Gents:
Congress submits bill making it illegal to hold cash, Bitcoin, or other assets outside of a bank without informing them in writing' .... https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1241/text#toc-idea0e9489fc8f46379f95bb56c8bbbda5 (https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1241/text#toc-idea0e9489fc8f46379f95bb56c8bbbda5)

How much do you want to bet that this bill was written by "established banking" lobbyists....I think it's obvious!

Clickbait? LOL - your missing the point - (plus I doubt www.congress.gov (http://www.congress.gov) is sitting around creating clickbait :)

The point IMHO is that the Established Banking Lobbyist are trying hard to get the United States Congress to pass bills that continue to reflect a negative stereotype relating to the Bitcoin/Cryptocurrency industry......Bitcoin and Blockchain have nothing to do with "Bank Secrecy Act Regulations" - That's the point of my posting - NOT to have people click on the US Congress website link.
