The RBI regulations were just another warning, I thought.

Turns out major exchanges like INRBTC and Buysellbitco have suspended their activity.

Link: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1tq4am/from_an_india_this_is_ridiculous_another_exchange/

What can we do about it?

I am surprised our government took action, so quick!



Dont worry ;-) its nothing.

so its safe to keep it as btc rather than converting to inr right?

The regulation in conversion i am talking about is the normal tax that you pay when you get money from any place.
For bitcoin it is usually short term Capital gain Tax. Which i expect every Indian Bitcoiner to pay. (Follow the laws of the land)
But for businesses i would  say it may come under some other classification, a chat with your CA it  advisable here.

hi benson
           i am planning to integrate bitcoins as a mode of payment on my website via bitpay.i would like to know what are the regulations which i have to follow ?

You can  accept bitcoin in your website, the press relese was a general public warning on dangers to bitcoin. now a ruling on the legality of bitcoin.

Short answer yes it is legal to accept bitcoin. There are no  regulation regarding bitcoin. however the regulation does apply once you convert your bitcoin into INR

Hey Nilam,

Will help if you could clear up the problems with rbitco.in

It is hurting the community when funds go missing. Another chap from Italy who has been complaining on Facebook now.

Best wishes,
Benson

Had sent that 5 days ago. I assume that he is either fixing the problem or settling and closing down the site.

Nilam Doctor is no good for the community. as far as i can see he can keep licking  the  foundations ass and act a  freaking  scammer.

subvolatil suggested: simple thing to do is to have every user  filling the form to also add their btc address.

It is not possible to ask user to give their address in fill up form. I don't want to make them suspicious, by asking private information and wallet information at same time. This is not working for me!


a btc address is not private information.

Nakamoto has somehow managed to make people sign up form with details. All he knows is those details that are send by user(Name, sex and age + IP). He neither knows their wallet number nor any other detail. What he wishes is- when a person sends 1 Bitcoin to his wallet, his database automatically updates so that he knows that Aman send 1 Bitcoin from that wallet, Bobby send 1 Bitcoin.. and blah blah blah. He wishes his database(Name, age, sex) to be automatically update with users wallet details. Is it possible?

I do believe that what you are looking for is a callback that talks to your database and makes an entry into the relevant database and then assigns a payto address as mentioned by buysellbitco.in. This will help you get close to A man Smiley

In the event that a callback is not  passed and no unique address was generated, then there are ways to sniff the IP of incoming transactions from the other node, but to get the exact IP, you need to be the first to receive broadcast of the trx. This is not possible. Unless you have a layer around the node that is sending. If you can build a layer there, then IP matching should not be a problem at all.

Well i think what he asked is multiple transaction sent to one  address at the same time .

Tracking the addresses and identifying the user is what i think he wanted to find.

simple thing to do is to have every user  filling the form to also add their btc address.

By the way Benson how are you proposing to find the IP. i did not quite get that.

By surrounding all nodes on the network and tracking where the coin was first sent from Cheesy

That is impossible to do you would need to log each and every node and keep track of every new nodes that come into the network. How can that be done ?

Bitcoin does not fall under currency, security, derivative or pre-paid instrument under the definitions of the current regulatory regime.

This means that absolutely anyone apart from NGO's who are guarded by the FCRA can accept Bitcoins for services/ goods and consider it as barter.
The problems lie in certain types of barter, ie, Illegal stuff, etc.
When the barters happen, they will more likely catch the eye of SEBI rather than the RBI, as most of Bitcoin is not in the scope of the RBI.

What the RBI can do is to issue large warnings and keep people's larger interests in mind. They also have the ability to adopt Bitcoin and start their own Exchanges, Trade points, Collection methods, etc..
People need to get more and more educated about the technology before it can actually make an impact.

Warnings from the government is some thing i welcome. Warnings keeps the total idiots out.

Regarding the  RBI adopting Bitcoin and starting an exchange would  give  a legitimacy to bitcoin and  giving the Legal INR less value. there for they will not  do that.

Firstly i dont  know  who  you asked this  question to  but  he  should  have been  able  to answer  this  question  if  he  know  jut  a  little  about  how  bitcoin  works.


Answer:--
Bitcoin  uses the public ledger system  to  keep  track  of  every transaction  down to  the  last Satoshi.

the receiver  would  need  to  get  the  public address of the  user when filling the  form. the  ip address  would not  be  be seen by the  receiver  from the bitcoin transaction, ckz it  p2p.

there are  are  ways  to track the  users  of a  specific address by doing  comparative analysis  of  the ip logs and the transaction on the blockchain.

but the simplest way to do this is  by having the user  jut add the public address on the form.
the other  was is to  use a browser cookie to track the  user and  have  a varying  amount added to the bitcoin transaction. the  amount being  unique to other transaction would revel the  users  public  address.

I dont understand why they are calling it a currency !!! Bitcoin is more like an asset, I guess.

noops it is not an  asset .

Just had the SSL certi approved..will install it 2day or latest by 2morow. On being told that the passwords would easily be stolen by hackers I had contacted a web security providing company. They have seen the code and "could not find any loop holes".

I dont  think he is concerned with the  loop holes  on the  website at the moment. Security of a  website  can be  compromised  even  with a  simple  0 day. or  even a sql injection attack .  the  problem  here is that  you dont  have  a contingency  plan  regarding security breach, what if your password  file  gets  stolen, you  have only  hashed you password with a SHA1 hash, which can be broken  using  a rainbow table easily. SHA1 and MD5 is not  recommended  any more.  you can use scrypt hash, or  if you dont  want  to  atleast  Salt  your  hashes.

Remember  an  unsalted hash is like passwords  without cloths. 

By the  way  what type of  pentest  did  the company you talked about  do?

 
479  Local / India / Start of National Bitcoin Meetups on: December 22, 2013, 06:57:21 AM
Hi,

I am going to start helping out  with meetups in various cities and towns in India. Will help guide  people  to do the meetups and also try to get video conferencing by bitcoin experts in places where people are just  starting out with  bitcoins.

Will try to organize atleast one new meetup every month. In a new city or town.

An IRC meetup will also start online for  every one  to join in, this may be once in a week or twice in a week. (or if you like it hang out there 24/7, its up to you)

Will start the first announcement of the national Meetup on 31st December. with new location and venue.

Meetup will cover mostly the technical aspect of Bitcoin, its network the bitcoin code, mining, Information security, and Opensource Technology.
investment and speculation talk can be  better kept on the IRC as that platform provides better information.


If you want to start a  meetup, and dont know where to start with, or  you yourself is a noob, and require experienced bitcoiners to guide you then just pm me i will get that  arranged and  we can all participate in it.
