Government loves Bitcoin. It generates jobs and huge potential for tax revenue. They simply want to regulate exchanges to insure tax compliance and consumer protection. Cryptos in general compete with the big banks who have no competitor and are running a huge and wild currency scam that manipulates the value of currency for their gain. Banks hate crypto and their CEO scums have the audacity to call Bitcoin a scam. There will be a fight but eventually banks themselves will buy in and will purchase Bitcoin and others to include in their investment portfolio. They're already talking about adopting the technology.
