Its sad, but the U.S. is one of the states which steeply increases regulations on cryptocurrencies. I am sure, that other states will follow.
To be honest: I agree, that the crypto-market needs some regulations, because we are not in the wild west anymore. Anyways, such regulations should not lead to the exclusion on a countries customers to a business.
