Korea has decided to ban trade for commercial game items from the second half of this year as a measure aimed at encouraging students to not waste time.

This is ridiculous.
But, it might be an instant large niche for Bitcoin! Go on with farming and selling items, and receive Bitcoin! I don't see Korea banning Bitcoin, and if they would, it would instantly make Bitcoin known all over the world.
Win-win?

Matthew, do you read?

Let's hope that bitcoin will be banned, it will give so much publicity to bitcoin :D

Otherwise, these kind of smaller bans are cool as well, they will improve the situation of bitcoin because it makes harder to deal this kind of trade with traditional currencies. Hooray for goverments, the biggest advocaters of bitcoin!
