Governments of many countries are practically declaring war on cryptocurrencies.
Why is that?
Governments dont understand Bitcoin and want to control it. It is true that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will be disruptive to banking as we know it. This makes them want to hold Bitcoin back. Governments also want to make sure they get their taxes from us as well.
Yes government always want us to pay for them, taxes are their way, they dont understand crypto neither control it, so they preventing it by spreading, banning crypto in some countries are their resolve.
