And still regulators prefer to focus on it being a criminal currency, and unstable one and even one bad for the environment. Doesn't this all sounds like very strong denials?
It's intentional the scam & fuddling claims, the old power structures don't want the competition this new platform entails & want to outright ban it if and when they can get away with it. They will hold it off for a few more years before they either accept it or form a formal dismissal as a threat to their power & control.
We already see the effects of some governments banning the usage because they lost control of the finance & taxes because of it.
Only those with stricter & more developed government platforms will allow it as a source of extra income as they can enforce the taxation of the networks.
