If we want to be acknowledge by the government, being regulated will help. Besides it is also for the good. Especially when some fraud use cryptocurrencies as their medium, they will fail because of these regulations. I think it may take some years for these to settle down and come up with both parties [government and cryptocurrencies] in favorable conclusion.
That's the advantage of regulating crypto by the government which is to prevent the increased number of scam ICO. Also, if the government will seriously to help the community to improved their economy then this is a better idea. Especially now, more and more countries are now getting interested in the world of crypto.
