In five years from now, New York politicians are going to make some nice concessions - 'to attract bitcoin professionals'. They will say to each other: "Why did London set up 10 times more bitcoin business than New York?"
Here is the answer:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/03/18/us-britain-budget-digital-currencies-idUSKBN0ME1XD20150318Jack-booted arrogant asshole thugs who think they control the world like Ben Lawsky want to know everything about you - including what color your wife's underwear are - before they'll let you operate in their state. So everyone left.
Don't believe me? Just ask Andreas Antonopoulos who stated clearly in his MIT lecture: 'they already left NY'. Ben Lawsky will go down in history for triggering the avalanche that caused NY to lose the banking sector. This prediction probably seems somewhat '
over-the-top' today. I'll bet you a bitcoin it won't 10 years from now.
It is about time those Guido thieves in New York lose their stranglehold on people's money. Good riddance to them.
