To be honest there are slightly chance that Bitcoin could disrupt the country's economic, if the government doesn't regulate crypto and the usage is too high then there will be a problem, the Bitcoin transaction couldn't be tax and the Fiat cash flow will be stuck and can caused inflation, there should be a balance to make Bitcoin able to be adopted in a country without disrupting the country's economic

Therefore people are starting to want to know what bitcoin is and if it appeals to them, they will invest instead?
Well the government should not be silent on bitcoin, they think bitcoin is disrupting economic stability and there will be inflation in the country.
Do you think that bitcoin will disrupt economic stability and there will be inflation due to bitcoin in a country?
If people adopts to the crypto currency then the country economy will face crisis because of inflation with their country's currency so governments need to regulate the usage to avoid serious crisis.But you know the adoption of bitcoin among the people is very very less when compared to total population so governments need to act quickly before it is getting too late.

I am living in a developing country and luckily the Philippines is very open with crypto currency. Our government actually recognized Bitcoin as a legitimate currency. Also one of our wallet (Coins.ph) is recognized by the Banko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Central Bank of the Philippines). With that wallet we can easily convert Bitcoin or Ethereum to FIAT (Philippine Peso) in an instant.

I think it is too early to think about it...There must be so much changes before we can consider crypto as a real danger for the economics now

Firstly, the only thing that has always been causing inflation is the manipulated and monopolized Fiat system.

Secondly, bitcoin is a deflationary currency. So, I leave you to do the maths!
As far as I know, inflation happens when the purchasing power of the people are greater than the supply. It means, if the people has high purchasing power, there is also a greater demand. We have limited resources only and if the supply will deplete, prices hike.
Based from my definition, I can say that inflation is applicable in bitcoin. Bitcoin is also currency and I think it will cause inflation but not in a rapid manner as what happened in dollar.
okay I agree with your opinion. It is true that inflation occurs when the state creates too much money. And if it is possible in a country to happen inflation may be the community turning to bitcoin

Bitcoin is getting known in really big countries now a days because of its popularity people indulging themselves to the most popular thing on earth but to be honest we are not yet on the quarter part of those people who uses money on earth, but still despite of the declining value of btc we are still surviving and managing to turn the tag on green in many times.
To be honest in some countries which called "developing" uses bitcoin to scam others who were innocent on using them which makes other bother to invest on to it. And so far bitcoin did not give any marks of affecting in economic growth on one country.

Be honest with yourself. Bitcoin will not be used by people in developing countries in a manner that will move their lives forward by developing tools for it. Its the way it has always been. All they will do with it is buy and hold as an investment, which they should because the price might go higher. But it will not disrupt economic stability if it is being used that way.

I dont think you know what inflation means. Explain why BTC can cause inflation in a country.

Most governments have never been in support of bitcoin not because is disrupting any economy or so, they just don't want most people to gain financial freedom like most people do. This statement is just one of their many FUD statements that makes newbies who know nothing about bitcoin but believe everything the government says. Most times , one just has to learn to ignore whatever negative statement the government says about bitcoin.

Bad policies of government causes inflation not the currency. Bitcoin as seen as a currency therefore cannot be a cause for inflation in a country. Two things will hinder wide acceptance of bitcoin in developing countries : 1. Knowledge of computer. Since bitcoin is digital money, it is only computer literates that can freely use it. 2. Availability of internet. In most developing countries, internet is expensive. So these two factors will limit the acceptance of bitcoin in such countries.

Inflation is due to the government printing too much money, they are monopolizing it, and it has nothing to do with bitcoin.
In fact, when a country has an inflation or financial crisis, the people begin to move from the currency that used to bitcoin, an example in Yunani and Venezuela a few years ago.

I think bitcoin affect economy of a country onve the government has a regulation of it. Because government has right to manipulate bitcoin investments. Well for me, bitcoin can increase the economy of a developing country because of its popularity.

I think criptocurrency will not affect a country's economy thus will help improve the economy of communities in search of revenue, such as in my country criptocurrency very influential to economics not here however it is some banks that have yet to understand a little bit of fear that criptocurrency will have an effect on their system.

Bitcoin doesn't disrupt the economic stability but instead it helps increase the economic growth. Why? Because it provides income to the people, parents can finance there children's education and many more. That is why bitcoin is good for the economy.

People in developing countries usually have less money available to spend and they will likely buy low priced coins from interesting and really needed ICO projects, rather than paying $9,000 for one coin!

I have no doubt that a higher usage of bitcoin will disrupt economic stability, because the government will collect less taxes and this could indeed lead to an inflation for the fiat money, because the fiat money holders finance the state budget of a country.

Don't forget many developing nations are dominated by banks and governments who have exploitive monopolies there.

Here's an example. If you look at exchanges like https://golix.com in developing nations like africa, bitcoin typically sells at a much higher price than normal. The reasoning for this is electronic payment in those countries are riddled excessively high taxes, fees and costs. This puts more deregulated methods of electronic payment like bitcoin in high demand being that their fees are much lower and transactions are often faster. And so in countries like africa you have people willing to pay $13,000 for bitcoin as it is still cheaper than paying the taxes and fees of their normal banking system.

Part of the reason for bitcoin's success is it once allowed cuban immigrants to send money home to their families in cuba without paying the cuban governments ridiculous taxes and fees which could take 40% to 50% of wire transfers coming into the country. Bitcoin and crypto currencies have a good potential to improve the circumstances and living standards of those in developing nations, an integral and key part of its worldwide success.

Inflation is the measure of price increase within a set of goods and services over a period of time. the main causes of inflation are either excess aggregate demand or cost push factors. how can bitcoin cause inflation? bitcoing can create better opportunities for us.

Governments are against Bitcoin because it's a competitor to every Country-based currency...which is all of them! Of course they believe it'll bring economic instability...but what a government thinks isn't an objective opinion. We should all be focusing on what's best for us. And keeping our assets in a investments that will appreciate, that are known for appreciation, is the best move.

Bitcoin creates more competition in the economy and competition creates better opportunities for all of us.

I think bitcoin will not distrupt economies because that transition from fiat money to crypto will not be so fast and also while this transition will be happening, there will be transition among institutions as well.
