There was a n interview with someone from Bitstamp about the regulation and they said it's not bad and they see it as something positive. They will not migrate of of the EU because of it.
I think it's not making it harder for exchanges, rather for clients who were used to operating with less KYC.
Exactly, I guess they don't care because 99% of the customers they have will complete the KYC without complaint if they haven't already done so, and they will be able to continue making money, which is what matters to them.
Personally, I think the regulation is aimed at making cryptocurrencies look less appealing when CBDC gets introduced. CBDC will be made so that it offers less limits and easier, faster access, so that on paper ot can compete with bitcoin, so it's important to impose limits on bitcoin first. It's all one big operation.
Probably.
The government never does anything to make your life easier.
Lol, how strange, one of my own on the forum. With the number of forum members who defend big government socialism, despite the contradiction it implies with the principles of bitcoin, I'm glad to find someone who thinks like me.
