can you accept that a cryptographic proof-of-work solution to the byzantine general's problem, that implements a general consensus ledger of forth-like script applications, is not a "currency" per se, but a mechanism in which currencies can be implemented upon?

As far as regulation goes what does one have to do with the other? I would answer yes to your question and also answer yes if someone asked if I could accept that a printing press that could be used to print currency should not be regulated as a currency. However as soon as you use the currency making tools to make currency then that currency should be regulated as a currency.
