Abstract: Abstract Bitcoin offers a changing landscape on a global scale. It will be important, in future Bitcoin activity, for US law enforcement to carefully interact with foreign law enforcement and international regulatory policies. Bitcoin-related business fit nicely into Germany’s existing regulations. Australia prohibits any kind of anonymous style digital currency product and has issued bank warnings. Canada offers room for Bitcoin business and does not yet see a need to license agents. While Bitcoin is popular in China, banks and businesses are now banned from trading BTC. The primary banking establishment in Thailand has issued a ban on Bitcoin.
