If there is no regulation we can protect ourselves from the threat of scams. By choosing projects carefully, analyze correctly. If a little is not right,
don't follow the project, don't give it a chance whit the scammers. Or more easily follow the projects held or sponsored by large exchanges like
Binance, Coinbase and Yobit, because these exchanges can help protect us. And the latter must be active on telegram channels and social media that discuss their projects, whether the team has a good track record or act. The point is to be extra careful in investing in new projects, protect your money from scammers.
No exchange can protect you from fraud, you decide where to invest and bear responsibility for it.
Regulation will come and this will be soon, i guess. And i dont sure that this will be good for crypto
On the one hand, regulation will be beneficial, but on the other, not. But in the future, cryptocurrencies will radically change the financial system.
