Topic: Russia central bank bans Bitcoin - page 5. (Read 14372 times)
Not a ban, just a usuall "warning" bla-bla-bla volatility bla-bla-bla stay away from it.
In short: Central Bank of Russia prohibits any (really any) usage of Bitcoin and will treat it as criminal activity and terrorism support.
Translation please?
(Sorry, but after proudhon's "confirmed chinese/russian language sources," one really must take these things with a grain of salt.)
Anywho - this is great for Bitcoin, if confirmed. First, it's interesting that a central bank would have the power to outright ban a private money/protocol, and that is bullish for bitcoin because it was designed by the tinfoilhat crypto-anarchists precisely as a way to circumvent that kind of bullshit. Second, central banks being scared of bitcoin is more proof that it's actually a big threat and not just a series of tulips.
BTC-e is not really Russian right? But Bulgarian.
Bitcoin was designed with such things in mind.
