So how does the crypto crackdown go?

[Michael Froomkin - U.Miami School of Law]

As Hal knows, but some newer members of the list may not, I discuss the

Although the article is more than 18 months old, the law hasn't changed
in any material way as far as I know.

Bottom line: they probably can't do it under the constitution, but it's a
closer call than it should be.
