Bitcoin Must Be Seen for Money Laundering Potential, Finma Says

[salek11]

they still think that bitcoin is anonymous, and they disregard the comparison with cash everytime, which is even more dangerous

they should ban cash first before even attempting to restrict bicoin, if they were really coherent whit what they want

A Bitcoin is a popular digital medium of exchange known as a cryptocurrency. A cryptocurrency works just like regular money except that its value can’t be manipulated by the government. In other words, Bitcoin doesn’t have to listen to the man!

Maybe we have misread this? Could they be saying it "Must Be Seen for Money Laundering Potential" because they launder money and this has new potential? lol

Money laundering laws are another way of saying "we want to track everything you do with your money, if you don't comply you support terrorists".

Exactly how I see it, how it is. I will put myself out there I could not care less that it has a nice potential to launder paper lol In fact I will go as far to say It is a good thing, freedom comes in all shapes and forms and people should not pick and choose what suits them the most. I clean and hide a smaller amount of value threw bitcoin am I a bad person? Not as bad as the dirty bankers and their army of corrupted controlling everything.

They should positively encourage the use of Bitcoin - the privacy focused alternatives (Dash, Monero, etc) are way worse.

Why would anyone try to launder money using bitcoin? There is literally a paper trail of all their transactions.
