The US Government Clamps Down on Ability of Americans To Purchase BitcoinYou have to feel sorry for Americans. They are some of the most financially enslaved people in the world.
The bankrupt US government has been instituting capital controls for years now and have ensured that Americans can’t open a bank account nor even a bitcoin exchange account outside of the US through things like the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) and just outright threatening to attack any bank or bitcoin exchange in the world who accepts Americans as clients.
This leaves Americans in the “land of the free” with very few options for bitcoin exchanges.
No exchange outside of the US will accept Americans as clients. They’ll accept North Koreans. Iranians. Russians. Chinese. Anyone… except for Americans.
And due to all the regulations in the fascist/socialist mixed US economy, it is incredibly hard to even operate a bitcoin exchange in the US.
