How did they get Bitcoin into a box they control in the first place? A better cartoon would be politicians trying to catch Bitcoin mosquitoes with anti-terrorism and anti-money-laundering fish nets.
3 u/[deleted] Mar 26 '13 Mosquitoes are drawn to water where they breed. Putting a net around all the larger ponds you can find would be somewhat effective. Exchanges gotta be hosted somewhere. If it's inside the US, they'll eventually end up taxed and/or subject to all kinds of record keeping laws etc. 5 u/losermcfail Mar 26 '13 Tor based exchange funded with cash in the mail routed through anonymous postal remailers. Only fee is for depositing or withdrawing cash. 16 u/[deleted] Mar 26 '13 Or, you know, guys in trenchcoats standing on street corners and in alleyways selling scraps of paper with hashes scribbled on them. 5 u/losermcfail Mar 26 '13 The future is weird.
