Even then be wary. It takes an amazing person to stand up to the federal steamroller, when the tell you they will send you to prison, your entire family, and everyone you ever met. And your dog, cat & goldfish.
One more hacking problem? there have been dozens of bitcoin related hacks and bitcoin is fine. Bitcion itself has never been hacked. Bitcoin does have its own problems though, the size of the block chain being one I believe.
