And they do it all in the name of "protecting" people.

Ugh. So frustrating. I get that we should care for those who can't care for themselves, but at some point... I dunno. It just seems like the "threats of violence" approach is such a terrible one. Maybe they see ICO space similar to predatory lenders giving out mortgages they know people can't pay back. That's a stretch though because speculative investing should only involve money people can afford to lose. If they get burned a time or two to learn that lesson, should that be okay? It's almost like government is still trying to be everyone's mommy and daddy. Let's all grow up instead.
