If it really has a big punishment like I will be imprisoned if I'm caught using it then I will not use bitcoin. I will just find another way to have income and be free than suffer because I insist in using something that's illegal. May be I will shift to another cryptocurrency that is not illegal and then gain from there. There will always be a way if I look hard enough.

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... 

[amanojaku]

i never use btc to buy anything
i just keep it and trade to local currency
so if it say to be illegal its okey for me as long as never use it, just keep and trade

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

[Tyrantt]

I think not. I'd rather forget about it then risk anything with the law.

[QuestionAuthority]

No, of course not. No one in my country would use it because everyone here is a law abiding citizen. LOL

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...  

[drwtsn32]

I don't know. I'm not sure yet. It will depend on the strictness of the government in terms of abolishing the currency within the country.
I mean as long as I can't be traced, I will still use it.

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.

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

That's right i will to fight too, i think this is are our freedom for choosing any payment or currency is our want. and the goverment is can't regulate anything like they want. everyone is have a freedom.

I should really have to fight for it until we get the support from our government. Then it would be a great start for bitcoin users to grow more bigger and become useful

[avikz]

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.

[gentlemand]

Is anyone here thinking this through? It would mean there'd be no exchanges and no payment processors. Even if it were legal in your neighbouring country, no business would deal with you in the same way that no one from NY state can use most services.

Even for drugs that's of little use unless you're buying from abroad.

you were indeed correct, if indeed all people that are this in forum think so. Then they would have difficulty in doing all the things that exist in the bitcoin. But I am sure that it will not abandon something bad for them who does really want to be rich, because bitcoin will provide them riches in a short enough time when they did work hard

[ekoice]

i will still use bitcoins even if govt declares it illegal. but in a safer manner, because its the only thing which has given me financial freedom and ray of hope in life. hope it will never be  banned.

[croutonhexagon]

As we know, some country banned bitcoin and it's illegal to use/own bitcoin there. But, i see some people who still use bitcoin even they know the risk.
So, would you keep use Bitcoin if government says bitcoin is illegal in your country? Even if they could spy you on internet?

If that really happened my country (i hope it won't happen), i would still use bitcoin, but i would use tor browser and paid/trusted VPN to do any bitcoin activity.

If Bitcoin Really Banned in My Country Then I Will Exchange My All Bitcoins Into Another Altcoin And Start Using the Other Altcoins To Grow My Money....
But It Is Not Possible Now....

[Viyamore]

Yes, they will not even know that i continue using bitcoin because its anonymously transaction made also it can be tradable on other country's fiat then to exchange fiat to fiat currencies .
But then at first i don't have an idea why other country's don't accept bitcoin on they banned it ,maybe the only illegal way is the crime related underground transactions on market makes a bad effect on the people on a particular country.

uh, I think it's safe to say that if bitcoin is criminalized then so will everything else. they're not gonna add 'apart from bbq coin because it's kinda tasty'.
