Sounds like - do what you want at your own risk and due diligence. I can't help but think that large financial institutions and governments are also behind the crypto madness in order to make money on the retail's back. Otherwise, this would have been stopped by now.

I think they are behind it and haven't brought the hammer down because they don't want to encourage "going dark" (or even darker than they already are). Surely they're finding their enforcement arm much more limited than in traditional markets. Not embracing new markets will only make that worse.
