Well, the world and technology are not going backward. I believe something new about crypto is going to come up in the future. Maybe it be regulations, legalizations or world-wide acceptance and whatever, I believe something good is going to come up.
Fully agreed with you, But bit tensed as @LeGaulois stated in below post.
Last week I stumbled upon a blog with an article titled "cryptography could become illegal in the future". I did only read the introduction because I thought it was probably a click bait.
Today after reading "Spies still butthurt they can't get at encrypted comms data Five Eyes to tech: We have ways of making you comply"
https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/31/five_eyes_2018_meeting_encryption_terrorist_content/Encryption is vital to the digital economy, a secure cyberspace and the protection of personal, commercial and government information. The five countries have no interest or intention to weaken encryption mechanisms. We recognise, however, that encryption, including end-to-end encryption, is also used in the conduct of terrorist and criminal activities
I started to think that they're crazy enough to really want to ban cryptography. (I like the "terrorist and criminal activities" excuse, you can use it for a lot of things)
I found that there is a regulation in my country about cryptography, looking to know how others countries consider the cryptography, to my surprise I found it's an industry regulated in a lot of countries, some even ban it...
In the name of the cybersecurity and using the fear, do you think cryptography could be an industry with regulations more strictly tightened.
I believe time is moving fast with the development rapidly. But there are group of people who are working hard to stop the acceptability and destroy the popularity of crypto industry. Because cryptos are making things easier than the traditional system through which they are making money. However, people are getting smart in recent time. They are grabbing the new days warmly. So hopefully, crypto will shine in future. Let's hope for the best and work together for better sustainability.
