YAY!
we will see what the future brings.
Who will have more influence swiss or china?!
Chine already bought down it to this level... I don't think it'll cause a big dip in price any further may be 300 but not below that but if some good news comes out bitcoin will recover to some extent..! Who will have more influence swiss or china?!

This qualification as foreigner currency or the german one of private currency are the only ones that make some sense.
So it basically mean allowing Swiss Banks mantaining Bitcoin accounts as a next currency ? It could open Bitcoin to fractional reserve banking 
but also 100K euro equivalent Bitcoin protection if the bank falls

so basically your telling me they don't yet know what is good for them, heh. jk
Swiss are not up to an innovation when it comes to money. They like their money where it was hundreds of years, in banks.
some good news if you ask me. Something like this could get some attention of potential Swiss investors for sure. I'd like very much to see many BTC ATM's all over Switzerland.
the only people in Switzerland who know about bitcoin are “geeks, criminals and special police units” and that there is currently very little or no public discussion about digital currency.
Insanely expensive country. You better bring your bitcoin riches. 10% of Swiss are AT LEAST Millionaires.
yep, already posted in the press section. would be a clever step for a country like swiss!
I hope they will not buy it all ;p
They can't seize it, so if they are willing to buy massive amounts on the free market, that is ok by me!

"The Swiss Parliament is considering a postulate that asks for bitcoin to be treated as any other foreign currency. The goal of the postulate, introduced by representative Thomas Weibel, is to eliminate ambiguities and increase legal certainty related to bitcoin."
