I am not sure what is the exact scenario in my country as I have never heard that it is banned or illegal but people are using it and I am using it too as there is no official announcement yet.
that's right. many countries have not yet had any stance about bitcoin. and i think it is mostly because bitcoin is not being used that much in many countries.
but one thing is for sure, if you are earning bitcoin through an illegal channel and holding it that is still illegal any place in the world and it doesn't matter what rules they have.
