I can only remind you that the struggle between new and old financial systems continues and will continue for at least several years. <strong>So be prepared for both ups and downs ..<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is the news:<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote>\n<div><strong>Crypto industry jumps into lobbying in response to FinCEN<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The Blockchain Association&#8217;s ranks swell as firms look to aid its work in keeping crypto transactions peer-to-peer.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The crypto lobby is growing as more firms join the effort to fight rules that attack financial privacy.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The Blockchain Association announced the addition of five new members, with membership now totaling 30 firms. The new members are Uniswap, Blockfi, Fireblocks, CMT Digital and Blockchain Capital.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>In its tweet announcing the news, the Blockchain Association attributed the rise in membership to its work in presenting an industry response to rules from the United States Treasury Department&#8217;s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCEN. The association wrote, &#8220;Battling back the FinCEN process was an important step, demonstrating what is possible when we speak with one voice.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>FinCEN&#8217;s proposal involved extending $10,000 thresholds on reporting all crypto transactions and $3,000 limits on transactions with self-hosted wallets that lack identifying features. The rules, derived from the Bank Secrecy Act, would be a major interference in peer-to-peer transactions. They are, as of this week, in motion again.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The Blockchain Association, as a trade association, unites members of a single industry under a shared umbrella and lobbies Congress on behalf of mutual interests. Many firms in crypto operate their own in-house lobbying operations or individual contracts with established firms.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>Other members of the crypto industry lobby have benefitted from the attention that FinCEN has drawn to policymaking. Nonprofit Coin Center recently saw a $1 million donation from Grayscale. A Coin Center representative commented on its coming priorities: &#8220;Most of our work in 2021 will likely be continuing to hold to the line for financial privacy and hopefully advancing some more sensible tax policy.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>Coin Center and the Blockchain Association were, indeed, highly visible allies in the fight against FinCEN&#8217;s proposal.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><strong>Join BitStil and bring your life quality to a whole new level!<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitstil.com\/bitstilIMAGES\/EN_Bitstill_FinCEN.jpg\" width=\"100%\" height=\"\"><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n<p>*********************************<\/p>\n<p>If one of the paying programs on our Monitor appeals to you, please support <em>EmilyNews<\/em> by registering for it on our website.
