I don't think bit needs regulations but there are parts of cryptocurrency that need serious regulations. ICO needs to be regulated if not it will kill the crypto community. Most ICOs are scams and coming ones are just doing it because of the free money. You will see companies that have existed long ago announcing ICO. They just mop up free cash and won't list on better exchange and still dump on investors I pity those falling for their gimmicks. Besides ICO is contributing to the less growth of crypto market cap money needs to be invested in already existing coins not chasing a new project without prototype and bunch of whitepaper written by school boys.

Bitcoin regulation is needed to support bitcoin grows legally. The government should issue formal regulation
Relating to btc operation. Exchange rule  transaction fee, taxes on btc transactions, etc.should be regulated to ensure btc operates fluently and gives better services to customers or people.

Governments are afraid of the crypto currencies because it cannot be uncontrolled by anyone so they think that it can be used for illegal activities.And also they can get benefits by regulating it so regulation is a good thing and it also can increase more adoption among that country.

Regulatory statement about crypto ban or not, very sensitive to the market, affect the price according to published rules. If the regulation of crypto is a ban can reduce the level of confidence, the circumstances are very difficult to pass and the market price is difficult to predict, otherwise if the positive regulation of crypto trust rate is high

Yes the only thing governments can do is regulate exchanges that Bitcoin is traded on. Regulation it differs country to country, depends on governments how they set the price. BTC

Hi there altcoinanalyst1! I think almost all government or administrator in each country already knew the cryptocurrencies. The could be skeptical of this technological change in the financial system but I think they are not closing their doors to discuss it.  There could even be a group of people that have been tasked to research the benefit and the disadvantages of it if implemented or adopted by their country. At first, the government will have an unconsiderable policy about cryptocurrencies, but after that, the system could go smoothly.

The regulation of bitcoins will be attempted by the government as they do not want loosening of their grip over money. The basic excuse will be taxation, money laundering etc

Regulation will come with both benefits and demerits so we have to weigh both before deciding on it. In my opinion, the huge success of bitcoins is because of the fact that there is no regulation.

I think regulation is needed to support bitcoin grows better,legally and acceptable. Under this regulation, price of btc might be more stable and illegal use cab be avoided or at leat can be minimized, like buying drugs,weapons, terrorist funding, etc. So, we call for regulation issued by the government to support or promote bitcoin growing and globally accepted.
