"Fincen to prohitbit ... transmittals of funds... not tied to a correspondent banking relationship"

For everyone who is sad that there was not a more decisive crypto announcemember by trump yesterday, see this and recall that a decisive announcement can also be decisively bad if premature.

Still working the bugs out I would say.

That being said, if banks will be handling bitcoin, the same restrictions on banks, that banks had before bitcoin, will surely apply after bitcoin. The same applies to gold.

If you want to circumvent these restrictions, you would have to use bitcoin (or gold) outside the banking system.
