The legality of Bitcoin depends on who you are, where you are in the world, and what you’re doing with it. Here’s our guide on legal issues concerning Bitcoin, where we mostly focus on the US but cover other major countries as well.

Bitcoin in my country is not legal yet the government does not prohibit and give users freedom to invest in it. Because bitcoin is not a currency but an asset. As an investor or user does not have legal protection and risks borne alone. The government does not legalize bitcoin because many are abusing such as money laundering and even forbidden transactions.and the government is wary of that.

So far the 'accepted' phrase can discribe the existence of bitcoin in a certain country, as for today, some are still trying to legalize it some says its legal on their country but its only allowed since there is no law proclaiming that bitcoin is legal on their  place

To the best of my knowledge, Bitcoin has not been made illegal by legislation in most jurisdictions. However, some jurisdictions (such as Argentina and Russia) severely restrict or ban foreign currencies. Other jurisdictions (such as Thailand) may limit the licensing of certain entities such as Bitcoin exchanges.
Regulators from various jurisdictions are taking steps to provide individuals and businesses with rules on how to integrate this new technology with the formal, regulated financial system.

But have you come to think of it... Whether Bitcoin can be used for illegal Activities...
What are some ways you think it can be used for? (illegal Activities) mention some.
 
In my country, Bitcoin is thought to be a risky currency for the economy, so many people are investing in virtual currencies in my country and defying it. Government law does not allow; I do not think Bitcoin in the future will be accepted in my country because the economy in the state is very underdeveloped.

only a few countries have declared Bitcoins ‘unlawful’ which means customers can’t use Bitcoins in ordinary transactions however that doesn’t imply that they cannot use it for making payments. it could be used for getting matters from the global marketplace or transferring cash throughout distinctive nations.

to this point, best Japan is the first us of a to apprehend and legalize Bitcoin, possibly because it turned into invented there. Many different international locations that oppose Bitcoins, do so because Bitcoin transactions occur without important protection and it’s hard to hint the parties involved in the transactions.

the difficulty is a lot complex inside the US, which is involved approximately who might do the legislating—the states or the center.

yes, until today I have no found more specific legal rules about bitcoin bans. but the rules of a country has a general context about the prohibition of foreign currency. so, because the bitcoin is foreign then the bitcoin is illegal and can not be used as a transaction tool.

yes, if the state does not accept bitcoin, it means illegal, then bitcoin will be an opportunity to perform illegal activities as well.

some information says that bitcoin is used to fund terrorism.

We can say it is legal because it is not declared illegal and most of countries are accepting and acknowledging bitcoin in their area. You can also say it is illegal because many scammers are using bitcoin for their doings. I can say it is legal because, in our country, bitcoin can be used anywhere and it is also regulated and acknowledged by the Central Bank of our country.
Which country do you belong? I'm from the Philippines. In our country, bitcoin is not considered as illegal. Many people are using its name to scam others but it is completely legal. Although it is not the medium of the country when it comes to payment, but many establishments are accepting it, even an ATM machine is also applicable in our county.

As long as it is not declared illegal bitcoin is okay in a certain country.
More and more regulations are now being implemented in cryptocurrency. This can make bitcoin be really approved by the government. When they implement new rules it will help in the long run the cryptomarket.

Though bitcoin or any other crypto can still be used in illegal activities. Such as trading money that is gained illegally or scamming some people.
Yes that's right, bitcoin is not against the law. It such that bitcoin is also not following the law of government. It is only depend to the user how they use it. It's not bad to engage in this investing. Just make it in a good way

It's not legal in several countries because crypto can be used for crime transaction with no tracking detected, the government confuse if someone's is corruption and convert his corrupt's money into crypto

Actually, for Bitcoin, the attitudes of various countries are not consistent. Countries like the United Kingdom and the United States are relatively open and have a higher level of acceptance (higher ones do not necessarily mean acceptance); however, it is more difficult for countries with a combination of politics and business to accept it. Based on some of the special features of Bitcoin, and the fact that this market is just beginning to grow, it is not necessarily accepted by all countries.

Bitcoin is legal in some countries, but there are still a large number of countries that have not accepted Bitcoin. It may be that Bitcoin's uncontrollability prevents the national government from accepting Bitcoin.
