As of November we should have Bitcoin as a legal currency in the US. I saw news about it last week that they are beginning to write legislation now. This could be seen as good and bad, but I think it shows that the government is taking an interest in what is going on. Also the IMF is beginning to utilize blockchain tech. So yes, we do need to stay vigilant.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
@justinschwalm the source documents reveal that governments, central banks, and the uber influential supranational organizations have been and are pursuing plans for blockchain tech - it is more than merely "taking an interest" in bitcoin and blockchain tech. This is not new interest in, but rather new policies and regulatory enforcement reaching the public for the first time.
But thanks for mentioning the U.S. policy changes toward bitcoin, I did a quick search and think you may be referring to some Congressional interest in the compliant AML Bitcoin, the Daily Caller wrote: Congress Considering Validating Bitcoin?
As I was searching I ran across this: BitAML regulatory compliance experts I imagine that means these individuals study the U.S. Treasury Dept. FinCen regulations.

If I may request, keep a keen watch on the Treasury Dept. FinCen and the central banks (esp. UK and CHINA) as enforcement and lucrative government/mega-corp contracts are to come.
