Everybody is totally aware of the fact that crypto’s popularity has skyrocketed over the years. However, what most people may not know, is that while crypto is indeed popular, very few cities are crypto-friendly, if at all. Sure, there is no shortage of cases where people made it big with the help of their cryptocurrency investments. However, the fact of the matter is that these investments don’t come in handy in places that are not crypto-friendly.
With the increasing amount of crypto users these days, one would find it hard to fathom the fact that there is just a limited amount of crypto-friendly cities. However, if you take a closer look, no matter which part of the world you are in, you will come to realize that such cities are very far and few. Despite the widespread use of crypto, governments have been incredibly proactive in making sure that they are regulated every step of the way.
The United States government especially wants to make sure that making investments in crypto is safe for all. This becomes abundantly clear when you see the number of people who ended up losing a great sum of money because of their investments. Despite all of these issues, a high percentage of people still believe in crypto and think that they can make it big by playing their cards right. This is absolutely true. However, you still have to make sure that the city or state you are in is crypto-friendly.
Crypto enthusiasts have been very vocal about getting crypto-friendly but very few mayors and authorities have listened. The residents of NYC, in particular, have been demanding a change where they could trade or invest in crypto without encountering any major issues. Fortunately, for the residents of NYC, it looks like things are about to change and they might change in a big way.
The mayoral candidate of New York City, Curtis Silwa is a big admirer of crypto. During recent interviews, he made his stance about crypto crystal clear by stating that he plans to make his city as crypto-friendly as possible. Silwa further went on to claim that if he does end up getting elected, the residents of NYC can expect massive changes to happen in the near future of the city.
That being said, these changes may not come to NYC right away. In addition to that, these changes are big if. This is because NYC would only be able to become crypto-friendly if Silwa gets appointed. Fortunately, however, there are other NYC mayoral candidates who share Silwa’s sentiments about crypto as well.
