India is figuring out something much of the world already figured out

They figured out you can't really ban bitcoin and crypto.

I am sure China will figure it out eventually as well...

Trying to ban bitcoin and crypto is akin to putting up a fence similar to this one:

Yea, it's there and it looks pretty, but how much good does it really do?

In this instance almost none.

What happened?

India's supreme court overruled a previous central bank ruling that banned banks from dealing with cryptocurrencies.

This was a big deal as it now allows residents of India to transfer fiat/crypto to and from their banks to exchanges.

They hadn't banned trading of bitcoin and crypto per say, but by eliminating the banks involvement, they had made it all but illegal.

Before this was put in place, India represented roughly $60 million worth of bitcoin trading per day.

I imaging in time, we will that number far exceeded again.

In fact, with a population of over a billion people, I would not be surprised to see India eventually become a very large player in the crypto industry.

Hopefully other countries start waking up as well!

Cough cough, I'm looking at you China.

Stay informed my friends.

LOL 😂🤣
The pun and the meme !
You get extra points!
I agree that India is a sleeping giant.
Now that their government has decided to free their hands, we will see what wonders they can do. It’s so much easier to go through the front door then the back window.

Ideally its not the government but the judiciary that helped. The government or the central bank should have allowed this long time back. Hope, the central bank learns from this.

XD

Love the meme

China will never figure this out.

Sure, China will try to implement their own crypto-currency but it will fail
and China, the CPP will fail.
