People are free to make up their own mind about whose warnings are credible (or back both horses)

IMO if BTC's has a high popularity in these countries even if a country ban it people will make use of face-to-face and similar direct methods instead of exchangers.

Someone reported it 2nd hand on a blog. Thailand Central Bank did not make any bitcoin or cryptocurrency before or after the rumour was started.
