P2P exchange, huh ? Sounds good, I´ve been a decade in the torrents and that unregulated system has always worked like a charm for me. If this is along similar lines and on the way I feel much better about bitcoin already
In any event; what is most important in marketplaces is
a level playing field for the market participants. If the marketplace system is designed such that it actively attracts criminals and scamsters, this soon destroys all trust and confidence. Criminals just have an unfair advantage over those who want to conduct their business in an honest and fair manner. So, the primary purpose of regulation and law enforcement is to level this playing field.
Now; when you have this bitcoin which clearly is a threat to the present monetary system and therefore also to politicians (the government that puts in place this regulation and law enforcement that at least tries to level this playing field in real markets here on planet earth) that are funded into office by said financial system and other corporate interests
well then you can´t really be awfully surprised that the bitcoin marketplace has this insane self-destructive urge.
Right ? It plays right into the hands of those it threatens. It´s the sorry truth, I´m afraid. Those behind the system are a mix of useful idiots, retarded libertarians, anti-government kooks of diverse flavors, anti-fiat cultists and government/corporate agents.
