It is good for the Indians and also good for the overall adaption of bitcoins. When it become legal in a country, the more the people will use it. There will be many people who will come to know about bitcoin after hearing this legalization news.

I think this depends on the country as well. Bitcoin is not illegal in our country and it is legalized for some time now but I am not seeing any development and improvement of it for years now. An ATM was built but after that, no that many stores actually are accepting it. Maybe it would still take some time but for now, I hope that it would continue for India.

Buy Bitcoin

Quote from: Bitcoinislife09 on June 19, 2020, 10:38:44 AM

A lot of companies are also interested in India. A lot of articles also published where India legalizing bitcoin also a lot of companies also investing in India. Still, a lot of companies are going to see big potential in the country since there are surely investors in the country that is interested in bitcoin technology, etc. Still, there are rumors online where India could ban bitcoin in their country but I doubt it since it could be a good opportunity to the country to adopt in bitcoin technology. Like other countries, bitcoin adopting bitcoin is a great opportunity in that country.

Indian companies interested in Blockchain technology and foreign blockchain-based companies planning to invest in India has nothing to do with the legalisation of Bitcoin in India. Most of the previous official recommendations in India always accepted the technology behind Bitcoin ie. Blockchain technology but not Bitcoin.

The surge in Bitcoin trades in the past months doesn't mean that it is going to boost the prices or improve the adoption. And as far as I'm concerned, the recent news that India is planning to ban Bitcoin is just a FUD. Unless we have an official statement we shouldn't be much bothered much about it.

Speaking with my good buddy who is Indian/ lives in India, he believes there is a real chance that India bans bitcoin /cryptocurrency again. I'm sure that could certainly have something to do with this hot streak. I sure hope India decides not to ban cryptocurrency however. Would just be another step backwards for a country who is already stuck in the past in far too many ways.

This is due to the fact that for a long period of time bitcoin transactions were banned in India and also the exchanges also withdraw support for bank transfers if you would have sold your bitcoins. The supreme Court of India decided to allow bitcoin trading again and this caused all those people who used to trade bitcoins to come back and start doing business again, now I think bitcoin is even more popular in India than ever as the case got a lot of media coverage thus getting publicity.

Since the day of judgement by the Supreme court of India, Crypto-based activities on exchanges have been rocketed up. After 2 days following the decision, Cashaa India which is a cryptocurrency banking services platform, observed an increase of 800% in trading volumes. India is country with population over 1.3 billion people which will definitely make India one of the biggest market for cryptocurrency and as Bitcoins are now legal investors will feel more secure and safe.

This might may not continue for long as new report indicates that India is planning to put the law in place to ban the cryptos from the country. This may not be the good news for the all the crypto enthusiastic who were happy when the court ruled out the RBI judgement and stated that they were legal. Will need to wait for further updates on the is matter.

Maybe their country is really not that prepared in engaging into cryptocurrency and yet they allow it. Probably they are having a hard time right now manipulating cryptocurrency in their economy because they don't have proper plans or actions regarding their legalization of cryptocurrency.

As they plan to discontinue the use of cryptocurrency, i'm pretty sure that there are a lot of bitcoin users who are worrying about their assets and they will have a hard time managing and using their cryptocurrency in their country once they prohibit again the use of cryptocurrency.

We have nothing to do with that, they should accept what the authorities asked them to do if the legalization of cryptocurrencies will go back to normal where it is not allowed to operate in the market.

Three days ago I found this article https://inc42.com/buzz/india-likely-to-ban-cryptocurrency-us-to-add-crypto-features-to-dollars-more/amp/ and have read it.

The indian government will ban crypto currency for the second times, but it is just a rumor and it may a FUD only.

However, legalized bitcoin or crypto currency as a whole at the current time is the right thing to do, especially for crypto user. There will be many people who will try to buy crypto and will be made as trading place or investing place.

Hey. The crypto market has so many news, FUDs on "Bitcoin is banned", "Bitcoin is on fire in USA., India, China", etc. Months or years later, we have bitcoin is allowed to trade.

Facebook's Libra coin is prohibited to launch, that is a news months ago in 2019. Latest months, Facebook launched their Facebook shop, that is another step to move closer to Facebook Libra coin.

Don't worry because the fate is bitcoin is the future and the destiny of the world's financial ecosystem. Blockchain-based technology will change the global financial payment ecosystem.

According to an article, India is planning to ban cryptocurrency again in their country due to some serious problem that is still unclear.

https://www.businessinsider.com/india-may-ban-cryptocurrencies-again-and-its-unnerving-the-community-2020-6

But as far as I know, India's economy is really far from recession and cryptocurrency activities are still ongoing and active. Trading volume really got bigger as people in India are trusting bitcoin so much, and they are so confident that its price will increase. They are aware of the volatility but still people are risking their assets and they treat bitcoin as a source of huge money. They should know its importance and how volatile it is in the market. They should be accountable if the bitcoin's price comes down in a certain season.

Idunno man. The "x country is planning on banning bitcoin/cryptocurrencies" news have been thrown out a lot throughout the years that I mostly just think that it's BS. I'm definitely not saying that it's impossible for Bitcoin/crypto to get banned on India because it's definitely possible, but I'll believe it when I actually see it.

The Paxful CEO and founder Ray Youseff said that India is a "sleeping giant" for the cryptocurrency world.
I agree with him,but there's no clear statement coming from the Indian government regarding Bitcoin and cryptocurrency trading.Will India join the group of crypto-friendly countries or will it remain in the group of anti-crypto authoritarian regimes of the third world?
I hope that China will follow India's example and allow cryptocurrency trading.This would be great news for the future of our community and industry.

I saw another topic here yesterday which is about after legalizing Bitcoin in India that the government is about to ban it again, if a new bill should be approved. Someone posted that here yesterday in this Bitcoin discussion section of the forum, but I didn’t really believe it, and I’m hoping it will be just another false news.

As of now that Bitcoin is legal in India I know for sure that there will be a huge adoption there and India is going to be among the biggest community in the cryptocurrency industry. It’s really going to push us ahead and the price will even keep growing as more people from there are adopting it.

Considering the population of India and China, both should remain friendly to crypto space. Because any restriction from either one of these country will lead to significant impact on bitcoin markets. Like most other people I too do not want that to be happening. But, we cannot be sure what these governments are planning behind the screen as we do get mixed news from these countries.

Take note. When a person is trading bitcoin, it doesn't automatically mean that he's betting that bitcoin will get big. It could be the case that a certain person is only trading bitcoin just to take advantage of the high volatility, and just mainly to take money. I personally could frequently trade XRP and at the same time think that it's a completely useless project.

I feel happy knowing trading in India is on fire, hopefully the price of bitcoin will go up with enthusiasm of traders in India. Remain careful,
not to be provoked by FOMO, because it can be dangerous if you get to FOMO. Always analyze the movements of bicoin, if not careful, you
can buy at the price of the peak. I hope not only that trading in India is on fire, but throughout the other country too. So the price of bitcoin
can pump.

That's very true. I also wanted to point out that there was a thread about similar things happening in Russia (way more people registering on Binance lately) just yesterday. Some might think that increased trading will lead to higher prices, but that's not necessarily the case. If people are in it for trading, the price can stay exactly the same even if the number of people is significantly higher. So it's not a reason to get excited. It means that people believe they can profit from Bitcoin, but not that Bitcoin is the future or something like this.

Isn't it just because everyone is at hope working and in front of their pc?
Or there are a lot of crypto enthusiast out there just making a lot of trades last month. So good for them, at least crypto has moved a lot since they legalised it.

I don't think the reason is working in front of their PC and also because of the pandemic.
It's just simple for me; they want Bitcoin, they want to own Bitcoin.
As you can see in the OP, much more bitcoin has traded on local/peer-to-peer exchange. So for sure, they are much into HODLING, especially the about trading bitcoins in India already lifted or already legalized (based on OP).

If this will continue, we will have strong adoption in this country. Considering the huge population of India, this will drive mad in adoption. I hope it will affect in bitcoin's price later on.

Just imagining, if the whole Asia adopts bitcoin as a currency. The price of bitcoin will boom to $100k easily. I keep wondering why the Asia countries find it hard to legalize bitcoin. Are they all afraid of bitcoin uniqueness or something else. Is it not yet time for them (Asian's) to accept digital currency as an avenue of financial freedom

But as you can see, the growth started around May, so it has something to do with people (not just in India), working from home and looking for other ways to make an income. I would say that bitcoin is already big even prior to the pandemic itself, but it added more in the statistics during the crisis itself.

But for me, India is still in the gray area though, the government is still 50/50 as far as supporting it. RBI (Central Bank) is challenging Supreme Court's ruling, so this growth might put to a stop, just saying.

This is an excellent gain for Bitcoin itself because India has one of the largest populations in the world, and legalizing Bitcoin means other countries could follow as well. They are also one of the major economic forces in the world. Additionally, there's a technological advancements there that they could offer, possibly addition to the security or more inventions that could benefit the cryptocurrency community. This, for sure, is an advantage, and hopefully, others will follow as well.

It is good for btc to be legalized in more and more countries of the world, it is moving towards an ever greater mass adoption. Hoping (at least for me) that the value of bitcoin and other altcoins will benefit. After all, the future will be increasingly inclined to adopt cryptocurrencies for payments for goods and services.

It was then India has ban crypto last year
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-43669730

And after the battling of the said issue( almost 1 year), they'll come into the resolution of this and allowing their people to use and invest crypto. I appreciate how their leaders foresaw the possible positive impact on their economy and the life of their people. Their openness will drive for a better future of their country and never left behind to this new technology. Ain't that it instantly giving a huge impact but as it continues to adopt the system will actually see the results and much they appreciate it especially for investors and traders.

It was their leader who fight for bitcoin legality in India, RBI issue a ban, group of people (mostly crypto exchanges) raise the issue on IDC, and IDC sided with crypto guys. But it's not over yet as RBI are going to fight it out, https://www.coindesk.com/indias-central-bank-plans-to-fight-supreme-court-crypto-ruling. So it's going to be a never ending battle in India. And perhaps traders are just taking advantage of the situation because they don't know what's going to happen next.
