    Swiss & Italians both have these owing to the bat & ball of laundered money between Italian Mafia, Colombians thru Spain and Switzerland...

    Who knows? If he purchased bitcoin at the right time (i.e. < $5) he'd still be seeing 1900% gains. And the border patrol definitely wouldn't have nabbed him.

    ANY stock is a bit of a stretch. Some stocks yes.

    But try transferring stocks out of the country they originate in. Stocks are tied to a country, bitcoin isn't.
