Am I missing something or is BM the kind of behavior that drives all seriousness away from this forum?
I truly identify with OP. Everyone else who feels otherwise, you're a walking advertisement for pro-regulation. You're basically saying to the powers that be, "Please step in and regulate us, we obviously can't help ourselves."
Cryptocurrency was in part necessitated by the fact that Wall Street and the surrounding bureaucracy sucks so very, very much. Nowadays the only remaining difference between crypto and Wall Street is regulation.
So you want regulation? By all means, keep it up, keep blabbing about how this is the real world because it is not. Its a pack of thieves committing crimes in broad daylight, waiting to be rounded up. Or at least taxed and fined.
Tax, well that's not a crime to take persons wealth from people by force is it.
