Cryptocurrency and regulations

About a month back I received some advice that I should make a steemit account. At the same time my teach posed the question what do you want to write about. I felt like the energy the universe was exuding was clear. I went home picked up my laptop and began learning. I made an account and once I was fully allowed to log in had no idea where to begin. My question was whether or not putting regulations on cryptocurrency was right. Then I realized that it was a cut and dry question with too little variance I decided to ask not whether it was right, but the question why?

This magazine article is packed with information about the legality and/or right of information. While the NSA wants to have more control over the information giving government more control. In essence that same control could be translated into regulations on cryptocurrency which is the opposite of why it was created, to be free of governmental control.
