I believe that there was loop hole in laws which was used. For example some time ago it was possible in my country (EU) to buy MasterCards  in local shops and with it came virtual bank account for this Mastercard and it was used in the same manner, for laundering money.

Regarding the Korea. I am glad that it will be sorted out , it will help market to rebound  and Korea to trade soundly again.

According to multiple reports on Tuesday, South Korean regulators have rubberstamped the ban on anonymous cryptocurrency trading through anonymous virtual bank accounts in the country. Strictly speaking, the long-anticipated move will not allow  traders to make deposits into their wallets at domestic cryptocurrency exchanges unless their names on their depositing bank accounts matches the account name at cryptocurrency exchanges.

When it comes to banking lots of employees will sign contracts agreeing that they can't have personal trading accounts on regular markets. There's no reason why they'd allow them on irregular ones either.

There may be a division between retail banking and investment banking employees but restrictions are there.

We say that the Lightning Network will solve scalability issues.

Let's assume for a second that the Lightning Network is deployed to the mainnet in its final form and that hundreds of thousands of users start using it.

In this scenario, we would most likely have thousands of channels open and each user would be able to reach any other user or company with one or more hops.

How likely it would be that, at this stage, all Bitcoins will be migrated over to the Lightning Network, that channels would be kept open all the time, and that, basically, we would trade with a token issues on an alternative network (the Lightning-Bitcoin traded on the Bitcoin network)?

It is clear that many people don't know what a pump-and-dump scam is. That is unfortunate, because their ignorance may lead them to join a pump-and-dump group, not knowing that they are the intended victims.

Pump-and-dump is not a rise in price followed by a fall in price. That is the result of a pump-and-dump.

It is better to use one of fast altcoins for transactions bitween exchainges. It's cheaper and faster. I use Dogecoine for this

Is pump and dump illegal or not?
if not can you share a link of it ?

I'm pretty sure that services like Coinbase are deliberately sabotaging SegWit adoption to participate in pumping altcoins by keeping Bitcoin fees higher than they could have been. Coinbase and Bitpay were actively supporting SegWit2x, claiming that people will abandon Bitcoin if fees will be too high, but now that they for 5 month already have the ability to lower fees for their customers and still refuse to do so, it's clear that they don't really care about fees and their customers. And what is worse, they also don't batch their withdrawal transactions, which could have reduced fees for them by 80-90%. This perfectly demonstrates why centralized systems can't be trusted and tend to abuse their power, which is why Bitcoin was created in the first place, and we as a community should not let it slide - we should tell newcomers to stay away from Coinbase and other services that support SegWit2x or Bcash.

You should give the source (a link to the article) whenever you copy paste stuff.
Going all in on Bitcoin is only something the fool hardy might try now. Peter Thiel might be able to afford to do this, given his background. For ordinary investors, it is better to take limited exposure, which they really wouldn't mind losing. My personal view is that cryptos shouldn't account for more than 5% of your portfolio.

I'll be happy to hear any positive advice, tip or insight on the subject

I assume this question apply to stock market too? Price on coins are different on different Exchange?  However the price difference should not be much, and the price change constantly.  Therefore I should not worry about it?

Coinbase has high fee.
LocalBitcoins has scammer.  Price is set by the seller?  It means price could be very different than market?
