Comment on Art is crime [NFT artist funds seized]parent

Comments

I hate to break it to you, but there are many laws which are unpopular with a subset of a population, but which will not change in living memory.

Globally, the trend is towards stricter and more comprehensive regulation of blockchain-based transactions. While you may prefer (as may I) a freer regulatory environment, the pendulum is swinging in the opposite direction.

You seem resigned to the fact that any artist that happens to sell above a certain threshold via NFTs will be treated as a criminal, and there is nothing to do but shrug and say that is the way the law is and forever will be in the EU.
