> A temporary ban could be introduced during the autumn of 2025, the government said.

... plans ... temporary ... could be ... autumn 2025 ...

This sounds like a open palm from the government for kick-backs from bitcoin operators, i.e., nice bitcoin mine you have there, a pity if it had to be closed.

    Doesn't that logic apply to any proposed regulation of any industry?

      I think the point I was trying to make if there indeed was a point but perhaps there might be one later was that this announcement is partically vague.

      It leaves no planing possibilities: will it happen/won't it happen, when will it happen, how long will it be etc - how does one plan for something that vague?

      Most regulation have a deadline so that people can adjust and be prepared, this one is particularly vague "autumn 2025" - that's a window of three months and hence my comment - half in jest of course or completely in jest, or I don't really know.

      But you're perfectly correct, it applies to all regualations, also to big beautiful bills.
