I have been supporting AK like many people out there and if he would have stayed as CM , he could have set benchmark for administration but everybody knows how things turned out after his resignation. He has been honest but politics got better of him.
I do believe that he has delivered many things in 49 days gov that other government fails to deliver in 5 years + just think if he could have got the majority of 36 , than I'm sure he could have done things a lot different , the way congress was playing games it was always clear that this government will not last long, but anyways I do believe that Indian media is sold out, what more to prove Reliance just bought Network 18 , and they surely don't want to loose control over Politics as they know they can easily manipulate bjp/congress led governments which they are doing. There is no doubt involvement of corporate houses in politics and regarding media , it has turned into Great Indian Media Circus with every channel portraying different image of a particular party to the public and filling its pocket with cash under the name of so called journalism.
So sad people think he's the one who's fooling public and not the one he points to likes of Sheila Dixit, Nitin Gadhkari, Reliance , and many more , when he talks people asks about evidence when he provides they call it " Drama " ,
They want to get rid of corruption and all and when someone tries to make an effort they just make fun of them.

I have nothing against Kejriwal per se.
I didn't want him eating into the anti-congress votes in the Lok Sabha elections this year. Thankfully, that didn't happen and we have a stable government.
It would be good if he starts at a small level, proves his capabilities and then dreams about bigger things.

They definitely would diversify. If they can be sophisticated enough to use off-shore banking havens like Switzerland, using bitcoins would be no different.
But I see Arvind Kejriwal publishing a list of addresses and claiming that they belong to Congress/BJP politicians.
Haha AK really making it tough for politicians. that's the point if he does that unlike the situation now where he keeps shouting the swiss account numbers of likes of Ambani's but can't prove they are real and are holding any money , he'll be able to back his claims.But I see Arvind Kejriwal publishing a list of addresses and claiming that they belong to Congress/BJP politicians.
The situation now is you got the account numbers but both bjp/congress don't wanna share them with public for some obvious reasons. that won't be possible with btc.
Knowing Kejriwal, he would probably pick up Satoshi / Silk Road's bitcoin address and claim they belong to Sonia Gandhi/Narendra Modi.
May be
but now its difficult for him to fool the public after his delhi debacle.They want to get rid of corruption and all and when someone tries to make an effort they just make fun of them.

So if at all BTC becomes mainstream in India, what will it be attributed to? corruption?
Depends.. but I don't think so that using bitcoin to take bribe is a good Idea, and when we talk about corruption in India , you know we are talking about Billions or $$ , politicians are not stupid when it comes to corruption nd I'm sure they don't want to get listed in public taking thousands or maybe more of btc's. on the other hand I don't think they are smart enough to not to leave any footprints behind of transaction.They definitely would diversify.

BTC can become mainstream in India with all the online shopping boom going on, but no store will jump on the bandwagon unless RBI gives some clear guidelines.
Won't that be more true if payment processors start accepting BTC - in the likes of payu, CCAvenues, Billdesk & Payzippy?
Anyone has any update on RBI's stand, or we are still at same position , I can expect that keeping in mind the speed at which government authorities takes decisions in India .
I am not sure if RBI will ever take a pro-bitcoin stand because the moment they do that, it's gonna get complicated for them. Look at how exchanges like unocoin, igot (managed even if not indian) operating. If they are legal, I don't know how CC Avenue allowing BTC payments cannot be.

Lol....the sound of the caption got me amazed.....n the reason for the ranking made it obvious!!!!
Still i cant believe india could be on 4th.
May be using for investment purpose or buying illegal stuff but not using for shopping.

You should look at the parameters used...
- Inflation: Definitely high in India, thanks to the UPA
- Black Money: Again you know, whom to thank for that
- Remittances: Kerala-Dubai connection.
- Financial Repression: Well, Rajan is reducing the SLR, but I guess repression is high.
- Technology Penetration: I guess we score low in smartphone penetration
- Financial Crises: None recently, thankfully.

Yep, but the report may be a touch overly optimistic about India
The younger tech savvy folks will over time embrace btc, provided the RBI stays constructive
Not sure about the old economy types though

The size of the informal ("black") economy is one of the factors that they used. China's ranking came down because of this.
My guess is India scored big on this parameter.
