        Legal a government has no control what value people give a thing...currency is an agreement between buyer and seller, the supplier of the currency is only a mediator...how is that democracy...

        It will be "legal" when they find a way to tax it. Bankers can jump off a cliff. Bitcoin is being used to trade. Confidence backed currency

        I think it is in gov't best interest to get as close as possible to banning crypto as they can. It greatly curtails gov't power to tax and deficit spend which greatly curtails a country's ability to get out of recession or wage war.

        Doesn't the name crypto associate with death? Shouldn't it be called ciber or virtocurrency instead? Perhaps in its cryptocurrency guise, the nomenclature underlies its ultimate fate and demise as a dead currency.

        North Korea is busily trying to find its way around sanctions. Seoul is staying ahead of the game. Keep up the good work ROKs
