“New York plans to create regulations that will guide virtual currency firms that operate in the state, possibly requiring them to hold a ‘BitLicense,’ the state’s top banking regulator said Tuesday, one day after a major arrest in the bitcoin universe.  Benjamin Lawsky, New York’s Superintendent of Financial Services, said such regulatory guidelines would seek to bar misconduct like money laundering while not cornering in booming cryptocurrency technology.
