perhaps offtopic but IMF is definitely turning the eyes on cross-border transactions in crypto:

and what do you think about usage of altcoins in business-to-state relations, such as public procurement etc?

Americans are technically not allowed to contribute. Plus USA is not the only country on the planet. I guess there will be some pushback at some point. I don't see what governments could do.

I wonder how exactly the state will hold accountable the people behind the scam scheme - personally or in the name of the legal entity and whether reimbursement could be legally imposed before the asset dilutes. Otherwise what's the sense of even initiating such talks on a state level?...

as a follow up, another news piece worth paying attention to:
http://www.iflr.com/Article/3721543/Asian-regulators-differ-on-framework-for-bitcoin-operators.html  So, Japan is already creating regulatory hurdles for digital asset traders

https://news.bitcoin.com/russian-bankers-push-to-legalize-cryptocurrency/   something is as well stirring up in Russia though I doubt that "legalize" will mitigate the risk rather than multiply it

I agree with the previous posts about governments not being able to stop cryptocurrencies, but they can definitely make them harder to use in certain countries.

In the US, the SEC is making noise about regulating ICO's at some point: https://news.bitcoin.com/sec-eyes-initial-coin-offerings-for-regulatory-oversight/

Already more than one Altcoin company has said they won't offer coins to US citizens during the initial sale, because the legal implications aren't clear. For example: https://www.bitquence.com/global-remittance-and-transactions/bitquence-token-sale-not-available-in-the-u-s/

It will just take one really high-profile ICO scam to get the US regulatory authorities to act more strongly.

it's not the matter whether the Government should be at the driver's seat but rather how far the long arm of law could reach as regards misuse of cryptocurrencies
and enforcement of ICO-related obligations.

Government must not do everything for us, are we children? We need less government in our lives. The purpose of government have been abused by crooks. This forum is not supervised nor run by government yet it's functioning very well. I'd rather have software and robots run things than so called government.
Crypto is about to take over the World yet it's is not regulated by government but by softwares and smart stakeholders

Dont you guys think that introduction of specific regulations in the altcoin domain can become quite a reality for countries with generally authoritarian stance - Russia, China, some Latam states maybe?
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you trust CTENT? (content coin VR / AR) on: June 26, 2017, 09:18:19 PM
how is the idea of a VR token different from a string of other ones such as Po.Et which also rewards creators of unique content?..
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PSA: EOS Tokens have no purpose and are completely useless on: June 26, 2017, 08:46:16 PM
so you eventually refrained from participating in ICO?
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ICO] Primalbase: Distributed Workspace for Tech Community - June 26 on: June 26, 2017, 01:49:53 PM
+1 wanna know the answer to that as well

Will Primalbase be this year on a exchange or next year?
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ICO] Primalbase: Distributed Workspace for Tech Community - June 26 on: June 26, 2017, 07:12:41 AM
in the end, what's your thoughts on transparency of Primalbase? as I see opinions largely differ
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PSA: EOS Tokens have no purpose and are completely useless on: June 26, 2017, 06:02:28 AM
well on the second thought I guess you are right on that.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PSA: EOS Tokens have no purpose and are completely useless on: June 26, 2017, 12:21:35 AM
so what could be the worst-case scenario with EOS Tokens considering thus? does it mean the tokens can be devalued unilaterally?


Here is what the purchase agreement says:
https://eos.io/purchaseagreement/EOS%20Token%20Purchase%20Agreement%20-%20June%2022,%202017.pdf

16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about TenX ICO ? on: June 26, 2017, 12:11:58 AM
still interesting to see how , despite initial skepticism of the cryptocommunity, TenX managed to "overperform" on their ICO...The caption on their website even read "do not send more funds, the goal is reached"
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coins to buy before they hit the exchanges? on: June 25, 2017, 11:59:52 PM
A good alternative these days is the DENT project with their dentcoin which intends to disrupt the industry of mobile date, where users can buy or sell mobile data, from unused mobile data from others, in a peer to peer way of course.
thanks for the tip just noticed that their pre-sale is already tomorrow
