the climate of 'regulation' talk along with warnings about 'safety' around Bitcoin as it is does seem to lend itself to bigger interests trying to manoeuvre in the space to exert influence at a broad level, since they've clearly discovered the code is, in the words of Janet Yellen just the other day, 'difficult to regulate anyway'...

so i suppose if you mean there are interests trying to wrestle control along other lines, then yes i can see that...

if exchanges are going to be created and used in this way, it becomes about making sure the free market can offer opportunities beyond the 'official' options...
