I think most people are not looking at the main point here, they are probably looking from the protesters point in which they feel btc is not effective to their cause, well to me, I think through this action by the government of that country, it shows how effective btc can be an alternative to fiat Currency especially when the government of your country is trying to impose some restrictions
In the past few years the governments around the world are trying to silence their wrong doings and it is worrying to see that a ruling government have the ultimate power to silence and shut down everything you have and own because you voiced your opinion against the government in the form of protest
. Glad that we have a decentralized currency that cannot be confiscated by these irresponsible government.
