It's a desperate attempt to prevent people from hedging their shitty fiat currency that only makes them lose out as time goes by. This once again shows that converting a decent chunk of your wealth to Bitcoin is the only way to move forward. If people did that, they wouldn't be that much affected by these measures right now. People always need to go through these situations in order to wake up -- acting in advance of the happening is what everyone should aim for. Currently, almost 40% of my wealth consists of Bitcoin, and as time goes by, fiat will eventually account for a very small percentage only due to how the price keeps going up....
