Make Bitcoin illegal in most country will trigger a Streisand effect, and I think more peoples will look in it.
I'll use it even more definitively.

if it happens in most countries (which is unlikely by the way) the price will take a huge hit and it will become hard to keep holding bitcoin for a period of time. but after that things will grow.

but to answer OP, i will continue using bitcoin even if my government says bitcoin is illegal because that would be a stupid decision (which they have never made it so far) and nobody can stop me from using it Smiley

I would definitely continue to use bitcoin if it became illegal in my country. Honestly I would probably use it more.
I think now, even in some countries bitcoin has been banned for use but you could see the deployment of bitcoin is still ongoing and it does not give a great effect on the bitcoin. although bitcoin illegal though but if bitcoin still has a price

yeah, there are countries that ban bitcoins right now to be honest, i think that it is not a good thing to do because if bitcoin takes over then that country would have trouble

Maybe I will continue using bitcoin even if it start be illegal in my country but if more and more countries does not allow bitcoin to be used then the number of people using bitcoin will decrease very deep then bitcoin will be useless and maybe I will stop using it.
Depends on the situation or level of banning they implemented on bitcoin. I mean, if they do ban it as in physical use of bitcoin, then of course I'll still use bitcoin, only that I won't be able to convert them to fiat anymore.

However, if they completely ban bitcoin even just simply visiting bitcoin-related websites, then I don't know. I may use VPS to bypass and not be traced for doing so.

Exactly it will all depend on the regulations applied of the said country on bitcoin. Like I stated in my previous post, if it was just stated as illegal but no regulations about it then people can still use bitcoin.

If there's a regulation about bitcoin being banned on the said country, withdrawing and converting bitcoin to their respective fiat will really goes now in a hard way.

In my country, using torrents to download movies and TV programs are illegal. But no one seems to bother about the ban. Almost everyone is using torrents to download whatever they want. The same will happen with Bitcoin as well. Even if the government bans it, no one is going to give any importance to it. Business will go on, as usual.

I think i have to fight for our rights lol. They cant just consider bitcoin as illegal even if it is used in legit ways like mining amg shopping but if do so then i have no choice at all

Well, it is always stated that "our rights ends when others rights starts"... Therefore, if government has a plan, then we have nothing to do with it, we have no choice but to follow, but since most of us is resilient enough, I think even if it is declared as illegal I think we will still pursue to collect bitcoin... There is always a way for things that could possibly make us alive or survive in life...  Smiley

Yes , for me as long as we keep on using it on legal ways then there would be no ways that bitcoin will be considered as illegal by our government and i think they will support us instead

Yup... I hope no bank heist or any crime in the internet that could involve bitcoin... That way there is no reason for the government to monitor or ban the use of bitcoin... For now, I think it's just fine even if the government won't support bitcoin, as long as they are not planning to  impose harsh move against bitcoin...  Smiley

Absolutely but if the government will monitor bitcoin then i think there would be no problem for that. It only means thst they are starting to recognized bitcoin which is good for us
Monitoring bitcoin to a certain extent would be fine. Extra verification for transfers over a million dollars or maybe over 1000BTC would be fine. Point is if there will be some government intervention to all the bitcoin related things, it has to be bad. But personally, I feel I will be keeping on using bitcoins even any regulations will be implemented by my government.

for me it depend on my own life's risk. if I found enough ways to keep my self anonymous and untraceable from government I may still use it. but if I found I can't hide my self and possible can get jailed I would probably quite using bitcoin..

i would be still using it, it is not an illegal think and it shouldnt be banned i think
You can't say it shouldn't be. gov can do anything. they can ban bitcoin if they found that bitcoin is becoming a threat for their Banks, businesses and their own currency.

It is not illegal in my country so I would still use bitcoin as long as I can.  I could do buy things with it online and I couod also pay my bills using bitcoin.  It would not be declared illegal because in our country banks, 711 store, and cash remittances were using and acknowledging bitcoin as mode of payments.  If ever that there would be a time that they would ban it, I would comply but there should be alternative for it.

Like Russian is not really banned bitcoin from their country, and that is a just argument and I think the government will think for a twice for banning bitcoin because that is just becoming a useless thing and from the Russian cases, we know the government will more concerned about their civilian's needs.

If a country government bans bitcoin, I believe their people should also stop using it. Most governments are just trying to find loopholes and trying to trap people in paying fines if the rules are broken. If your country is such then you should stop using bitcoin immediately. The government will keep a tap on these people not following their orders and then nab them when the accumulated sum becomes large and ask for a huge fine.

No my trust in my country is greater than my trust in bitcoin, but depending on the country I could understand if you vote yet. My country wouldn't ban it without a good reason or atleast that's how I feel.

Government policy does not mean anything, they just say without acting. so I was free to use bitcoin, although bitcoin deemed illegal.

Yeah but imagine getting punished I'm not sure yet. It depends what the law would say and how high the punishment would be. I'm all for freedom but I don't want to risk going to jail or getting a big fine

yes I would break the law and I would continue use bitcoin as my country's currency doesn't allow me to earn money but bitcoin allow to earn money by mining, faucet, trading and by many other, so even if it becomes illegal I would continue using bitcoin

Of course. As a legit citizen of your country, you have every right to make a complain and be vocal about it.
But still, if the government says so, it is an ultimatum especially in a non-democratic country.
We could always petition the house and make a huge widespread deal about it. Bitcoin isn’t just some fake currency and the government needs to see that. They also need to see that it can be used more for good than for bad.

Most of the governments will never allow bitcoin to be legal in their country. Because Government wants to control the power of people. So they will not allow free distribution of money to their people. Instead they will try to capture the source of it and enjoy it's benefits.

However, due to the technological complexities, most of the government is not bothered by bitcoin. That's a good thing.
I think they will. It has already shown great promise, even in lands where bitcoin is illegal, people are still using it to make money because they need to live. Where there’s a will there’s a way. Bitcoin is the way out of poverty for many people.
