but we should not forget from which world she comes.
Indeed, this is a very good point.
But somehow I doubt that she
can "be nice" towards those "trade mark" coins and "kill" Bitcoin; Bitcoin is after all
the coin.
Even a proper Europe-wide strategy towards Bitcoin could be beneficial, since Germany, one of the powerful EU economies, recognize it as a properly trade-able currency (but again, it may be just wishful thinking).
Banks and Bitocin can hardly find a common language, these are two different worlds, which is on the one side fully centralized, and other which tends to be completely decentralized. Since world is turn around money, and who control money is control world - bitcoin is just not fit in that picture for most of world countries.
It is true that Germany is make very good laws and regulation regarding cryptocurrency, some of them as
"no tax after one year of crypto holding" is dream for any crypto user. But other EU members do not follow Germany on that, most countries think about cryptocurrency as something passable which will with time disappear or become quite harmless for monetary system.
How EU is
united about some questions we can see every day, so I do not expect that we should see other countries say that bitcoin is
good in general, but they will only work on how to get more tax from people who are involved with crypto.
Only positive about Lagarde is that she know something about cryptocurrency, but in what way she will use that knowledge it remains to be seen.
