ShapeShift, a popular cryptocurrency exchange based in Switzerland, terminated its services in New York today,
due to the state’s BitLicense regulations for digital currencies - Erik Voorhees, Shapeshift Founder and CEO says.

This makes no sense - the law is not supporting business which would pay taxes, but to the contrary makes it leave the country - isn't it stupid?
