Topic: Article on Bitcoin in my Local Newspaper!! - page 2. (Read 2276 times)
Yeah with that may be your government potentially legally approve the use of bitcoins in your country. Or in my point of view at least this newspaper will make a citizens put an interesting on bitcoin. A good start for promoting bitcoin to local people in a country.
Local newspapers deliver local news.That`s why it isn`t covering the news happening throughout the country.
Are bitcoins banned in India?This is sad.
Bitcoin needs India and India needs bitcoin.

bitcoin fee's need to drop first then india would be more interested.
so far its only western countries that love bitcoin because they see the fee's as less than a minute of minimum wage labour or 1% of a loaf of bread.
yet developing countries see the tx fee's as valued at alot more than just a few minutes labour and alot more than a slice of bread
To start with,my local newspaper is so local that it doesn't cover half of the news happening throughout the country.Boy,I'm sure they were astounded by bitcoins beauty that they actually cared to write about it!
I'm not going to translate the entire article because there is nothing new that we need to know.Basically,it states how demonization in India has given "good days" for bitcoins.And there is a chance Indian Government may legally approve the use of bitcoins in India!

it is great to see bitcoin being noticed finally in other countries too even if it is on a small scale. i wish i see some articles and some more people interested in bitcoin in my country.
p.s. i liked what franky1 suggested. you shouldn't let this article just be another article in the newspaper that you throw away, set up a meeting and try to come up with ways to spread the news about bitcoin more. you may even be able to start a profitable business and be the first one in your country.

अरे वा.. लई भारी..!! Fortunately, I can read and understand entire article as I have the same native language. It’s superb to see that the media is showing interest in bitcoin but we shouldn’t leave the responsibility of awareness on media as they are just breaking news greedy organizations (not everyone but most of them) and hence we should take responsibility on individual level and build awareness through our blogs, social media, discussion with friends, etc.
many indians are good in programming and IT so it's no surprise they've become early adopters of bitcoin 
Bitcoin being next big topic in India is an amazing promotion.
If even minor local newspapers are writing about bitcoin in India then it is obvious that general stance towards bitcoin is very positive.
Maybe this article was caused by this news - Largest Indian News Network: Bitcoin Will Reach US $10,000?

Bitcoin development in India is indeed good, many developers from India is very serious about developing bitcoin. Bitcoin ATM in india also have been many, surely this could push the government to immediately legalize bitcoin. If even minor local newspapers are writing about bitcoin in India then it is obvious that general stance towards bitcoin is very positive.

I wrote an article for our local paper (town/suburb in the USA of about 9000 people). Only a few people that I know even noticed. The Editor of the paper had a hard time even trying to just understand what I wrote, I kept it very simple.
There is no retail business in town that I know of here that accepts BTC, and apparently very few who dabble in BTC as I presume some reader who did would have contacted me.

This is only the begining! People say bitcoin is not mainstream. If you were in back in 2013 you would think this is mainstream
Yeah it seems bitcoin is again gaining some impulse, governments seem to be on a crusade to obtain every single penny they can out of their citizens and it seems they are shocked the people have started to defend themselves against their tyranny.
I have seen many news and articles in Hindi newspapers but what is surprising here is too see a regional language (perhaps Gujarati) publishing article about bitcoin.
This will help spread bitcoin in rural India as well

It's not that surprising that even local newspapers are featuring Bitcoin now that its fiat price is steeply rising. Journalists simply like to write sensationalist stories without doing much research, because these are low effort and generally well digested by their audience.
And for India, given its ongoing war against cash, there's significant real world relevance of Bitcoin as well.
Ridiculous as always is the alleged behavior of the government: Approving something that is already used and outside of its control.
ya.ya.yo!

Good to see that bitcoin is getting much recognition but this local news paper sources seems to be local and unreliable.

The actual article :
There is no question of Indian government going to legalize it as it will become save heaven for people to store their black money which Indian government is trying to fight with demonetization
I am quite skeptical when I read a small local newspaper something which is very good to be really true. I believe that journalist is optimistic or he wants to please his readers. It is too early and shows like the Indian government was defeated by bitcoin if she admits something like that. I urge you to read the article of Forbes where the Reserve Bank of India notes that "....distributed ledgers will be monitored and regulatory framework, as required,...." http://www.forbes.com/sites/krnkashyap/2016/12/22/indias-demonetization-is-causing-bitcoin-to-surge-inside-the-country/#7c107291738a. This statement is very different with the principles that bitcoin advocates.
There's nothing new in here when we talk about demonetization, as the days it started gave a boost in the prices of bitcoins which made people a profit of more than 30% per Bitcoins that were sold with such increments than the actual International market rates. This is catching lots of eyes' attention and will surely wake up the government soon, and I don't think they will ever give it acceptance because they won't be able to trace and that's their disadvantage here.
I saw india good news about bitcoin on forbes: http://www.forbes.com/sites/krnkashyap/2016/12/22/indias-demonetization-is-causing-bitcoin-to-surge-inside-the-country/
I don't know why india government have planned to ban on the importation of gold. Besides that they have plan to start regulate bitcoin, it's like replaced gold to bitcoin

There had been tons of indians using btc since time though. I have been to different webmasters forum and saw the rest of them discussing and exchanging with perfect money and the rest. Sure they like BTC for they don't have to pay terrible amounts to middlemen.
Must be one or some guys from this newspaper are making bitcoins and it's good underworking to him in your little city. So that person decided to tell people about bitcoin to provoke them to make some nice money with bitcoin.
To start with,my local newspaper is so local that it doesn't cover half of the news happening throughout the country.
if i was you i would look at who wrote the story and utilise that person.
start a local meetup for bitcoiners in your area. maybe as just a social discussion at a cheap cafe/bar/pub to start with. and get the writer to make a story about it.
while socialising, let the group that turn up due to the story start brainstorming how to involve your local community more in bitcoin.
get them to make a short list of regular stores they visit alot and make that the hotlist of stores to prioritise adopting bitcoin so you can all use bitcoin locally regularly.
also use the meetup to do face to face trading. or business networking(startups/partnerships/concepts/idea's).
use the momentum to keep growing bitcoin in your area. learn as much as you can about bitcoin and then teach it to others.
dont just treat the article in the OP as a 2 minute of fame for your town and forget about it. use the article writer as a stepping stone to help you do something productive as its obvious the article writer has an interest in bitcoin, so utilise that interest
That's amazing news! But what's more amazing to me is that you can actually read that. It looks like the scratchings I would expect to see on the side of an alien spacecraft. LOL
