Now I am seeing speculation of whether will EU ban bitcoin or not? The EDPB ruled that a public key is personal data if it can identify, even indirectly, a natural person. This definition subjects every Bitcoin address to data protection obligations. In practice, every transaction is constrained by European law.EU might not explicitly ban bitcoin but they might be dropping incredibly strict rules on top of it making the use of crypto in their region a whole lot unattractive.

When you are trying to disrupt a service by not attacking the service itself, you attack pockets and procedures to it which I think it’s what this is about.
From what I read here, it doesn’t directly focus on Bitcoin but rather, crypto asset and its services which Bitcoin is inclusive. What would Bitcoin be without a high level of privacy for those who wish and want’s it. All these would end should users start transacting directly between themselves as that wouldn’t need the services of an exchange.
