where did you hear that? Could you give the source?

Is the proposed Europe ban similar to this in the UK?

Seems to me that it would be difficult if not impossible to enforce this legislation iro decentralised cryptocurrencies, there being no 'telecommunications operator'  (or at least, no identifiable telecomm operator) on whom the government can serve a 'technical capability notice'.

ofcourse this wont kill dash/monero/zcash completely but will send them straight to the  dark underground
bad investment if you want to make profit
