It was more to point out that with or without regulation there is still risk. Regulation is not the panacea that some people think it is and regulating bitcoin will not make it better, it will just make it more difficult for people to work with it in those areas it is regulated. Plus regulation would barely be worth the paper it was written on as avoiding it would be a simple case of not operating directly within its jurisdiction. If people from that jurisdiction use your service that is their option but the regulations will not protect them so they should make their own plans.

Regulation can work, however it should not absolve users of responsibility for vetting their investments or financial service providers.
