Sorry if this has been posted already.

"Do you use Bitcoin or Litecoin? The Government wants your views on digital currencies so it can look at making improvements. What draws you to using them? What are the risks? Do you think they should be regulated?"

What a complete joke:
"3. We want wants to hear about the benefits of digital currencies for the people that use them and the wider economy".

We want wants to hear? Was this written by a 5 year old?
Are we to expect as poor an effort in the whole exercise as they put into the their website. What a waste of our time, they should get back to work not try to add more, when they already have much more to do than they are capable of doing.

As a side note it shows how "out of touch" regulators are when they have to ask "why people are using them".
"It is estimated that 20,000 people in the UK currently hold Bitcoins... But we want to get the facts on why people are using them."

Epic Fail! Why do you think, because you screwed up in 2008 and it won't be allowed to happen again. "We" the people.
