Don’t know enough about this issue to have an opinion
@9ZWFB365 days5D
No, I agree with both the above 'No' options. In general, it is for sure known that some cryptos can be scams, but it is not the same kind of scam that catches old ladies that are too trusting. Instead this is people supposedly tech savvy. As such, if they fall for a scam, it's somewhat their own fault, same as an investment to a fungible business that turns out to be a scam. Perhaps some sort of investments insurance could be in place, but just like all insurance companies, it probably will not benefit anyone that much

What people want to invest in is their own business and if they see an opportunity for cryptocurrencies good for them. If it goes wrong they know the risks it takes- I think with growth of AI and scamming etc its dodgy ads and scams that need to be regulated.
@9ZTZRT47 days7D
no, but government should screen cryptocurrencies before circulation to ensure legitimate value and exchange rates
@9MY673N6mos6MO
No, regulations are in place and any person should be able to invest their money as they see fit
@9ZGM5JV 3wks3W
cryptocurrencies have been used for shady things in the past. They are difficult to monitor therefore some regulation may be good.
@9ZD2GRX3wks3W
Government should only make sure that cryptocurrencies are legit and safe to use but shouldn't try enforce tax are be able to trace it.
@9ZCTZV64wks4W
Yes and the government should screen cryptocurrencies to ensure they are legitimate, and all holdings of crypto currencies should be counted as money and be taxed.
