If it wasn't for evil governments regulating everything to death, then there would be dozens of exchanges all over the world, if not hundreds, simply exchanging fiat currencies for crypto currencies with no questions asked. The way it should be.

You could probably walk into a bank, a post office or various types of businesses and shops, and freely exchange your cash for other bearer instruments like gold, foreign exchange or BTC.

No. If it wasn't for the evil governments, there would be dozens of exchanges all over the world, you could walk into one of them and never see your money ever again..

No, that would only happen for 15 minutes. After a few people got burned, and after everyone got burned a few times, they would ALL start doing due diligence before they did any Bitcoin business. After that, only honest businesses would survive. Some of the dishonest business owners would die in the process.

Isn't it about time that we start taking responsibility for our lives rather than letting governments do it?
