Hello there, thank you for your article, very useful information, i did the same explanation with my father, who wants to invest in cryptocurrency.
I want to share with you a story that happened to my boyfriend here in Romania when he wanted to invest in cryptocurrency. You know, first you need to make a bank account, put your money in there and then ask the bank to transfer them to the bitstamp site, in our case. The interesting fact is that the people from the bank asked us if we want to invest in bitcoin and then tried to convince us that it is not ok because this can lead to the breakdown of the economy and to terrorism (she said that she received a message from her bosses). Then my boyfriend explained to her why this is legal and that are his money and he invests in what he believes in. And then the bank worker said that if he does that assuming all the responsibility, she can’t stop him.
So, the old world starts to be scared that they lose power, but the really amazing fact is that they can’t stop the civic society to choose a better and transparent way of getting things well done. This is the future! :)
