Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

To be honest even I was not aware about bitcoin in 2010, I joined in 2015 and successfully earning bitcoins at a moment, and even in my country the scenario is same as of yours.

Isn't it banned in some parts of India?
I thought I saw a post about it's use is not allowed in certain areas which I find strange.

Are there any Bitcoin ATMs or exchanges in India?  How about members of localbitcoins -- say outside of Mumbai or New Delhi?

Being able to purchase Bitcoin seems to be of prime importance for it to grow in India.

What physical items can be bought with Bitcoin in India?

Merchant acceptance of Bitcoin seems to be the other matter of prime importance.

If I'm not wrong, they didn't ban any part of India, but no mainstream businesses are accepting bitcoins as payments. Also, very less people know about bitcoins and their benefits in India. As of now, bitcoins are used mostly in online gambling, so not many people know about bitcoins in the world itself, not just in India.

I would agree on a certain terms with you, but ofcourse considering the age of this post there has been recent changes and mass exchanges of Bitcoins happening by over 50,000 people in India and over 30,000 actively trading (as per a report by Moneycontrol). I understand this isn't a big number considering the overall population size, but if adoption slowly starts increasing, we may soon start to see it at many places.

Expect people from 3rd world countries to adapt to bitcoin probably a decade late compared to people from 1st world countries.

hello,

There are no bitcoin ATM untill now anywhere in India as per my knowlege. But we can buy from firms such as Unocoin and Zebpay which work like exchanges but only deal in exchanging bitcoin for Indian Rupee and Visa versa.

I have seen the mobile phone explosion in India and how people started using GPRS. 2G/ 3G and apps such as whatsapp and facebook. It was, quite frankly very surprising for me. It started with the young generation taking it up and then slowly it gained mass popularity.

I believe that will be the same case. I know fee people who deals with bitcoin India, even they consider it as investment and they don't use it for payments. I personally came into cryptos  and my first transaction was with doge coin. The reason was doge is cheaper and faster.

I can say that in the next 5 to 10 years we can see a big explosion of bitcoins in India. Especially with the Digital India programme of PM Modi.

That's true I am from India and very few people are using it, they  have heard about it but don't prefer to invest their  money in it as they have fear of loosing it in long run.

there is no doubt about this that India and Pakistan are the to big population countries, but it is also a fact that bitcoin is still not so much popular in these two countries, if the bitcoin is introduced there hope that more people will join the world of bitcoin and the number of bitcoin users will really be increase, although some people from these countries are using bitcoin but there are very limited shops who are accepting bitcoin in their shops,

Yeah bitcoin is decentralized currency and anyone can use it, if they have access to internet then using bitcoin is not a big deal, and they can use even if they don't get support from the Government.

Just to inform everyone.... The governor of the Reserve Bank of India (Raghuram Rajan) has been replaced with Dr. Urjit R. Patel. Rajan was fiercely against BTC, and he closed down many BTC-based ventures in India. I don't know much about the new governor, but I just hope that he will be more sympathetic to our cause.

It's interesting to see how the new governor will treat bitcoin and overall cryptocurrency. I think Rajan was the reason of restrictions on paypal and other such services.

Now let's see how prime minister's monetary schemes like Digital India, Focus on cashless transactions & foreign investment policies takes place. Since there are 75%+ chances of reappointment of current prime minister Mr.Modi for 2019 to 2024 in elections, any decisions will have long-term impact.

I am an Indian, Bitcoin is not that famous in India. People always prefer currency notes to cards, so having a mobile wallet is like far from reach. Only the younger generation is getting to know about bitcoin.
Well, it's just like in my country. bitcoin in my country is not well known, they only say bad about bitcoin if they see

The current minister of the Reserve Bank of India  was the responsible behind driving Paypal out of India and also introducing In INDIA the BITCOINS

i think that it is a really good thing, in my opinion india might become even stronger if people will adopt the bitcoins as their currency

Yeah that's a great news for Indians and the population of India is very high so even is small percentage of people will start using it then it can have a great impact on the price of bitcoins.

Dude, take a look of the age of people you ask.
Bitcoin is born on 2009, just peoples 17 - 35 yo with intensive online activity will know it.
