Can BTC be blocked by government ?

In fact to block bitcoin completely, you need to disable the Internet. That in fact in today's world is not possible)

I agree. Technology is a part of our daily lives today especially the internet. Good Communication leads to good ideas and with good combination of ideas there are good result. I believe that bitcoin is a great product of technology and good ideas.
This creation will only be turned down by turning off the internet which even the government will think that it is not a wise thing to do.

No, bitcoin is everywhere in the web. And the only way the government can stop bitcoin is to disable the internet.

Hello,

I am reading a lot on the internet about the fact that Bitcoin is not stoppable as not centralized.

However what would happen if a government decision to implement DPI blocking of Bitcoin protocol?

Seems it is fairly easy for a government to do so at ISP level... On top of it exchange could be blocked with a firewall on top of all others kinds of bitcoin forum etc...

Thanks for your opinion.

Maybe? Thats why some goverment hate this because they said that this bitcoin is only a fraud and goverment have a fear that someday bitcoin will replace all banks because bitcoin is better than banks and so fast .

I think first of all,the government can not block the btc because all the projects or papers go through so that bitcoin can legally be used anywhere in the world

They have the power to block Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as well but, as long as there would be people supporting Bitcoin they cant stop it. Some countries are trying to block BTC in their countries still people are trading BTC.
