Banning Bitcoin or any Crypto currency for that matter, will push them into the dark age when it comes to financial innovation. The rest of the world will move forward and create very innovative and

inspiring ideas and projects, whilst they will stay stuck in the old fiat system. Bitcoin are opening doors to many new exiting possibilities and some countries are not seeing the bigger picture. I always

look back at the start of the internet and what people said back then... and how that compares to what they are saying now. {This echoes everything that are being said, now by this advisor} The

funny things is.. Every country in the world, are using the internet now, and for much more than... what was said, back then. Grin

Russian government officials want to exert complete control over the Internet in the country, Although that will be quite the challenge, there are plans in motion to make the usage of currencies not issued by the central bank punishable by law, and the Russian watchdog has blocked access to various Bitcoin sites in the past. According to Presidential Advisor for Internet Development Klimenko, terrorists abuse the Internet for communication and funnelling funds, and something has to be done.
