Everyone fears that the end of crypto will come in the form of a popping bubble. A bubble bigger than we have ever seen according to some so-called experts.

But honestly, a bubble won’t kill crypto, the technology is here to stay and the belief in crypto is stronger than anything I’ve ever seen as I detail in this recent post.

But right now the biggest threat to your crypto portfolio is incoming government regulation. And this isn’t just an American issue, other countries are contemplating regulation. Although some countries may seem friendly to crypto now, but when the price, market cap, and use of these coins increase, governments will have no choice but to but to clamp down. It will be a matter of self preservation. A government cannot allow a non-state currency to start to take hold.







Already in the United States we have a Senate bill that is in committee. The bill which is s.1241 would make most every crypto fall under anti-money laundering laws. On top of that, we are getting word that South Korea is extremely concerned about the fast rise of crypto and has called an emergency meeting to discuss what to do. Based on early reports, it seems they are leaning towards regulation to “protect” its citizens.

So in the coming months, I believe knee jerk over reactive regulation will be the biggest threat to crypto and your portfolio. Crypto will probably be able to weather this storm in the long term as I do believe the cat is already out of the bag on crypto and the people will find a way to to make it work. But governments will not give up easily, and we could very well have a fight on our hands unlike any we have ever seen when it comes to currency regulation.

So when talking to people about the newest coin or the newest technology, don’t forget to spread the word about keeping regulation to a minimum. The politicians need to know that passing new laws that stifle crypto currency development are not popular with the people.
