Regulation will be a good thing in the long run. It will build trust for the industry among the masses thereby resulting in mass adoption. With regulation, people will feel more comfortable and have a sense of security to invest in crypto.
I don't believe that regulation means we have to declare our portfolio. Just as nobody cares to know exactly how much you own in the bank.
Regulation will also help in curbing the possibility of using crypto to launder money and place a check and balance in ICO which will make it very difficult for scam ICOs to operate.
I say regulation will in the end be a good thing for crypto..
What's your view about it?
I agree. In a world where the power truly resides in the governments, regulation is the best deal there is. At the end of the day, there has to be a way to make sure that freedom is used along the lines of what is good and right. Bitcoin boasts of freedom. But then it cannot be used totally free that even the hackers, frauds, launderers, terrorists, and other crooks could get away from the law. There has to be some form of regulation.
