Title: [2017-16-05] Japan eyes prize in regulating bitcoin
Post by: White sugar on May 17, 2017, 02:08:27 AM
Efforts to regulate the crypto currency by the Japanese may sharpen its appeal


   As speculative fever takes hold, cybercriminals taint the brand with ransom demands and prices whipsaw between record highs and cliff-edge stumbles, governments, investors and financial institutions are legitimately asking whether the world is ready for bitcoin.
   A thornier question — soon to be answered in Japan — is whether bitcoin is ready for “Mrs Watanabe”, the notional holder of the nation’s household purse-strings.

I still wonder how until now I remember not finished the work on the implementation and the creation of its crypto currency. Because their demand for bitcoin today is quite large and this also affects pricing in the currency market.

Same old story. Regulation is futile.
