In India, Unocoin is one of the most popular website to buy & sell Bitcoins. It’s newbie friendly because the interface is more user-friendly & they have both an iOS & an Android app.

A few things to know before buying Bitcoins in India:

Bitcoin is legal in India. However, it’s not regulated by RBI.
According to RBI virtual currencies (like Bitcoins, Litecoins, Etherium, Dogecoins, etc.) trade, and usage of virtual currencies as a medium for payment is not authorized by any central bank or monetary authority.
Unocoin is a legal website to buy & sell Bitcoin.
Well, it’s a no-brainer that RBI & the Indian government will start taking Bitcoin seriously as it’s being adopted by more users globally. I’m pretty sure you are already aware of how popular Bitcoin & Blockchain technology has become in the past four years.

Every country member must give the guidelines like this for the newbies. By all the information which you have given to us about bitcoins and india, I will assume that you belong to india, so can you please tell us what happened to indian fiat currency and bitcoin once the country was passing through demonetization phase. I have heard that all the black money from the different land lords were transferred to bitcoin to escape it and now they are getting the fiat currency back which is the cause of the market fall?

In terms of India's market and national system and its development, bitcoin should not invest in the Indian market, but there are many Indians in the Bitcoin forum because they can get bitcoin through bounty missions.

As time passes Bitcoin gets stronger, though in its journey is not so smooth because there are some investors who often speculate in trading this cryptocurrency. Any government policy can bring its own impact to society that ultimately makes people think and decide themselves to put their assets where. Bitcoin is now an attractive option for maintaining assets. As is known, India has a large market for Bitcoin. If India has legitimized Bitcoin, chances are the future for Bitcoin will be brilliant.

Open question:

Why has Bitcoin so far gotten zero traction in India?

Some thoughts...
---
- India has more programmers/computer people than the rest of the world combined.
- People in India love tangible assets (gold/silver)
- The Rupee is crashing and the gold price has just hit an all time high in Rupees.
- > 10⁸ people in India have no bank account or otherwise access to financial services.
- Millions of Indians live outside India and send money to/from relatives in India.
- Unlike China, India has no "great firewall".

---

Last week, many Bitcoiners got very excited that the turnover on the Chinese Bitcoin exchange spiked for a few days. Why? Because there are a lot of potential Bitcoiners in China, of course.
But India does not even have a Bitcoin exchange of its own! Why not?

Now Indians are investing huge amount in BitCoin. India's Fastest Bitcoin Trading Platform | The GreenPay is coming soon.

In India, because of the religious reasons, the promotion of Bitcoin has had an impact. However, I think the prospect of Bitcoin in India is very good. Over time, Bitcoin may well be far beyond our imagination in India.

Apart from China, India is the country with the most people dealing in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the world, and it's really not surprising considering the number of people living in absolute poverty there and we all know that people living in poverty are always attracted to the prospect of making money all the time.

Being a long-term resident of India, I am pleasantly surprised by your statement. Even then, I would say that the Bitcoin trade volumes in India and the user-base is quite small and not really comparable to those in countries such as China and Russia. I really doubt whether India would rank among the top 10 countries, in terms of Bitcoin trade volumes.

At the point when the bitcoins was not expected that time the rate of joblessness in the India was too high however as the bitcoins were presented the rate of joblessness in the India gets lower and lower with fast and now in the year 2017 the rate of joblessness in India is practically completed due to the bitcoins in light of the fact that all the jobless individuals entered the universe of bitcoins and put some of there cash in bitcoins and now they are carrying on with an effective life world.

I have many friends in India who are using bitcoin and investing on bitcoin.Also bitcoin is legal in India so people of India can use bitcoin without any hesitation.Many young people above 18 age are preferred bitcoin as earning option.There is no doubt indian people are making bitcoin more stronger by investing on it.Many shops and big markets are accepting bitcoin as pay method.So many new people are showing interest on bitcoin and using it.

According to a current scenario it is good price of bitcoin. Most of india used zebpay app as bitcoin wallet. According to zebpay predation 500k new user will be join monthly in 2018. Indian government declared bitcoin as a legal. So their is nothing to worry about bitcoin investment. Bitcoin become an financial back bone of many Indian family.

Are you sure that Indian government have declared bitcoin as a legal. because as much i know still their is no details about bitcoin status in India. Because if Indian government have declared Bitcoin as legal then you cannot think that how fast the progress will be their in India as all merchants can accept bitcoin and other coins as payment system, just like Japan.

I think you are wrong because as much i know India will be in the top 10 countries in terms of Bitcoin trade Volumes and even you can see the price difference in international market and Indian market, here the price is 10% to 20% high then in international market.

It is the best luck of your country that the government of India has declared bit coin as legal crypto currency which is indeed an act of encouragement for the people of India and that is the basic reason that all age of people got involved in bit coin without ant fear and reluctance.

It is nice to hear that the progress of bitcoin adoption in india is going in full force and the exchanges are getting heavy traffic of new users but until government dont give any clarification on bitcoin it cannot flourish more.

Most of the exchanges in India are flooded with users and some of the exchanges even stopped accepting new members until they could accommodate everyone,since all of the exchanges follow strict KYC policy sometimes it takes a longer time get approval and it shows the growth of bitcoin in India and two days back there was a feature in times of india regarding bitcoin ,it is a interesting read .I think that the government will follow steps like Japan to curtail fraud and come up with regulations.
