Is no longer news that various countries of the world are not in support of Bitcoin either as a means of payments or for trading purpose. This are been a challenges most Bitcoin users are facing throughout the countries of the world inexception of few countries.
I have begin to see it that maybe they are thinking that adoptions of Bitcoin might bring a partial collapse of the banking system and also a means of curbing money laundering.
So, let hear your views on what can be done to make our government realised the important of Bitcoin and Blockchain Technology.
Sooner or later cryptocurrency will be legalized worldwide. We are moving forward with technology and cryptocurrency specially bitcoin as the first one is the most promising innovation together with the blockchain technology that the society or even government will acknowledge and adopt to it. Some people that is in the government doesn't have lots of information or knowledge about the advantages of those innovations. Instead of focusing on the negative side of bitcoin, why not think or try to look at the bright side of it? Bitcoin and blockchain has still lot to offer in the future and I do believe that it will be used worldwide few years from now.
The major and the mosr crucial reason because of which many countries are stepping back in legitimizing or legalizing bitcoin transaction, and even talks about banning it is the fact that their is no institutional or authoritive backing behind bitcoin. What if something tremendously wrong happens in the bitcoin world and citizens lose huge amount of funds, who is responsible? Whom shall we complain? Is there any backing or authority against which we can protest? Or atleast ask help with?
This anonimity of bitcoin is making is risky for governments to openly allow its citizens to vest their income into it. Its not only about decentralized thing and that government is doing this because its not being able to control bitcoin, its not like that. Even if bitcoin was, being equally popular as now, backed by some private company, the governments wouldnt have any problem with it.
So the matter of fact is that we at ground level cannot do much except for bring about more and more trust over bitcoin in the market, and may be by seeing huge user base and trust, government might consider legitimising bitcoin transactions.
Bitcoin is pseudo anonymous so the government shouldn't worry about bitcoin being used in illegal transactions since it can be traced. That is why most of the exchanges nowadays are requiring us to do KYC cos that's what the government want for them to regulate taxes and execute proper laws to those people who are trying to use bitcoin in illegal means.
maybe many establishments are going down because of it's newest technology that it can offer to people
If you're referring to banks and other companies catering modes of payment online I don't agree with you that they'll gonna go down since bitcoin as we all know has higher fees and sometimes the transactions are too slow to confirm. They'll just coexist cos they offer different fees and laws depending on what country you are.
