Will regulation kill cryptos?

[Baimovic]

I think crypto regulation will not kill crypto, and even I see crypto regulation has much positive value.

our source of income is from investors if investors are not given security, and when they suffer losses or fraud, there will be no more investors willing to invest.

like happened with ICO Centra, which is considered has committed scam, and finally, ICO centra founder was arrested by security.

which occurs in China is a small incident that can not be used as a basis for banning crypto regulation.

[Btcalimie]

I don't think so. Those who already invested will not pull out their investment because of regulations which is set by the government.

[Gameroid]

On the contrary, regulations might just be the thing that cryptos need. The market now is very easy manipulated by whales and anyone who has enough money and enough coins in their possession but with regulations and trading rules, the market will be harder to manipulate and people would not be able to sway the market in their favor at will.

Regulation is currently creating problem, but i think that in future when all the countries will regulate bitcoin in their country, then it will surely be very good for the future of bitcoin, in fact all the people will then become more confident and will surely  invest more money in bitcoin. I think bitcoin regularity will be too good for the future of bitcoin.

Some governments prohibit bitcoin and all cryptos, but in this case all the users and holders could find possibility to enter their web wallets and use it further.

[exalterego]

It all depends on the extent of regulation.
Certainly, there should be clear rules to be obeyed by all the participants of the system (no fraud, no financing of terrorism, fair prices and conditions of buying/selling).
On the other hand, if there is too much regulation, the market and the crypto system itself cannot evolve in its natural way which leads to its dying.

[dogandogru]

I don’t think so regulation will kill cryptocurrencies. The regulations are being done to prevent the money laundering and terrorist activities or other scams. Without regulation a person, who bears huge amount of loss due to scammers, cannot seek legal justice and therefore cannot get his money back.

[Msile]

I dont think if regulations will kill cryptos. come to think of it if crypto is regulated, it means its legalized, when its legal , that means everyone wll be free to use it, thereby attracting more users and more value, regulation cannot be totally bad

[brampower]

I am not sure how these regulations will reflect in the future, i agree that there are many scams in this market but will the regulations could end these, may be a regulation on new ICO might give good results and that is the only regulation i need to see implemented in this market, other than that we need to have a free market.

[KingScorpio]

Regulators want to make sure they protect investors from scams, while at the same time allowing the industry to develop and deploy the new technology in interesting ways. Overregulation could move the action elsewhere, which is what happened in China.

It’s too early to tell who's doing the best job of setting the rules. Nations are taking various tasks.

What do you think?

regulation could be extremly gay and evil,

like in germany for example

a license to run a bank costs 1 million euro

only rich and old established germans can own one. all others are their idiots. they abuse that system to enrich themselves but they keep it open for rich foreigners so they can anytime buy a license and co abuse the german poplation with the german elites, as otherwise they would get hostilities with them.

nevertheless people will either desire regulations or they will ask/use cryptocurrency filters to avoid accepting cryptocurrencies that dont help them or dont pursue their interest.

They could definitely kill it. In most cases, I don't believe it would be in the form of "outlawing" crypto, or anything that overtly dramatic, instead it would be something like banning/closing exchanges, or banning banks from receiving fiat from exchanges. They might do this kind of thing to prevent capital flight during a crisis, if that capital flight took the form of people bailing in mass on their countries' currency (think Venezuela if the people had more agency). Regardless of why they did it, this would effectively collapse the price, especially if enough major governments did so.

they cant outlaw crypto because what they are then going to build is basically banks run by regional gays, (gay germans in deutsche bank) gay new yorkers in moodies

gay chinese in bank of china etc. opening large scale abuse for those respective social prisons, gay jews in israel....

thats the problem with regional statism in general its the gays in the financial system. they force all migrants to sell their time thats why there is conflict with them

they then are seeking to define regional rules, like some bridge trolls to decrease freedom for others.

thats why cryptos will continue to run it gives opportuntity to gain capitalism if you dont feel yourselves identifiing with the communist banksters, the technology that is used, gives freedom to operate globally, independent from the communist.

i its likely that these communists will end up as local gangsters trying to imprison all at the expense of others in their "financial" cartels.

thats everything they have to protect the value of their currencies. and thats the threat comming from them, that and constant insults on others, who dont fit into their agenda.

[Easteregg69]

Since its not dead its safe to consider it immortal. As intended. Build to withstand worst imaginable 80's scenarios. Could be China syndrome or even the Stockholm syndrome.

I would like to represent Norway on that matter.. Just kidding.

[jpespa]

it depends on how regulations were made. as long as it doesn't somehow compromise the essence of bitcoin it can become effective. Some countries have even imposed tax on bitcoin but I think it is going good because of proper imposition of law.

[dollarneed]

regulation is basically contrary to the concept which proposed by satoshi yup the decentralized nature. Will regulation kill crypto? I don't think so, but it might inhibit the growth and development of the crypto itself. Many people out there complain about the regulations imposed by their government, and even there was an exchange that had to move their headquarters to another country due to the regulation of their government, there's always pros and cons if we talk about this issue.

[Vladv26]

I dont think regulation is enough to kill cryptos. The only thing regulations will do to cryptos is that they are going to get their price down and that is very satisfying for governments because if the price falls a lot of people will start selling their coins and stop using bitcoin. If governments want to take down cryptos they are going to make that,doesnt matter what they have to do. I dont doubt any second that they can do that because they are the most powerful thing in a country. People could be much stronger than governments but they are weak and dont think clear.

[marabanda]

Most likely not, because progress can only be slowed down, but it can not be avoided, which in this situation should only please. In fact, this will happen, many people, especially the government wants to continue in the world was the old economy, but bitcoin very much hampered this ... that's trying to regulate as they can.

[onurgozupek]

To be clear no government can regulate crypto currencies but crypto exchanges. It's possible to see exchanges have strict rules, limitations etc (like in US) but they will not stop exchanging crypto currencies. People will always find a way to exchange crypto currencies. If all countries have the similar rules, then we might see Silk Road 2.0

Regulators want to make sure they protect investors from scams

in honest government that would be the main concern, but for many governments this is a political threat, they are not concerned about their citizens, they are concerned about their own power that can be threatened
imagine a poor farmer, invest $ 1000 and in one year make a profit of $17000 and that same farmer expand his business, in the time of campaign the government comes to do politics, but this time finds all the people of the village well in life, you must already imagine that the government will no longer have to make false promises because it is easier to deceive the hungry people than to deceive a people with a full belly.

What do you think?

the regulations help us

[darkangel11]

Regulators want to make sure they protect investors from scams,

That's what they want you to think. They offer no real protection and their regulation comes at a price. Government's aren't a charity. They aren't doing anything to make your life easier. They are doing it so that they can control you, and most importantly profit from new business deals.
They can start selling worthless licenses at high prices and make money this way, at the same time posing as the saviors and protectors. Same shit, new wrap.

[Umar001]

Government can't can't be the regulator of crytocurrency, bitcoin has the decentralized system, which can't be control by any government authority, try to control crytocurrency is the beginning of end of bitcoin.
