URGENT: FinCEN Reg to Require Wallet Address Registration in the USA - only 12 days to comment!

The dirty bastards at Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) US Dept of Treasury just posted on the Federal Registry a new regulation to require US Exchanges to not let you send your crypto to an offline (re: address outside the exchange) address unless your tell them whom owns the wallet.

The did this over the Christmas & New Year Holidays to bury it. Normally there is a 60 day window. Now it is only 12 "In the interest of National Safety". TOTAL BS.
