Oh no! I wonder if they'll shut down Mt. Gox's Dwolla account in the next couple months! I guess we'll find out!  |

These guidelines have nothing to do with Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not mentioned once. Bitcoin is neither "convertible" nor "virtual", nor does it "substitute for" "real" currencies. This publication is a hoax, designed to make you think that Bitcoin is subject to regulation. It is not.

the story is about banks restricting movement of FIAT. has nothing to do with restricting movement of bitcoin.
yet again bitcoin remains unaffected while governments try tightening the reigns on peoples abilities and choices involving how to spend fiat.

Actually you are quite mistaken about this. Bitcoin is CLEARLY a "value transfer system" which is HEAVILY regulated around the world. My prediction: 1) mt gox gets shut down 2) btc_e gets shut down 3) bitstamp gets shut down 4) fastcash4bitcoins.com gets shut down 5) coingator.com gets shut down Unless these exchanges (and all others) immediately cease and desist dealing with Americans I predict they get shut down in the next six months. People may end up in prison over this issue. Even filing now as an MSB is too late. These sites have ALL broken criminal laws within the USA.

Youve altered the link so that it looks like its going to the well known financial site Zerohedge.com, but your link actually goes to Zerohedge s.com You should get a scammer tag for that, IMO. |

I second the scammer tag. The altered link for "zerohedges" is a malware site.

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

I also think any site that doesn't AT LEAST reserve the non-plural name of their domain (or vice versa) is just asking for it.. |

Very unlikely, to make a link different you have to put effort in. Odds are OP was trying to scam. Here's how to create a legit link: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-03-21/us-begins-regulating-bitcoin-will-consider-virtual-transactions-money-laundering Here's what OP did: [url=http://www.zerohedges.com/news/2013-03-21/us-begins-regulating-bitcoin-will-consider-virtual-transactions-money-laundering]http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-03-21/us-begins-regulating-bitcoin-will-consider-virtual-transactions-money-laundering[/url] Notice how inside the tags there's the scam link. |

He copied and pasted the URL into the thread, then removed a letter "s" making the text into the address of a respected financial website. How can that be a typo? Get real. |

Bitcoin is CLEARLY a "value transfer system" which is HEAVILY regulated around the world. Bitcoin is not (and will not be) regulated whatsoever, by definition. My prediction:
1) mt gox gets shut down
2) btc_e gets shut down
3) bitstamp gets shut down
4) fastcash4bitcoins.com gets shut down
5) coingator.com gets shut down You forgot: 0) A fully decentralized anonymous secure global peer2peer exchange system will be realized soon, at which point the current exchanges become pretty much obsolete. Unless these exchanges (and all others) immediately cease and desist dealing with Americans I predict they get shut down in the next six months. Fortunately this does no longer hold with a decentralized P2P exchange infrastructure. There simply is nobody in particular to shut down, just like with Bitcoin itself People still seem to think that America somehow rules the world, or their law applies everywhere. No sir, information rules the world, and the US (together with other goverments) are rapidly losing their grip. As much as they'd want to, there is no putting the genie back in the bottle |

ACTUALLY the American banking laws are pretty similar to the Japanese banking laws and the European banking laws with regard to value transfer systems and money laundering so.... |
