The U.S. state of Illinois is currently weighing legislation which will allow residents to use cryptocurrencies to pay taxes. House Bill 5335, or the Revenue Cryptocurrency Bill, was introduced by Rep. Michael J.

The department then credits the taxpayer’s account with whatever

Bitcoin Enthusiasm Tanked; Google Searches and Trading Volume Sink
Via Siraj Sarwar Wed Mar 07 18:55:37 GMT 2018
This week didn’t start off on the high for Bitcoin price (BTC) and its future fundamentals; BTC price is steadily moving downhill after hitting $11,500 during the weekend and in early trading on Monday. The downward trend was due to lower volume – which is a frustrating sign for bulls. Bitcoin prices lost close to $1,000 from its Monday high, the price of bitcoin token was around $10,594 today. It seems that bulls are losing their grip on the crypto markets after the ruthless response from major regulators of European countries and the United Kingdom.
