Could you elaborate on the legality of cryptocurrency? I've heard varying opinions on whether it's illegal or not, and I'm curious to understand the nuances. Does it depend on the specific jurisdiction? Are there certain activities related to cryptocurrency that are considered illegal? Are there any international regulations that govern its use? Clarifying these points would help me gain a better understanding of the legal status of cryptocurrency.
