Japan on it's move to regulate cryptocoins, has started licensing exchanges operating inside it's jurisdiction.
https://www.bitsonline.com/japanese-exchanges-licenses/Quoinex becomes the first to get such license followed by bitflyer.
So, are we going towards more kyc, identity verification, source of income, income tax, profit tax, remittance tax?
All should remember that states never legalised bitcoin, bitcoin was created "illegal" and many exchangeplattform opperators got imprisioned.
