money who could resist!

Back then, it was almost embarrassing explaining Bitcoin to people because they would think you were a lunatic half the time..
Lunatic would be quite ok actually. Most of the time they'd think you were a scammer trying to lure more people into their dirty pyramid scheme...

These late night thoughts hit hard sometimes and who have sold out at panicking might getting face washed twice or thrice to check once again the prices.
Panic seller - I am out of market at right time and prices are not going to recover
Btc and holder - Shut up and hold my beer son

Seems bitcoin.org has been hacked
https://twitter.com/vxunderground/status/1440875093593231360?s=09
uBlock Origin stopped the popup on my PC but when I gave permission it definitely came up so can confirm it's there
Update, bitcoin.org has been shut down now. The DNS Cloudflare was hacked https://twitter.com/CobraBitcoin/status/1440912752151867397?s=19https://twitter.com/vxunderground/status/1440875093593231360?s=09
uBlock Origin stopped the popup on my PC but when I gave permission it definitely came up so can confirm it's there
Unlike bitcoin.org using DNS Cloudflare, Bitcoin isn't and remain the true decentralized.
Good news; hopefully the scammers didn't get away with too much $$$
