Topic: EU proposes stricter rules on Bitcoin - page 4. (Read 2355 times)

Nothing new on exchanges, at least the ones I've used are already applying KYC/AML directives, and doesn't seem to change much with prepaid cards, VISA lobby is still too strong...

Their actions can't stop terrorism at all, they need to do something better.
Regulation such as this only can stop regular criminal activity.

Also, there are still many ways to buy bitcoin without reveal much private information.

I think that with the refugees and UK leaving the UE, they have greater problems to deal with. Probably this will not be a big issue for the time being...

You want to know how? Don't be a part of the EU and let every country do its own thing. They want free movement? Let the country decide by their elected officials and make deals with other countries' elected officials. Want free movement of workers and easy passport movement? Give the countries the ability to decide which countries they want to let that happen with.

The EU is a terrible project that dissolves the culture of each country under its name, and gives power to unelected individuals that listen to a few countries and primarily push off the rest. If countries collapse because they're shit at running themselves, let them collapse and then buy up shit within the country and make money off of it. The trade deals with these countries that sit in a collapse-limbo just makes the recession worse, and it would be more profitable to let the country collapse, fix itself, and then stop propping it up and getting good trade deals.

The EU is not a benefit at all, and only flexes more control over the entirety of Europe for a specific group of people. Free worker movement (and subsequently relative open borders) and less tariffs on trade can easily be implemented by two separate states, the question becomes whether or not they want it. There is no one-size fits all solution, like the Union is trying to push.

Wondering what people make of this?

How can we keep the elites noses out of our financial affairs?
