1/ The Department of Justice just published a new comprehensive report on cryptocurrencies. It's pretty balanced given the context of their mission. Here are some parts I found interesting. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-william-p-barr-announces-publication-cryptocurrency-enforcement-framework
2/ The introductory essay by the task force chair seems to pass the "ideological Turing test" in that it fairly describes what and why this tech is being built.
3/ They are fully aware of DeFi.
4/ The epigram at the top of the report conveys a balanced approach.
5/ I think this is just plain wrong. There is nothing about anonymous cryptocurrency that would prevent an MSB from fully meeting its BSA obligations. Indeed FinCEN has said as much.
6/ This is a really odd policy. Do they also simply warehouse all the dollar bills they seize?
