I am not a crypto guru, but do you notice that some of the coins thtmat promotes security and privacy in transactions (where you cannot trace the source) is being marked for ban?
If I get it correctly, XMR for instance harp on its anonymous transfer which means once it is being transferred into XMR and back to fiat or other coins there is no "paper trail". DASH also harps on secured asset (if I got it right) and for us, STEEM has seamless transaction at the moment which favours a lot of people who could do person-to-person trade without going through exchangers (that's have been my team's encouragement promote its usability in Malaysia).
So these are just a handful that are relatively new (compared to the incumbent BTC) and has huge potential, and this is something that regulators (from the central control of you know who) do not like because they cannot control it.
Probably we should look into which are the coin that could eventually stick through the long run with its activeness being used in the market and the real world, and work towards it while play along with their "stable coin" ideas.
Unless those who takes the "blue pills" and decides to harp on it how good KYC are. (because there is no need to exercise trust from the gut with another person and let the gov do the job)
The saddest part is that US citizens are really being pushed to a corner at the moment from making their own decisions.
Just a thought.
