- antr 13y agoPlease, follow the conversation. We are talking about the SEC and users crying foul. Not the impact bitcoin will have today, or tomorrow.
- sneak 13y agoDoes it really matter which US-based regulatory body I'm dismissing as irrelevant? The long-term impact of Bitcoin is way bigger than any one country or culture.
- CodeCube 13y agoI'm actually really curious, how could the SEC (or any agency) take any action here? Sure, they can make rules that say you shouldn't trade bitcoins, or maybe even threaten fines ... but for someone who doesn't care to report their activity, is there any way to be "Stopped" from doing so?
