Just read a news coming from one of the biggest tb network here in my country, after bitcoin hit $10k mark, there was an announcement came from the Security and exchange commision and central bank that people should be careful with investing with cryptocurrencies.  Because it is not registered or the government has no say with it.  If its price goes down reall hard or it is gone then people who invest with it will no longer get their money as it is not regulated by the government.  So maybe there would be a chance that our government will step up.
