Topic: EU = stupid - page 2. (Read 912 times)
Everyone is losing their minds over the fact the France is rising voices against the moment. The fact is France just suffered a massive terror attack and they're still deemed by the killings and terrorism. They might just get too carried away by the fact the terrorists use bitcoin and that's why they hate it. They don't really have anything against bitcoin it's just they're insecure if the attacks. Let the time pass by, they will join the moment.
Since this comes from three France-based members of the European Parliament this attitude is not surprising to me at all.The reason for this is the story that the terrorists who carried out attacks in Paris used Bitcoin.
I do not think that law will reach light. Europe has been a good place for Bitcoin lately, and have some hope in politicians getting informed first and then doing things.
That motion isn't going far, they didn't even took the time to make their case compelling.
oh they are from france, not surprise there, they probably relate it to terrorism, when euro is likely more used, their argument against are without doubt invalid
i hope their motion will never see the light
i hope their motion will never see the light
So, this is how it goes in the EU...
"Gee this Bitcoin stuff is complex and hard to understand... let's make it illegal"

What are they thinking? For what purpose would a politician think making illegal a remarkable new technology, for which most applications are completely unknown?
The very good news is no matter how hard the church or state has tried in the past to suppress science - they've always failed. I don't even think these laws even slow things down. Thank god our politicians are so powerless.
