He was made an example of. All the serious exchanges who have investors will now be in fear of going to jail if they don't ban their customers for being linked to potential criminal activity or are in danger of regulatory contraventions.
The only solution is to create a way for exchanges and customers to be legally complaint whilst also being able to stand up in a criminal court and deny knowledge of being connected to wrongdoing. The same way that a $100 can be used to buy drugs, guns, and then nappies and be banked by a store owner who does not then face criminal prosecution for being part of a criminal chain of events.
My guess is that 2015 will be the proper start of privacy focus in crypto.
Thanks, coins101, for giving me some new ammo!
