Oh, yeeeeeeh! a crypto-fiat portal is a big step forward.
And Cryptsy?
Crypto theory will take a stride forward when there is ready admission of three things that represent de facto centralisation:
One: exchanges being set up to gain and trade large quantities of currencies' coins -- Cryptsy
Two: the fact of whales' influence on markets

One registration and a single annual reporting with individual nation providing their guidelines on AML and consumer laws already in books.
