Hmmm. Hard to say, it they have heard and still favors the RBI ban, what difference would be the next four petition? This is critical for the Indian crypto community because it seems that the Supreme court of India will totally be with RBI here. It will totally affected Indian investors and local Indian exchanges as I have read that there are estimated around $2 billion just coming from India alone. So let's just hope for the best.
