          if you care to peruse the thread, you will see that i posted that canada is a safe haven for bitcoin exchanges prior to the post that bitcoins are kaput by a canadian.

          get it now?
          they are clamping down a bit now. you used to be able to buy bitcoins 'anonymously' by walking into a bank and depositing cash into their account. they stopped allowing this and now require all kinds of documents. too bad. you can be damn sure a good number of canadians using bitcoins are going to get audited. they did the same thing with big users of epass.
          you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

              Apart from Webmoney (Russian) the other companies you have listed where either operating out of the US in some way or had incorporated their company in some tiny island or small country that was easy for the US to pressurise into closing them down.

              Adult King posted this the other day concerning Liberty Reserves

              Furthermore they created a fake set of accounts accessible to the Costa Rican authorities on the Liberty Reserve platform to attempt to get around financial tracking requirements.
              Going forward I don't see the US being able to pressure or bully countries like Russia & China into closing down Bitcoin exchanges IF Russia & China are willing to let Bitcoin flourish.

                They aren't even consciously aware of it. For them it probably feels just fine.

                Amen

                    In China you can only use BTC (or any virtual currency) for online purchases, like video games, memberships, and so on. Their current law forbids cyber currency from being used in the real market. That may change, but as of today that is the law. That said, for the online market alone it could be enormous.

                    Russia on the other hand...
