It is hypocrisy at its finest, let's castrate bitcoin - it is the root of all evil! EU fucked up with refugee crisis and years of pure bureaucracy dulled their minds.
It is the another idiotic idea, they think that taming bitcoin will gonna change something with Islamic terrorism and money laundering? This is not the way, gentlemen.
Well, they can sure try, but I don't see how that could work in the practical world. The monitoring of transactions could lead to something, but not the identity of such money launderes or terrorists
