What If Bitcoin is banned in your country will you still use it?

If you use it how will you? How will you exchange it and how will you completely use it as you do before.
such problems are still unthinkable, but in the country I actually use bitcoin not yet legal, while for the exchange of bitcoin into cash can be done in bitcoin.co.id

Yes thats true, I cant even think a way how can I able to use bitcoin if it is already banned in my own country, I hope it will never happen cause I think it cuts the opportunities of the bitcoin to distribute it to the community that may help to develop and innovate every country's economy.

I will be sad if bitcoin banned in my country and I think I cannot find a way to used it anymore the fact that bitcoin was find out by the government and banned it. But I think I can still used bitcoin that I keep in my wallet. I would going to convert it into fiat so that it wont be useless and I can used it for more important things that I need.

I would still use it. Not sure how the government can really find out you are using bitcoin unless you walk around screaming about it. They could block the exchanges, but you can use proxy or VPN to go around it.

I would like to ask you how will you still use it?'
When It will be banned in your country then how can you use it or how can you exchange it in your cash? It will be useless for you isn't it?
If bitcoin would be banned I'm a specific reason, it may be result for a total dump on its price becasue banning bitcoin can also be a result for people to reduce their support on Bitcoin system and transaction. So it could be better if we would used Bitcoin for it to develop and to have growth rather than to have a reason for it to banned.

Although bitcoin is prohibited in my country, I still can use it, just sell bitcoin to USD and use paypal to withdraw money, it is very simple.
It is impossible to ban bitcoins because bitcoins give the concept of more secured and efficient decentralized economic system which continuously challenges the local economic system of the states. The prices may fall/rise due to the ban on bitcoins but this will never discard bitcoin from the world.

Then it will it will go underground, however, I don't think it will happen. Some countries may ban it, but the majority will play ball.
If my country only forbids, I do not think there will be a substantial price cut down to the ground. this is not what you imagine.
I think nobody can stop Bitcoin technology even if the government forbids it, but there will be many people who use it, even if it is illegal.

Well this is one of the risk that may bring down Bitcoin and make investors of Bitcoin have a negative return on investment.
its possible to some countries but not in general people will still find some ways to continue the system, crypto currency I think wont be
banned there's regulation that will be created and still investors will take the risk knowing that in the long run this investment will still
bring good income for those who take the action.
It is impossible to ban it because it gave people a lot of benefit in shopping and in financial way. So no chance to ban such an evergreen and profiting investment. And if some region ban it automatically the region will suffer in upcoming era when trades are done in the form of this so don’t get into such debate and invest to gain.

It is not easy at all in the present decade to ban bitcoins because now people are well aware of bitcoins and other crypto currencies. Moreover too many people are earning their livelihoods with bitcoins and I don’t think so they will let anyone ban bitcoins, not even governments or there will be a big chaos.

If it will be banned in our country today, I doubt that I am gonna still use it or even exchange it in our local currency here. That event might be one of the worst thing that will happen to my life. Bitcoin is my hope that will be the key to my success. I hope that won't happen.

that would be a problem to many users here. remember that we all need bitcoin because it helps us in our financial needs and also to buy our needs and wants. so if bitcoin was banned how are we supposed to earn money?

My belief is that if Bitcoin is banned the value will of course tank. This is because of simple supply and demand dynamics. Without mainstream support it follows that the price will tank. Bitcoin however will never go away. it will just be used underground by those wishing to use it.

If bitcoin is banned in my country, it does not affect me in anyway. Cause there will be more job opportunity within the country, which will take care of my daily activity and when it comes to the crypto world and online shopping mall, like amazon using bitcoin, then I can use bitcoin for all online activities. Cool

Bitcoin is decentrailesd so the fact of getting it banned is nearly very difficult becuse it is not dependent upon any  one organisation or any other if some countries ban it from using it will simply be the end of democracy is such countries but the fact is in this modern era nothing can be stoped on the long run people will eventually find some way to trade with it.So the fact of Bitcoin getting banned is nearly impossible because it was based on the fact that no one person can decide its future.
I think this is something which cannot happen in the real world. In case if this thing happens, then it will be very much difficult for Bitcoin to maintain his reputation which Bitcoin is having currently in the international market. Things will be very much different and we may not be having so many investors then.

If bitcoin is banned in our country i will stop to use most especially if the government is the one who banned it. We know that it is againt the law of government but we know that many bitcoin user can affect their lives because of lack of source income.

Maybe I won't use it and will move to other cryptocurrency probably altcoin. There'll no point of using Bitcoin if I won't be able to use it or even access it. But surely, it will negatively affect Bitcoin's market value because its demand will fall if that would happen. But it is possible to still use it, you may spend it abroad or do tradings using Bitcoin, in that way you'll still be able to make profit out of it.
If bitcoin is banned and altcoin are not totally affected why not continuing use crypto currency maybe if all crypto currency is banned that would be the time some would probably stop but as long that there is a way to do this and use this crypto i would continue it and if bitcoin is banned i would find some way on how can I exchange it if there is possible way but if not maybe I would stop.
considering the wording in most legislation, chances are, that if bitcoin is banned, it's because alll cryptocurrencies are banned. it'll probably go something like: '... digital currencies that utilize a blockchain ledger as a means of tracking, recording, and processing payments...' which would cover just about every coin out there. this is just one loose description, the lawmakers of any governing body can cover all cryptocurrencies with more general definitions put into a bill. however, it all comes down to how well they are able to enforce such a policy, the way i see it, it would take an unreasonable amount of resources to do so, and might not even be worth it to try in the end.

Well, if was banned I think I will not exchange it because I know I can use it in other country. If bitcoin was banned I think it has negative effect on its price and it also has negative effect on bitcoin community. Lastly, I hope bitcoin will not banned and I hope it would not happen in the future.
it might be possible to exchange it on an exchange based in another country, but you are still using it within your country's jurisdiction, that would still be illegal.
