Crime. Why do most people steal? Because they want something that they can't afford. What does Bitcoin do to costs? It makes things cheaper.
There's not widespread agreement on why most people steal, but there's widespread agreement on why they don't steal, and the reason they don't steal is what you've just claimed. You're giving the same wrong folk wisdom as do people who think rapists are extra horny or their victims were dressed too sexy. Pick up an introductory book on the sociology of deviance if you want to actually learn about this topic.
I could go on and on.
Going on and on with facile explanations for complex issues is exactly what OP was trying to prevent. Your list is a masturbatory fantasy that demonstrates that you actually don't know a thing about any of the topics you're opining on; although I can hardly blame you, since this whole ecosystem is full of similar horseshit, and you can make a lengthy "career" as a talking head on btc podcasts preaching this same Good News.
I was about to delete this because it's me being an aggressive dick, but then I saw this comment of yours and figured you could take it.
"OP-Approved" 😉

Your're right. I worded that poorly and that's what I get for rushing while at work. What I meant was: [In my own experience with the criminals in my family and the ones they've associated with] people often steal because they need a saleable asset to make ends meet or just because they want some extra value.
Sure, there are those that do it for fun too. I'm not insinuating that Bitcoin eliminates all crime, but it definitely de-incentivizes some crime.
