Bullish! yea another Direct funding source for bitcoin likely to be cut off.
No need to ban bitcoin,only bank wire remains. What happens if the banks decide Bitcoin is against AML laws and stops business with exchanges, we'l see how can price be sustained then.
Ultimately, we're going to be prepared to go this route anyways. I don't see how this anonymous taxhaven / money laundering paradise can continue to operate uninterrupted like it is today. We will need p2p exchanges to take over where there is no big, centralized point of failure. The end goal would be mass adoption to the scale where in and out exchange is no longer necessary because everyone accepts bitcoin. Anyhow, I think there will continue to be exchanges in obscure countries, for a long time to come.
