A criminal charge against such a forum will cause a lot of noise and discontent in the news, because this is a forum, not an exchange message board or a crypto exchange. But nevertheless, the possibility is always present. And when the regulator punishes all the big whales, it can start to deal with smaller fish.
That means we all have to be scared that this forum can be shut down one day soon because of the type of service it promotes? If that happens it will unsettle and shake alot of people financially. Am imagining how the forum will be if that happens.
