This is old news, but he was most likely just trying to come up with something that would put his name in the headlines (it worked). A few million more people have now heard of this retard when they otherwise wouldn't have...

Ultimately, US is a liberal country.  If bitcoins cannot exist here, it will exist nowhere and that is not the case since the Chinese are in on it too.  Cryptocurrencies are the future and America is not backwards enough to put a ban on it.

Bitcoin actually needs America to survive,  believe it or not, if America Bans it all other countries will likely follow and the usage will drop, but USA will likely not ban  Bitcoins and the guys pushing the  ban lost and they are assholes too..

it's normal situation because people still haven't got used to it, so they cant make out the way how to treat it properly, Russia, USA and other countries, their official need time to learn about this new phenomena

I'm quite sure I read this new a couple of weeks ago..! and the thing is they are trying to reject the technology without even trying to understand what it really is..! they are just trying to look at its bad side and forgetting that like every other coin in this world bitcoin also have 2sides..! must look into both sides before making up your mind.

I've heard such news million times already, I really hope they will understand one day how many advantages we all can get from this
