Without even watching this video (I will when I get a chance away from work), it is hardy the end of anything. The investigation is just that, they have created no new laws or pushing to limit what Bitcoin can do, though I have no doubt once they realize that Bitcoin is a direct competitor to Federal Reserve ponzi-banking they will do everything in their power to kill it off. They don't want us to use something they dont control in the slightest, as I imagine doing legitimate and fair business in an open field of battle is appalling to them.
But they can do this no more than they did to BitTorrent, which in the end after millions of dollars were burned on legal suits, resulted in nothing.
Even if they did kill Bitcoin dead somehow, there are about 40 other blockchains out there to take its place. They simply cannot regulate it all, much less control because unlike fiat no one owns the Bitcoin network. Bitcoin is the antithesis of money control, designed to deflect such regulation.

Fuck FOX News. They ruined my country. Then again, without FOX News, I might not have moved to Canada and become a part of the Bitcoin movement, here.  |

That was surprisingly positive and accurate, relatively speaking.

Oh, really? Wow, I guess I judged them too soon. I didn't even bother to watch it. |

Or that the he thinks through mining on your desktop you will receive 50 BTC. They are all relatively clueless. It would be nice if one of the largest media outlets in the world had a deep understanding of what they are talking about. |

Or that the he thinks through mining on your desktop you will receive 50 BTC. Or that they don't understand how the blockchain works. Or that the lady in the red dress is completely clueless and the other two are not far ahead of her. Or the fact that all three are under the impression that it can simply be made illegal. If there was a feasible approach as simple and thoughtless as making decentralized virtual currencies illegal, regulators and agencies wouldn't be having discussions. It would probably just be done. It would be nice if one of the largest media outlets in the world had a deep understanding of what they are talking about. For being Fox News they actually did quite a good job... |

He says "and you can actually generate your own bitcoins on your desktop... 50 at a time" But otherwise this is pretty good. |

dumb lady: "Well come on, do you think the IRS is going to stand by and let us invent an entire new currency that we can hide what we buy and what we do and what we earn? No way."
dude: "We did. 4 years ago. It's been going on for 4 years."
I loved that part. Also, I love how she thinks just because the government cannot regulate something that it should become illegal.
