“The Federal Council of the Swiss government is to write a report on the dangers of bitcoin, examining the effects it could have on Switzerland’s financial system and society in general. Jean Christophe Schwaab of the Swiss Socialist Party submitted the request for the report in a postulate back in September. At the time, he said he had submitted the request because he was concerned about the potential of bitcoin and other virtual currencies. Luzius Meisser, president of Bitcoin Association Switzerland, said Schwaab’s postulate takes a wholly negative perspective, focusing on the risks of bitcoin and ignoring the opportunities.”
