Some countries demand KYC and AML compliance for financial affairs, every time we deal with company or business relate to bank.
The surge in interest for bitcoin meant many cryptocurrency exchanges require customers to comply with it.
But it doesn't meant government will legitimate cryptocurrency as conventional means of payment, it just help government to control money flows and counter illegal transactions, at least it is a step towards positive acceptance.
Exactly my point. At the end of the day, we should make sure that anything that can be used by bad guys should be compliant or regulated enough to protect the people. In the end it is for the people I believe but do fill out that poll so you guys can get a better idea regarding how many people support this.
