This bill has been vetoed and has failed to become law for the following reasons:

Overreaction. Banks must record all transactions? Ok what I would suggest is a system similar to the US's 13F forms wherein investment firms with assets in excess of some number (idk what the number is irl or should be for us) have to disclose all of their holdings once per quarter. That way there is a level of formal transparency, but it isn't so needlessly overbearing that it scares people away from the industry. This is a video game people don't play to do paperwork every time they run /pay.​
 
The veto has been overridden by the Congress with a result of:
House: 8-0-1
Senate: 4-0-0
