Regulation to bitcoin is a proper way to operate for the entire module of bitcoin that's why many government wanting to regulate this because if we are all operated in our selves how gonna happen to the poor people uneducated that really needs the help of the government? Bitcoin is like a cash money in terms of public service to helping to people by collecting taxes from merchandise or any king of goods. that is also to bitcoin if ever it is a primary use it needs to have a good regulation for whatever deductible taxes in every transaction.
If bitcoin is continuously operated without proper regulation many poor people around doesn't benefited the good service of bitcoin.
In my opinion, the Government has the power to regulate bitcoin. In fact, the Government regulates bitcoin transactions in the Philippines. They regulate bitcoin transactions to avoid money laundering and fraud. They do that for the sake of their fellowmen who's into bitcoin.
