Bitcoins legality varies in different nations and countries. It really depends on a particular country whether its going to be legal or not. Some countries make some rules on how to regulate the use of bitcoin. But there are also some nations that prohibit the use of bitcoin, making it illegal to them. So it can be legal to some countries and illegal to others.
Bitcoin is not illegal thing. Today, many policy makers in the world have found digital currencies like Bitcoin. But some countries think that btc is illegal and block them. But many of them do not make laws or laws of digital currency because digital currencies like Bitcoin. Btc is very good in economic world. Does Bitcoin have to do one currency? Payment instrument? But some countries cannot see that. Or investment assets? But there are also some countries that have legalized bitcoin as a legitimate payment tool for example japan country. I think it is better for us to search the information first before judging something without knowing anything. |

Bitcoin is of interest to law enforcement agencies, tax authorities, and legal regulators, all of which are trying to understand how the cryptocurrency fits into existing frameworks. The legality of your bitcoin activities will depend on who you are, where you live, and what you are doing with it.
I think that Bitcoin is legal in most countries in the world. The problem is that almost everywhere this legalization is quite limited. I am sure this is a temporary thing that will change within the time. |

Bitcoin a superior way of transferring and transmitting value. Anything that has incredible utility like bitcoin is considered revolutionary. Bitcoin is revolutionary and it's very valuable so it's legal.

Now bitcoin is legal in many countries. I think that in the future the whole world will legalize the crypto currency. People should understand that crypto is our future.

Bitcoin is the part of web and it's not doing any harm to people. I can't get why many goverments baned bitcoin and other tokens in their counties. Maybe they just scared of freedom?

In my country, bitcoin is not legal yet. If it is legal maybe in my country will be taxed. However, to legalize bitcoin in my opinion is not easy. Should need preparation to be faced if one day there is a problem in this crypto.

hopefully in Indonesia soon legalized because so many are interested about this digital asset. on the other hand the price of the higher BTC is what makes people more interested.
I hope the government immediately legalize BTC transactions as it has already happened in developed countries. I also hope that many investors will punish this BTC and will further expand

The Blockchain technology has no use for the word legal or illegal as it is one of the discriminations it is tying to fight against and if you have to ask if it is legal in your localities or your country, you can read up on your laws and constitution

Bitcoin is legal in some countries only, such as Japan
but in other countries, no one has been able to legitimize the existence of Bitcoin for the reason that the risk is so feared could make people become poor suddenly, because BTC prices are unstable

Bitcoin is not controlled by any government, but some countries want to regulate it.
It depends on how you apply to different jurisdictions in different laws. Bitcoin is legal in most countries.

Right know there are no governments or financial authorities/organization declare publicly that bitcoin is illegal, so bitcoin is legal.
may be some people would say or other coins are in a neutral field, but it still means legal.

The legitimacy of Bitcoin depends on what your country thinks about it and how it works. In China, Bitcoin transactions have been restricted, but I know that many countries have already legitimized Bitcoin or tried to legitimize it.

Bitcoin is not a company but only a technology which is decentralized. Nobody can ban bitcoin because as long as there are miners around who will mine bitcoin, the network will be operational and anyone can transact using bitcoin. |

Very few countries have gone as far as to declare bitcoin illegal. That does not, however, mean that bitcoin is "legal tender" - so far, only Japan and Belarus has gone as far as to give bitcoin that designation. However, just because something isn't legal tender, does not mean that it cannot be used for payment - it just means that there are no protections for either the consumer or the merchant, and that its use as payment is completely discretionary.
