      Well it's legal as crypto esssentially isn't regulated. Annoyingly the only reason it isn't considered a security is the environmentally damaging parts of the process count as a loophole against regulation for securities fraud.

          I remember that. White dude was living it up in Tokyo on other suckers' bitcoin, what ever happened to that dude?
