Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen told senators Thursday that the central bank can't regulate troubled digital currency Bitcoin because it operates outside the banking system.

"I think it's important to understand that this is a payment innovation that's taking place entirely outside the banking industry," Yellen told Sen. Joe Manchin, D-WV. "The Federal Reserve simply does not have the authority to supervise or regulate Bitcoin in any way."

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Unfortunately, authority over a domain is not static and can therefore change.
That is why people worry about regulation.

The Fed doesn't have an implementing power yet, but the NSA+G20 are saving everything and preparing the necessary powers.

Don't drink this Koolaid delusion of the Bitards.

They can shut it down for sure. I don't see how they could possibly regulate it. Straight from a bitards mouth.

Anyone who actually knows what the Federal Reserve System is knows that it is only a quasi-government agency made up of a collection of private American Banks.  So when the Chairwoman tells Congress that the Fed doesn't have the authority to regulate Bitcoin out of practice she is acknowledging that Congress has not given banks the authority to deny doing business with Bitcoin businesses as it is not the currency of just one individual or a state.

Why would that cabal of private banks want to stop what is working so well for their planned NWO currency future.

They (via their DEEP STATE and NSA) appear to have designed Bitcoin this way.

You really don't think "Satoshi" was our friend?

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Why would anyone give a flying fuck what a bunch of nerdy fags at the NSGAY does? Apart from the fact that they're snooping on everyone's private data, so FUCKING what? Surely you would also have to be a little femme to worry about it.
