Title: are there any self controlled trading/exchange platforms?
Post by: clementinal on August 14, 2014, 01:29:41 PM
Are there any controlled trading/exchange platforms out there?
As i understand there are no regulations that would ask for any regulation, but i have heard there are exchanges which are stated as "self regulatory". Could you point me in the right direction if im wrong?

Cheers!

I think all bitcoin exchanges and platforms are self regulatory :-)

Only in the US I think they are trying to push the regulations through to regulate bitcoin business. In other countries it is either assumed to fall under current regulations or is not regulated at all.

I can suggest https://www.bitfinex.com/ as a reputable but probably not regulated exchange.

I do not think they have the license to operate in US and Europe.

In general, Compliance with the United States laws and regulations is controlled, you know that although the United States laws and regulations may be imperfect, but there are very strict execution, so if any exchanges walks in it, I would trust the exchange.

For unlicensed exchange, the local customers may run into legal trouble if they keep sending and receiving money from a business deemed not legal abroad.
