RE: Crypto Current Affairs—Swiss Govt Developing Crypto Legal Framework + BTCC Boss Wants Bitcoin Regulated in China!
True.
However there is an alternative to the centralised exchanges - Bisq.
https://bitsquare.io/
Bisq is an open-source desktop application that allows you to buy and sell bitcoins in exchange for national currencies, or alternative crypto currencies.
Don't know why I never heard of it.. is it similar to OpenBazaar?
As far as I remember and understand, OpenBazaar is more like decentralised Ebay/Etsy.
Whereas Bisq is a decentralised currency exchange. You use your own crypto wallets, bisq does not provide you with one, and therefore, you do not have these lock-down-out problems people have had with Steem and others recently. Your coin is your coin.
Good comments on this post from you @leoplaw
