I think it will still be used. But likely the user base will decrease slowly as it will get harder to use and people would prefer convenience. Be carefull be succes!

I would HODL them. I don't think they would loose a lot of value, bitcoin is decentralizated, besides they can't control it.

Also illegal ≠ imposible. Just play very very safe and smart.

If a lot of transaction was illegal and including BTC it could be banned in my country fortunately it is still acceptable as a currency crypto though.

I will still use it no one will know that you are using BTC you can still trade it here in forum, nevertheless can't guaranteed that you will not get caught using BTC it is only a matter of luck.

It will not depend on whether the Bitcoins is used legally or illegally, It will be banned if there are much interest of people and they will start giving importance to bitcoin over USD I guess or local currency and if people will not pay any tax if there is any in future.

What If Bitcoin is banned in your country will you still use it?

If you use it how will you? How will you exchange it and how will you completely use it as you do before.
First of all, bitcoins became very useful to us in terms of earning and investing money. If bitcoin will be banned in our country, we will lose the capability of earning it as well as making money online. Those people who earn in this kind of job can no longer earn extra money. And i think if its banned, we cant be able to use again and also for exchange.

Don't really think this is possible since there is just no point in banning Bitcoin. The countries that ban bitcoin would just be crippling themselves and their economy. Most countries would just tax Bitcoin instead of taxing it.
I also do believe that the concept of banning bitcoin is quite impossible to happen because government dont have specific reason they could set for them to banned bitcoin in the first place. I would rather see bitcoin as a future of transactions because it offers faster and reliable transaction. It can also be a good thing for people in the process of earning and making profit in the future.

I really agree with you, because in my opinion there is no reason the government forbids bitcoin, we also will not accept if the ban is no clear basis. We should not think of things like that, we better think of a bright future with bitcoin.

What can you do against Government? You cannot do anything against Government? But we can at least stand against government if anything like happen(or we let it happen)?
I agree with you that It is really hard to ban Bitcoins ( I have heard many rumors lately)

If your country banned using bitcoin that is within your country.
You can still buy and sell things online using bitcoin, what difference does that make?
Don't let your country or anyone else stop you from following your dream. You should defy your boundaries.

I will keep using Bitcoin. Maybe with other country SSH or VPN networks. I do not think this will be easy. And I read the possibility of Bitcoin being blocked in my country is 1.1%..

Stupid question mate, I will keep using it online to purchase whatever merchants are selling and of course whatever I need to buy if possible to pay

With Bitcoin and if I ever needed to sell Bitcoin but I couldn't do it in my own country then I'd just try to find a buyer from outside of my country to

Sell them my Bitcoins for dollar and receive it via paypal or credit card, problem solved.

The bitcoin will not be banned in our country because the government accepted now the bitcoin as our daily payment. I can now use  bitcoins to pay our utilities and expenses and also foods.

If it comes to that way, I'll still use it.
As for how to use it, there might a way. But, like that's gonna happen.
A lot of bitcoin user in my country, so, if goverment really think that they could ban it, nah, I don't think so.

No such things as stupid questions, and imho this question is far from stupid.
While a ban in practice wouldn't really be feasible, governments can make it very hard for bitcoin if they want.

To the point where legally exchanging to fiat wouldn't be possible, or that vendors can't officially accept btc no more etc.

Everyone is saying we will all keep using it, and of course most of us will, but this would be a serious downfall for bitcoin if it ever would happen.

Even if it got banned it would not stop being used. Just like illegal drugs people still make, use and sell them but they are just illegal.

This is going to be very hard for me for sure but I am sure just the same that I will be finding a way out of it. There are exchanges that offer USD. I guess that will be a key. I will just find a local wallet that accepts USD and then from USD I will convert it to my local currency. I am afraid this is not yet possible at the moment. Anyway, I would still stick to Bitcoin even if it goes illegal in my country.

If Bitcoin goes illegal in your country everyone would still use it only under the table. By the way, what country are you from? I don't think Bitcoin would become illegal in my country for sure.

It won't be. These what if questions are... pointless. See, even if some countries make it illegal, it will still get used. You cannot technically ban Bitcoin or cryptocurrency entirely because that would entail shutting down the internet altogether, which realistically would never happen. If that did happen, Bitcoin and crypto would be the least of most people's concerns.
