Can bitcoin and regulation coexist?

in #bitcoin5 years ago

Recently I was invited to speak at the Center for Free Enterprise at the University of Louisville, and so I thought that it would be a great place for crypto attorney Sasha Hodder and myself to discuss the beginnings of bitcoin and the current regulatory environment. I see the framework of the discussion as Bitcoin vs Govt, and would love to know what you think of the issue!

Huge thank you to the Center for Free Enterprise for having us, we had such a wonderful time!

This video is a masterpiece! Thanks for sharing Naomi. Mass adoption.. soon :)

This video helps a lot of people get what Internet Money is like. That is a good way to put it, Internet Money or Arcade Tokens. You play video games at an arcade and win these tickets that you use to buy toys and prizes and food at the arcade, the store, and cryptocurrencies could be like that in some ways and it is an alternative to Rothschild, etc. I've written about this many times. That's why I'm sharing and liking this article, mostly because of this video. Thanks.

I think once governments fully understand the non-fungibility of blockchain they will grow to love it.
However that doesnt mean I am a privacy coin enthusiast, I think they will be outlawed for that very same reason in many jurisdictions, and if that happens they wont gain enough "man in the street adoption".

My bet is that the fight will begin to revolve around decentralized exchanges, once you can filter your transactions through several otherwise unconnected blockchains, then I think there is really going to be no way for any single entity to understand your wealth and dealings. I can pay my taxes in coin A, do my grocery shopping in coin B, receive my salary in coin C and so on.

Therefore maximalism is really going to be the death of crypto, if we arent careful.
