France, Germany to make joint bitcoin regulation proposal at G20 summit

South Korea is imposing a 24% tax now, most likely something like this will follow here as well.
I don't like this development as much as others seem to

You read a sensationalized headline. They were imposing a 24% tax on exchanges that make a certain amount of money, in accordance with their existing tax laws. There's no reason why exchanges should be exempt from paying taxes, and they should have been paying taxes in the first place. I assume it will be the same for individual traders -- they'll be paying the corresponding tax as per their tax laws depending on their profit.

That's just how it is, and I'll take that over a ban on trading.

I think that these attacks are unnecessary should be concentrated in their countries that have more serious health problems and economic the bitcoin is the solution and not the problem should adopt it and stop persecuting I want to tell you that we are many and every year that happens we will be more

Things are getting better and better each day. You're regulations are not a bad, It means acceptance by those country. When they regulate the use of certain things like digital currencies it means that they are accepting those new technologies.

Well, this has some logic, we can see the bright side of regulations. I don't like state control over this sector, but if this is the lesser evil, than better so. Syll much better than governments cracking on whatever smells crypto.

I think it would be a good thing for these country to come together and make a new rule about the cryptocurrency market.
Because there are so many fraudulent ICO projects that need some regulation.
