they said that they are only monitoring the situation, they ar enot regulating it yet

yes, but how much longer will they continue "ignoring" it? we can be 100% sure that when the times comes, they will try to... what will happen?, in the end, people who already used it have lot of power, so its depends about what will do people who are using it Wink

( at least i like to think so xD )

the more popular bitcoin gets, the heavier their policy towards bitcoin will be. i think it's just a matter of time before we see some strict rules that will make it harder to freely purchase bitcoin from exchanges as their bank accounts are under heavy pressure already. there are banks already telling them to move their funds away from that bank as their account will get closed. it's pure madness.

I don't think so. I it become popular enough, they will want their slice of the pie. Taxes will fall on us, mainly when you'll buy bitcoins from exchanges, but hopefully, when it will happen, I will have enough bitcoins Cool

I really hope that they don't because that will make the price of Bitcoin fall rapidly.

I certainly hope that they do not take New York as an example, but I think this might all be fairly positive in general for Bitcoin to see it being accepted as a currency.
Looking forward to hearing the outcome if this.

I hope there will be no regulation on Bitcoin and crypto currencies in general. Regulation means more taxes being imposed on us.

Sooner or later we will see some regulation.Question is how much they will try to regulate it.If they do too much, like in New York, the innovative companies will look for new residences.The UK is way ahead and knows this I would say.They want to be a fintech hub, crypto currencies and Blockchain included.I doubt we will see another red flag act.So don't worry too much.

Even if regulation could bring us a lot more respect and consideration, this is indeed that taxes will follow it Undecided

... So a regulation may not be a good thing.

I think their might be a slight change by their announcement next month but I doubt it will be something that affects majority of users in Europe (hopefully) plus they seem a lot more reasonable into coming into a conclusion so it could still go either way.
