This is another attempt to regulate the cryptocurrency market. You think that's good? Why would someone have to define the rules? I am sure that this decision will finally close the Japanese market for foreign exchanges. I'm expecting a big development of European offshore areas. They will be the engine of bitcoin economy development.

You can't expect governments from big countries not to try to create the regulation in this field. Specially since many people are not reporting their income and thus avoid tax. If they see the opportunity to accumulate more money why not. Some people are even septic until this field is regulated. But still they can't regulate it in depth

I think the attempt to regulate the cryptocurrency market is a good thing! The cryptocurrency market is in constant flux, regulators worldwide are grappling with ways to control trading, and traditional banking systems are far from isolated from the global phenomenon.

Regulators are not just concerned with the blurring lines between trades of traditional legal tender and cryptocurrency, but also the outpouring of investment into ICOs, alt coins, and funds away from IPOs and traditional investments.
