Nepal Continues Crackdown, Two More Bitcoiners Arrested

Whereas bitcoin exchanges and information are prized on other parts of the globe, in Nepal dealing in the world’s most popular cryptocurrency will get businesspeople arrested. After throwing nearly a dozen bitcoiners in jail not long ago, the government is at it again, arresting two others, pushing bitcoin further underground.

In other parts of the world, where innovation is relatively freer and allowed to blossom, names like Ram Dhakal and Purusottam Dhar Tuladhar might be well-known convention circuit stars – gazillionaires much sought-after for their business drive. In Kathmandu and Pokhara, Nepal, those names are splattered online and in print as bitcoin criminals.

Hopefully the arrests will be rare and local instead of a "Global crackdown" on both BTC and the "almost insane" ETH Bubble Game.
To avoid future issues, shouldn't this community do more to "raise the bar" and improve the btc/ICO scene?
