The North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA) survey showcased that 94% of state and provincial regulators thought there was a “high risk of fraud” in the cryptocurrency market.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

What else could they have said? Nothing because they themselves are thrilled by the amount of reruns that could turn out in a short period of time so also how quick that investment could turn to cents due to volatility so instead of outrightly say it's bad based on their findings even though the survey in which they are relying upon suggests, they prefer to sit on the fence of not saying it's outrightly bad or good just that invest with caution.

And I think its a conservative approach that we all have to know about by default in that "never put more than what you van afford to lose or won't make use of in a long period of time" just that they are supporting theirs with knowledge of facts and figures.

We have heard this all along and I'm sure by now investors know what they are doing. They know the risk and I'm sure that its one of the factor why they dig into crypto, high risk, high reward. I guess, we don't need to hear from regulators such statement because its becoming to sound like a broken record. Yes, its possible that there are fraud, or scam, we can't deny that, but for me if someone has been scammed, there's no one to blame by yourself. And we already know that you should only invest want you can afford so in case of something went wrong, you can still go on and learn your lessons in a expensive way. But I have to say that we need to thank them though for reminding us. Its really up to the individual if he wants to take the round and risk the money in investing in crypto.
