They did it to firearms, soda, and other fun things. New York doesn't like fun things.

New York (along with America) in general has been more and more receptive to bitcoin and see's the potential it has in things like tax revenues, job creations, etc etc. They may decide to apply traditional financial laws to bitcoin so companies have some clear guidence on what rules to follow, but I personally don't expect them to clamp down on bitcoin too harshly.
