Indeed government not allowed bitcoin as legal payment transaction I think we are freedom have alternative way selling cryptocurrency trough P2P transaction, we can hide with how much cryptocurrency assets and can't investigate by government. During with global exchange not banned operation in your country we can get freedom with bitcoin investment, not problem yet when government make bitcoin as banned for digital currency payment because P2P make us more freedom when transaction with the other for selling or buying cryptocurrency assets.
All government have policy with bitcoin how to be legal digital currency payment will make their fiat position loss transaction in the future, many benefit with bitcoin will make transaction more dominance using bitcoin than fiat.
In fact, the government is not not allowing its citizens to use digital currency, but in fact those of us who are avoiding the government from using digital currency are actually only avoiding the taxes that the government imposes for one transaction, in fact the government has authorized its citizens to use digital currency for their income, only one thing that is prohibited by the government is to use it as a means of buying and selling goods using digital currency, in fact that is a problem point that exists in every big country, many have legalized cryptocurrency circulating in several big countries, even in Southeast Asia they have legalized it...
Everyone is given the freedom to invest using anything in the form of bitcoin, crypto, tokens, gold, etc. The point is, don't just use buying and selling goods, which is what is desired in every country, because that will bring down the country's currency if that happens and of course there will be taxes. Also given by the government, of course everyone will reject it.
