Is it legal to earn and hold bitcoin ?

[phreaky]

Of course its legal why would it not be legal, there is nothing wrong with holding the bitcoin or earning it.
I think that even if people will make this illegal it will still be used a lot for sure.

i think that still legal, because this is not only adult can earn and hold it
even a teenager can do it the same of adult, and there's no age or hold restriction to use bitcoin right? and using bitcoin isn't a crime except how you earn the bitcoin

What if a user earns the bitcoins from a gambling website's signature campaign? It would be still considered illegal cash as the address sending him bitcoins is a gambling website. Hence, it doesn't even depend on the source and if it's illegal in a user's country and if he is caught exchanging it, he could face legal charges.

If the Bitcoin is illegal in your country then I suggest you to don't Hold Bitcoins because it can be a disaster for you if the Government knows that you are using Bitcoins.....

i think there are so many activities that are illegal but still we use to do that. for example gambling which are illegal in our country still people do gambling. drinking is illegal but still people use wine. so i think bitcoin is illegal but it have no such a bad effect of the society therefore i like to keep it continue.

It's illegal only in 4 countries of which your country is one of the 4. I don't think you should keep trading in bitcoins then unless you aren't trading them or selling them via bank or PayPal. If you are just holding, you may need to exchange it for real cash which is again risky.

Bitcoin earned a controversial reputation among government officials, who were trying to get them under control. Everything has just begun, and the government wants to understand what cryptocurrency and make the appropriate legal basis.
Government agencies are concerned about the hidden meaning bitcoins because they can be used anonymously, and as a result, there is a potential for money laundering. In particular, the authorities bother currency decentralization

All this suggests the question: Is Bitcoin currency is legal? The answer is yes, but depending on what you are doing with it.

Yes it's very safe your bitcoin in this sites. But you try another one. Xapo. You can download on Playstore if your phone is Android and if your phone is IOS you can download also in Apple store. Because It is true that some countries have banned or restricted the use of bitcoin, but fortunately the internet technology does not know frontiers and there is no way to prevent us from use bitcoin. Because bitcoin is the best way to earn a money without spending a real money.

Off course is it legal why would holding and earning bitcoins be illegal i don t think you know allot about the bitcoin, the only difference is that bitcoins can
easily been used for illegal activities because he cant be tracked so they can buy allot of things with it you know. Other ones will only have profit with it because they will pay more.

[JessicaSe]

Everyone of us are earning and holding it and I think that it doesn't make it illegal unless you are not a criminal and using it for criminal activities.

It is risky to continue hold, but as long as you don't withdraw it then i can say that you are a little but safer. I'm quite surprised why your country has banned bitcoin when bitcoin is completely legal to use, it has nothing bad. If you can convert bitcoin to another cryptocurrency for example Litecoin or Ethereum then I don't think it's illegal for these coins.

read to thread clearly,OP stating that in his country bitcoin was considered as an illegal thing,you can't just change the rules and justify yourself just by your opinion,if rules say using bitcoin in certain area is illegal then it's illegal,and keep in mind that it's only in OP's country not another because bitcoin still accepted around the world

[BlackPanda]

strange people who say this is illegal. holding bitcoin is the right of each of the users of bitcoin. holding bitcoin will not harm others. and a big mistake when there are people who say that this is illegal !!

Yes bitcoin is widely used and accepted in most of the countries, and that doesn't make it illegal, and I am pretty sure that many more countries will start supporting bitcoin in future.

i can't understand how this OP say that bitcoin is illegal from their country are you somewhere who doesn't have free internet access? but if that is possible this forums will also not accessible for just like north korea they have control with internet if that is your case we can understand that bitcoin is illegal but if you have access no one can trace you if you already holding a coin and already have existing wallet you can exchange it your money and transfer it to your account.

dont leave it then wow...
you know if you are careful they wont get any evidence that you are using btc or something.
Dont care about it man,BTC is legal all over the world,making it illegal is just stupid.

[leonix007]

I heard some guy complained that customs official at some English airport searched for bitcoins in his luggage and asked him: "Where did you put them? What?! The bitcoin! Where is it?!"
I don't think that custom official had any idea what bitcoin looks like. And all of that because he was wearing some bitcoin t-shirt or something.

I couldn't stop laughing when I read this, you made my day Bro Hazir, anyways, its really shows how dumb people are banning such currency, for me it only shows how difficult and a desperate governments are to control illegal activities within their areas or countries, are they considered the good side of bitcoin for their people?
