More questions.

So have any governments done anything about Cryptocurrency to either support it or stifle it, or is everyone taking a "Wait and See" approach?

Doesn't the fact that some currencies seem to be subject to crazy speculation and meteoric increase in value hint that things could be unstable and/or easy to manipulate?

Similarly, don't the block chain thefts and hacks we've read about this past year also point to the idea that maybe it's not as secure as we thought?

Wouldn't the anonymous nature of transactions actually be a negative, because you don't actually always know who you're dealing with, which would cause concerns in accountability, legitimacy, etc.?
