The Law Of Bitcoin released; Legal Guidance For Bitcoin!
While Bitcoin excels in many ways due to its uniqueness; we’ve never seen anything like it before. This is usually a good thing, but when it comes to documentation or anything in the legal industry it becomes a disaster. We are left with individual interpretations as there are no precedents to base new legal rulings on. As we speak, governments are still ironing out the details in how they will deal with the disruptive financial revolution we call Bitcoin.
