Technically it has only passed the first stage of a three part series for it to actually become law.

This is quite interesting how the EU are doing it. They are making out as though they are just wanting to step in and regulate crowdfunding websites but if you dig a bit deeper it actually shows they want to regulate anything where finance is being raised. This would greatly change the face of Crypto EU wide.

Holding appears to be doing what the majority of people are doing hence why BitCoin tend to bounce back from any dips.

It is only when a majority sell up that an asset crashes permanently and this is not happening with Bit Coin.

You look at who is financing 'Ripple' one of there biggest investors is Google. Google is therefore going to push them.  I would guess when you have Google pusshing you you should do quite well.

Governments are now moving in to tax BitCoin. Coinbase just lost a case with the IRS and have been forced to hand over data on 13,000 users.

This will just be the start. With one judgement they can start to bring more of them against exchanges etc.

The Marshall Islands have just launched thier own crypto currency which makes it  a sovereign coin. Main problem I see is that the currency isnt anonymous which I think goes against everything that BitCoin stands for!

I doubt it will become a daily currency but blockchain is becoming a trading technology.

HSBC are now running a pilot using blockchain to power currency transactions. http://learnccrb.com/2018/03/hsbc-to-start-blockchain-payment-pilot/

You also have Credit Suisse who are using blockchain for securities transactions. http://learnccrb.com/2018/03/credit-suisse-and-dutch-bank-ing-complete-e25-million-blockchain-securities-trading/

This is only the start.

They may not be regulating it but they are bringing in legal process to access users data for tax purposes.

Millennials will decide the future of BitCoin and BlockChain as they are fine adopting them into their lives where as the older generation dont want to change.

If you look at statistics regarding adoption of BitCoin and Crypto you will see that Millenials are at 42% ready to use rate as opposed to over 65 who are at 15%. http://learnccrb.com/2018/02/millennials-building-a-crypto-future/

There is currently a courr case going on between two people (one deceased) who may have set up Bit Coin.

Number of quite important things have happened this week with Government involvement in Crypto Currency.

1) The Justice Department is now publicly talking about how they are drawing out a plan for crypto currencies. Read article here -> http://learnccrb.com/2018/02/justice-dept-developing-comprehensive-cryptocurrency-strategy/
2) Coin Base have just been forced to hand over 13,000 customers records to the IRS so that the people profiting from Crypto can be taxed. Read article here -> http://learnccrb.com/2018/02/coinbase-to-send-13000-users-data-to-the-irs/

I personally believe we are about to see massive government involvement with Crypto as it threatens the scam that is Fiat Currencies and Tax Revenue.
