Ukraine has legalized #Bitcoin. Really A another Good news for all the crypto communities.

What do you think some more countries will initiate for the same?

Bitcoin is already legal in lots of countries. If you check Wikipedia you’re going to see that there are lots of countries there that are marked as countries where Bitcoin is legal, and there are places also marked as where it is illegal. So, it’s already legal in lots of countries, But we are hoping for all those countries that have banned Bitcoin too make it legal and allow their citizens to start making use of it.

Although I know that banning Bitcoin or not doesn’t really stop people from making use of it, because people can still continue to make use of Bitcoin since it is decentralized and they can’t be traced. That’s why we have P2P websites or exchanges that will help people to carry out their transactions with Bitcoin without the government or anyone looking into it, and controlling it.

Good for them. Btw they didn't helped bitcoin but their own country and people. And this is what i have been emphasizing on, that its not for cryptos interest but the people. Bitcoin won't loose its worth, no matter if a country accepts it or not but the people are going to miss out its benefits if their respective govt don't accept it. They will learn but it'll take some time.

Time will tell how people will use bitcoin or any other crypto to their advantage. Some will be hesitant at first because that's normal reaction towards new technology. But once they find out about the benefits or the convenience that it may bring to them, they will change their stance on this matter. Just like protesters in El Salvador, I bet most of those who were protesting didn't have any prior experience with bitcoin or crypto. So it really takes time for the people to appreciate what's in store for them in crypto. We are not in a rush anyway.

other countries will definitely start to re-discuss the rules about crypto in their country

the bitcoin trend is getting better day by day and the community is getting stronger

yes this is good news for the bitcoin community, but on the other hand I heard that bitcoin can not be used as legal tender in Ukraine. the existence of bitcoin in Ukraine may be the same as my country, which was only ordered by the government to keep up with the times so as not to be left behind by other countries, but Bitcoin is only a place to earn additional income and not as a legal tender in my country.

Of course this is good news, with a current population of more than 50 million then ukraine will have a big impact on the market, of course there are many benefits to get from ukraine because crypto transactions continue to increase and become an opportunity for tax revenue.

Well, in overall, this is good news.

This gives the confidence to the people there that there's nothing to worry about bitcoin transactions and if it's announced by the government that they're legalizing bitcoin and everything that's related to it.

At least this is good news for ukraine friends, good development for bitcoin in your country. it's enough not to be banned, maybe it's better than a country that is absolutely not allowed to transact anything with bitcoin and can't exchange coins at local merchants in their own country. It deserves appreciation for this. Hopefully bitcoin will be more advanced later.

and the most appreciative on this is us, this community in which seeking for more and more adoption or unlocking bitcoin.
Ukraine might not be like what El Salvador does but atleast their people is seeing bitcoin in good way and not something that must be afraid of.
i always fond when hearing same news though it is frustrating because the title says different in what Ukraine really stands for crypto specially bitcoin.
but who knows that some day or near future that they will take an action towards using bitcoin as their legal tender as well.

This is good news, ukraine is a country with a large crypto user, it is natural that the government legalizes bitcoin and of course this will have a positive impact on Ukraine and all bitcoin owners, the price will certainly skyrocket because almost 50 million ukraine residents will become active bitcoin users.

I'm always happy to hear positive news that says there are countries that legalize Bitcoin. This means that Bitcoin is increasingly accepted by many
people and will continue to grow even more rapidly, I am sure that the government supports Bitcoin. This will speed up the process of Bitcoin adoption
in Ukraine, this will also have a positive effect on the development of Bitcoin prices. Hopefully there will be more active Bitcoin users in Ukraine,
if that happens it should help push the Bitcoin price even higher. I can't wait for other countries to legalize Bitcoin, because what Ukraine does is
very likely to be followed by other countries around Ukraine.

Despite these good news about bitcoin being legalized , we see no positive momentum in bitcoin prices. Even the quantity of bitcoin is less on exchanges yet it seems that bitcoin price is mostly control by the whales which includes exchanges as well.

This is indeed good news.
Another country passed Bitcoin, which is expected.
I believe that many countries will gradually set Bitcoin as legal currency.
Mining is available in more and more places, and miners don’t have to go to other countries for mining.
Convenient for everyone.

if this can be realized, maybe this will be a good first step for Ukrainian citizens, Ukraine will be the next country to legalize the cryptocurrency Bitcoin Cs. The Ukrainian parliament has just signed the Virtual Assets Law, which contains regulations regarding the legalization of crypto assets. Later, if the law is actually signed by President Volodymyr Zelensky, the government will legally guarantee protection for owners of virtual assets and exchange platforms from fraud.

Another country allowing Bitcoin! That's a great milestone for everyone. Imagine applying it since 2020 and now it was approved and I think this is just the first step towards global adaptation and acceptance of Bitcoin as a currency. I think having Bitcoin is the best way to take advantage of your future.

It was considered in the gray area for a long time and it seems this legalization is better, right?

Found this article: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/09/08/ukraine-legalizes-bitcoin-and-cryptocurrencies.html

from what I read from the article information above, the good news is

El Salvador was the first country to accept bitcoin as legal tender. this is of course good news for crypto users, especially bitcoin, and most likely the development of this technology will not have problems in the country.
Ukraine also recognizes and accepts bitcoin, in fact they started developing regulations for it. it's just that unlike El Salvador, the Ukrainian crypto bill does not facilitate bitcoin as a form of payment. but still, it's great news
on the other hand, Cuba also passed a law regarding cryptocurrencies, and began to recognize cryptocurrencies on the grounds that it was of socio-economic importance
and lastly, it seems like Panama is also drafting regulations regarding cryptocurrencies. hopefully these things will be more positive in the future.

Sorry to break the news to you friend, but Ukraine had never made Bitcoin illegal. Even before this law had passed, no one was going to get caught or prosecuted and sent to jail or fined for using/trading Bitcoin.

The only thing this law does is regulate crypto, which can be good for business, but the restrictions also limit the use of it for other than purposes defined.

at least there is a clear development in the ukraine state after the regulation is passed. thus the use of bitcoin is not an illegal activity, so that the people there can carry out activities according to predetermined limits. on the other hand, this hopefully will be an example for other countries to make clearer regulations so that bitcoin will be increasingly adopted mass

Yes, of course, clarity is always a good thing, but any lawyer or legal professional usually can tell you that a lack of clarity actually helps you on the defence. Which means, if there is no law saying that what you're doing about crypto is illegal, then by definition it is legal.

Which is why all the India drama about banks closing crypto accounts was finally overturned in the Supreme Court:)

Yeah. its true. Yesterday, the Ukrainian Parliament passed a law that legalizes and regulates bitcoin in the country. The bill drafted in 2020 passed with a total of 276 lawmakers supporting the law, and only six against it. This bill gives the citizens “permission” to own and trade bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies on exchanges. Btw, Ukraine GDP $153.8 billion USD vs El slavador is only $27 billion

We are growing fast!

The Ukrainian GDP doesn't matter and the El Salvadorian GDP doesn't matter as well.
The good news is that Bitcoin gets legalized in many countries,as a legal tender or as an investment asset.
That doesn't mean that the majority of the Ukrainians and El Salvadorians will start using Bitcoin immediately.
There's still a long way to for us achieve mass BTC adoption.
It's funny how the government "gives permission" to it's citizens to own something.Bitcoin was already a thing in Ukraine,before the government's decision to "give permission" to it's citizens to own Bitcoins.

Atleast Ukraine didn't ban bitcoin. For me it is doesn't matter if bitcoin is recognized by country or not as long as the country didn't ban Bitcoin then it is enough for me. In my country bitcoin is not legal or illegal, the government just will not get involved in any problems related to it. The citizens invest with their own risk, government don't give any protection regarding this. It still good because cryptocurrency related business still keep growing and don't have any problems as long as the company don't break the existing government rules such as do something that originally illegal. But if Ukraine go to the next step which is regulate the use of bitcoin and treat it as legal tender then I think we can expect more countries will follow Ukraine move.

Ukraine will be the fifth country to set some ground rules regarding cryptocurrency transactions. The Ukrainian parliament adopted a law that legalizes and regulates cryptocurrencies. The law has actually been drafted since 2020 and is on its way to the President's desk, cryptocurrencies in Ukraine are currently in a gray position. Locals are allowed to buy and exchange virtual currency. However, companies and exchanges dealing with cryptocurrencies are often closely watched by law enforcement.

I also agree that this is very good news, because ukraine has legalized bitcoin,, not like other countries that are still against bitcoin, even in my own country it is very difficult to adopt bitcoin, hopefully with ukraine legalizing bitcoin, other countries will follow suit their steps, now we are just waiting, whether their economy will improve, after they legalize bitcoin..

if indeed ukraine has legalized bitcoin, you can say this will be good news, at least their citizens can freely adopt bitcoin, and can invest in bitcoin, without any more arrests of citizens who play in the crypto world, hopefully this news is true and can be published believe..

It wasn't illegal in the first place so it's not really that significant, they just made bitcoin regulated there and at the same time protect their citizens and have the crypto community in there have some representation.
