Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Well, we certainly need liquidity and the US is a big market.  A professional service Bitcoin exchange in the US would be great.  Such an exchange would necessarily have to work with banks and regulators - there is no way around that if you want to be able to quickly move large amounts of USD in and out of Bitcoin.

Same shit, different day.

Nothing has changed. Bitcoin isn't, can't, and won't be regulated.

I'm grumpy!!

After hearing this for the last three years, and because of the technical impossibilities, I'm inclined to think you're as wrong as everyone else has already been.

If the powers that be could regulate cryptocoins, they would have done so a long time ago. The simple truth hasn't changed - you can't regulate file sharing, which is all a bitcoin transaction really is. Ask the RIAA.

Regulating exchanges just sends people to other exchanges. They tried regulating mtgox - yeah, that mtgox. You newbies don't realize it, but that was the first exchange to start asking for Gov ID. They were the play-by-the-rules exchange, and they ended up being the big thief. Understand that the REGULATORS ARE THE THIEVES!!

I'm grumpy!!

Some people say "it is" because existing regulations may apply already.

That's part of the debate... do we need additional regulations specific for this new technology, or do the old regulations have it covered?

I don't believe regulation is the "key" to marketplace stability... we'll see if that ever happens.
