Seneca once said “A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials.” It is with this sentiment in mind that Bitcoin (and the cryptocurrency market as a whole riding along)  begins the process of fighting for it’s legal right to exist, or rather so, solidify it. Bitcoin’s enemies are legion: powerful United States Senators such as Chuck Schumer have made their total opposition to Bitcoin on principle all but stated (though he may sound ‘upbeat’ in the posted article below, the US government is anything but) , and most US Banks see BTC as a nominal threat.Thus, a new response. Bloomberg reports about the revitalized effort from pro-crypto lobbyists to push and ensure that crypto-currencies don’t get choked out by the likes of Schumer and company:
