If the regulation of Bitcoin concerns you, please sign this letter to regulator Ben Lawsky

I thought the whole point was to get Bitcoin finally regulated

No you fucking moron. The whole reason bitcoin was invented was to AVOID government tampering. Now we can't use bitcoin for it's intended purpose - which was to GET AROUND THE BANKS and their control of the value of the money.

Good job, you fucking morons.

+1

but isn't the idea behind bitcoins that it is a self regulated currency?  I mean, if someone has the power to oversee this currency, then it's no different to what exists now?
