> “Or the EU regulate exchanges to the point you can't transfer your Bitcoin to a wallet you own?”

Why not? The EU regulates banks to the point that you can’t transfer money to an account in North Korea. It’s not obvious why Bitcoin exchanges should be regulated differently (as you can’t prove the random Bitcoin address isn’t controlled by NK).



Not allowing individuals autonomy over how they choose to spend their own money sounds authoritarian.


You live in a country where everything is legal to buy and sell, then?
