Crypto 101 | VIDEO: Just Released: Andreas Antonopoulous: Bitcoin Q&A: Could governments take over exchanges? (6 mins) - Super practical resource here today!! (Other videos inside post also)
Andreas M. Antonopoulos is an early pioneer, adopter & educator in the Bitcoin/Crypto space if you have not heard of him.
He routinely puts out some of the best information going. He speaks plainly and simply with some humour!
-- Andreas' Logo he uses for his branding, he is fun. That is the top of his head, looking down.
LOL.
He travels the world preaching the Bitcoin, Liberty, Crypto and Blockchain gospel and is one of the most well respected lecturers and teachers in the crypto world!
I always include a library of AA's videos in these posts, just like he does in every one of his YT channel videos. These are things for you to use, save, watch, share, and learn from if you have time now or come back to later if you wish. It's here to help you, with extra resources.

What prevents governments from taking control of exchanges, just as they have seized gold in the past?
They can take over centralised exchanges, but a significant number of people do not store their bitcoins on exchanges long-term (your keys, your money), so that would not enable them to control the network. They may come after people who they can see have bought bitcoin from exchanges, but that will just drive the entire economy underground.
Rather than simply buying bitcoin with your bank account, you will have to barter or offer services and be paid in bitcoin. Anywhere that bitcoin is banned, the spread will increase. Premium prices and smuggling.
Until the levels are equalized, the more it will continue to flow into a giant underground market. Foreign currency controls. Russian history. Bribery and corruption. Venezuela and India examples of Gresham's law. DEA agents stealing bitcoin from the Silk Road, Ross Ulbricht case. Making a mockery of the law.
If breaking the law is the difference between feeding your kids or watching them starve, no one gives a damn about the law and nothing will stop them. Let them go after the exchanges, because they're going to create exactly the premium that's going to drive an enormous black market.
"Black market" is just another word for 'unofficial' market.
This talk took place at the Silicon Valley Bitcoin meetup on April 11th 2017 at the Plug and Play Tech Center (@PlugandPlayTC) in Sunnyvale, California: https://www.meetup.com/Silicon-Valley...

Disclaimer: I am just a bot trying to be helpful.
Gotta explain btc to my missus father. Those vids might actually be helpful, thanks :)
They for sure will help!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I hope they do.
YW my friend, Steem On.
hahaha so I undersold it a wee bit :P
It depends on how you look at it.
Also on if you just want to execute the quicket trade possible or not.
I usually look at the market for the last few mins and hours very quickly on the candles.
Then usually place my sell order manually moving the LAST PRICE decimal up a bit to drive the price up a bit and help float the market.
If most people made that one simple adjustment, it would help keep the market elevated for everyone.
(:
Look at my other stuff out today, on that topic actually.
Not quite sure what your talking about ^^
I meant I undersold the value of your post :)
Oh LOL!!!!!!
I thought you meant crypto or trading hahahaha, funny stuff
