The tweet got taken down! broken link. Guess someone got a call from their boss saying WTF?

Either the news item about BTC was posted by someone who hacked in to their twitter account.... or it was taken down after Raghuram Rajan (Governor of the Reserve Bank of India) bullied them.  Grin

Do not underestimate India people.

No one is underestimating them. But the red tape will make dealing with Bitcoins impossible to do. There is a lot of harassment from the tax authorities as well. A number of businesses were raided earlier this year.

See this ---> http://www.visualcapitalist.com/india-the-growing-ecommerce-giant/ They are one of the biggest potential markets for any crypto currency at the moment in my opinion.

It's not 1st world companies that needs this technology the most. Once India joins this venture, you would see innovation as you never seen this before.

Their regulation would be a bit tough tho...  Sad

Axis bank is the most innovative private bank in India (although they are no.3 in terms of turnover, behind ICICI and HDFC). They are always looking for new and innovative ideas. May be sometime later this year they might announce the integration of BTC?  Grin

Wow that's a suprise that means they are Bitcoin friendly which is very unusual for a bank. Pitty it's a bank only for India though.
