The fact that these threads and topics are not gaining enough attention is enough to tell you people are little concern for legitimacy in crypto.
Professionals are coming.
Professionals aren't really paying attention to crypto because they know anyone who touch it will get instant scrutiny from government.
this depends in which country you live in some companies are quite interested. Those countries will become new regional bitcoin information centers. Countries that ignore bitcoin will stay behind and wil have problems to catch up in future.
Much of the problem is there are tons of people who think BTC= silk road. Why? Because that is what the media runs with. This casts a dark light on BTC, and people think that the only people who are into it or using it are only doing so for illegal activities. You can thank the media for that.
