I don't get it why you are still considering it as a great news knowing that the US treasury have been hacked by those foreign entities. You must be sad because hacks are serious matter and that just proves how not safe and secure anything that is being catered through internet this time because of the breach that happened. Even if they were pursuing crypto regulation, still it is not good that even the US Treasury have been victimized by such actions done by those hackers. They have a tight security and still they have been hacked by such entities how much more for a simple security feature? This still sounds alarming and I do not consider this as a good news after all.

It’s known as sarcasm.  Of course it’s not good news.

And what’s the good news about the US Treasury getting hacked, does it mean that they are not longer going to push the idea of crypto regulation? Please they will continue what they are trying to do, this still doesn’t change anything. This is the government, and they want to be in control and not let any slip through their watch.

Before starting to count our chickens, I think we’d do well to look behind the curtain for the cause(s) of the run up.  

I think that in large part, it’s politics rather than fundamentals.  It’s looking ever more likely that there will be a new leftist administration in Washington next month, one bent upon instituting sweeping tax-and-spend policies, and Wall Street is going to get a large portion of the bill.  As we all know, money goes where it’s treated best, and that place will no longer be the US economy.  Money is now looking for a safe haven, namely alternative currencies.  The IRS is only now starting to seriously look at how to get control of DeFi.

I happen to be a man of faith in my mid 60s, and have been a crypto buyer since BTC was $75.  Why seems to be confusing you, friend?

You’re quite right of course, but the larger issue is government using these crimes to establish and enforce oversight...you know...to protect us.  THAT my friends is the real criminal enterprise.

From what I’ve read, PII is precisely what they’ve gotten in to, and Treasury really doesn’t want to admit it.  As far as their involvement with crypto exchanges, the whole thing has the aroma of IRS about it.  Call me jaded, but every time government wants oversight of something involving money, my ears go up like a jackrabbit.

US Treasury is starting to admit that it’s been hacked by foreign entities.  This is the same organization who’s pushing to establish oversight and regulation of cryptocurrency exchanges, identifying buyers and sellers.

That just gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling all over, doesn’t it!
