Crackdowns by regulators make bitcoin unsuitable for pro investors and could pop the bubble, UBS said.
The bank pointed to China clamping down on mining, and the growing concern over crypto in the UK and US.
It also said the common practice of trading crypto with leverage is likely to draw regulators' attention.

"The Singapore-based exchange did not elaborate on why they decided to purge XRP. In its statement, BITBOX mentioned the main reasons why assets could get delisted from its exchange such as poor performance, lack of liquidity, and regulatory issues.

Some of BITBOX customers are already threatening to close their accounts with the exchange that ditched their favorite cryptocurrency.

On Bitcoin  - cannot agree more



ETH was ICO - doesn't work as promised and goes PoS - Vitalik controlled, is even more what a security defines ( Shares = right to min and earn dividends )

"Regulation and market surveillance

Of course, BSDEX meets the regulatory requirements. But we go further: Baden-Wuerttembergische Wertpapierboerse Gmbh, which also functions as the sponsoring company of the public stock exchange, regulates and monitors the compliance. Boerse Stuttgart Digital Exchange thus sets high standards in the trading of digital assets.

...

The future begins now

Bitcoin has disrupted the conventional banking and Stock exchange business and generated billions in value in shortest possible time. The underlying blockchain technology is revolutionizing the handling of assets along the value chain of the financial world. BSDEX sets high standards in transparency and security and offers a reliable framework to trade Bitcoin. In the future, trading in other digital assets will also be made available.

For me it shows a bitcoin chart for trading ..

The list of coins coming to the existence without any fraudulent ICO or selling prospects is very short.

World wide adoption and welcoming regulations will simply depend on each other. So SEC and others will close all such and these will go to zero soon.
