While my guitar gently weeps!!!
People  do really have different  decisions  regarding on this thing. If bitcoin would  be  illegal  here  in my country i would  still use it though  hence  theres a lot of  ways to make  transaction even more anonymous. If your government would   try to monitor your  browsing    you could still always  use tor  with  tweaks in able  not  to be traced  by  your  isp's. As  long  you could able  to hide your self   theres  nothing to worry about.

There is a difference...It's easier to work if there is not much things to care about...When you are doing illegal things you would need to move carefully which I think would start to slow you down on earning...  Smiley Also, if government is going to make bitcoin illegal it won't just monitor your moves, it will also monitor bitcoin movement, including money that is involve in transacting bitcoin... It would be a very difficult life doing the hiding with that, one false move and you're jailed...  Smiley

I don't know if it would even be remotely worth using Bitcoin if my government made it illegal, and to be honest chances are it likely wouldn't be worth the trouble. I'm not interested in having the government stick their nose into my affairs and if I can avoid having them start looking at me then it's all the better in my opinion.

If it's only illegal in my country i will keep using it,i still can find way to exchange my money into fiat , i will keep using bitcoin stealthly, and i will be extra careful when i am going to use bitcoin, but i won't stop using it
I guess if its just in my country i will still use it since internet is still world wide then i can still ways how to exchange it to my local currency and enjoy my earnings, there's a lots of ways to keep using it secretly and the more its riskier the more possibilities to earn big coming from this kind of investment so i would not stop no matter what.

Of bitcoin is illegal ony country i would probably stop using it. I dont want to get into jail by just using bitcoins. But my country is for me they are legalizing bitcoins. Our wallet that is only for our country has a verygood feature that We can deposit/withdraw our bitcoin into Our local currency. Some banks and store are affiliated with this. Bitcoin is widely open in our country

It is hard to tell with the US government if it is not illegal right now!!  The government is so off and not in tune with one another they can not figure whether they are coming or going.  Parts of the government are considering BTC an asset and others are considering it a currency.  Which is it???  We may never know!

No. I would never use bitcoins if it was termed illegal. I don't even gamble as it's illegal and I don't want to face any legal problem due to a currency. However, I can still see people from countries where bitcoins are banned and termed illegal still trading but they are taking a huge risk.
gambling is only illegal if its a private party hosting the gambling. and even if the government made bitcoin illegal, they would have no way to link any bitcoin usage to your identity. they cant find out I'm using it means I can use it all i want.

I would 100℅ keep using it, there is no way they should be able to tell anyone they can't use it.

If anyone country said bitcoin is illegal then it means they are afraid of what it might do as a real currency towards that said countries currency.
Of course 100% usage from me too. At times the government use to make things illegal for selfish reasons and if I found it to be that it was made illegal for selfish reasons and I am still making good money from it, I will surely continue using it of course.

I'd still use my bitcoins as if nothing is happening around me. And also, as long as I'm not doing anything illegal, why would I be scared of being prosecuted? Also, it's not as if I'm doing transactions everyday lol.

I will still use bitcoins because i think my government has not good reasons for baning usage of bitcoins, there are not something wrong with bitcoins and i used bitcoins for good something, i used it for trading and investment into bitcoin or altcoins.
me as well i think our government would not do any ban because the president are looking for other alternative ways to at least make it easy dealing with any money related services, so if bitcoin can deliver much better i think our government will not do anything bad on it more they will support it since the community will benefits from it, whatever happen i will continue using bitcoin and continue to place my investment.

if my government had made bitcoin illegal before i got hooked up with using bitcoin then i am sure i would have never started using bitcoin.

but now that i have been a bitcoinhodler for a very long time and i have been hooked all up in it, i would never stop even if government made it illegal tomorrow!

Bitcoin its considered ilegal and i still use it, in fact i dont care about what the government does say, they should be worried into care about the financial problems affecting the country and not hunting people that does wanna earn some money online, and all the things that were not allowed to do from my family i had done and took the punishement doing such.

Govt wants the tax money. Govt always gets what it wants.  They wont regulate it because they wont want some internet money becoming international money that would be anarchy no one wants that. At least we have paypal , already is international money its even extratesticle

If my government will ban it without any valid reason then they themselves are doing the crime to deny us from such an advance technology so I will use bitcoin and will try to stay hidden from my government in that matter.

If it was made illegal by my country I would still use it but carefully, I won't use it for anything peer to peer and I wouldn't buy/sell it using a bank account or any method like that, I doubt it would be illegal in most countries of the world.
I too will use it. I would either hold and exchange into fiats when i see a reasonable profit. If people come to know the benefits of bitcoins, they still would go ahead and use it in offline at least. I am sure on it. Everyone is looking for earning a bit or more every day. So when it is promised to give profit, I am sure each would at least give a try to it. Hope this is accepted by the government soon.
