Topic that Bitcoin India Community should be discussing is being first raised by laggard print media for discussions.
Ashamed of our community's progressive thoughts, direction and vision!
You should take it easy and not come down too hard on anyone.
After all is it not the media's job to discuss everything, rumor or not in detail and come up with content to fill their pages?
Out here, people are generally busy with their lives and work to discuss everything under a microscope, not least fabricate articles quoting some financial figures and mostly speculation.
I can also throw up couple of quotes out of thing air, and write a few pages about it, and would anyone be interested?
As for the topic, who is really interested in a bharat coin? Not many. Sorry, don't think i'm a Kanhaiya Lal or an anti-nationalist, but very few of the alt-coins are showing any real progress and most of them are winding down in no time.
What are the prospects of a "Bharatcoin" apart from the fancy name, when btc infrastructure in india itself is pretty much in its nascent stages? How will an alt-coin trade within India alone blossom? People are just starting to use bitcoins here at the moment..
There is a joint committee in India for everything, whether it would actually work towards achieving something of importance rather than procrastinate only time will tell.
The only advantage on these articles in print media is to add to the ever growing popularity of coins in India and that is a good thing.
