Realising Stuff Being Phased Out in the UK

Not sure whether anyone is watching, but I have seen many new hurdles put up for UK bitcoiners over the past few months: exchanges closing down, or overseas ones throwing out UK customers b/c "regulatory changes", also UK-based ones dialling down their services and limiting features that we were used to having earlier.

Has anyone else in this group noticed these things going on, and what's you guys' take on this?

I am aware they cannot "make it illegal" or stuff, but it is annoying enough if the on- and off-ramps are increasingly limited, congested, or taken away. Sure the "genie is out the bottle" (as Andreas Antonopoulos always points out) but I'd rather have easy access and options for going in and out of Crypto than bloody government boneheads -- who don't get it anyway -- making things unnecessarily difficult just to give themselves (and their failed monetary policies) some lift.

Please feel free to comment below and add your own thoughts (whether UK-related or not). I see similar things happen in the U. S. as well (matters around Coinbase & more).
