Bitcoin will not be banned, any country doing so would be essentially banning freedom of choice, I doubt that would sit well with the general public.

authoritarian governments don't particularly care unless they think there will be a popular uprising, which is why some of them are still banning it. the truth is that most of these governments (algeria, morocco, bolivia, kyrgyzstan, and so on) aren't in a position to effectively enforce a ban anyway. the bans are just a deterrent.

still, legislators in major countries can make things a real hassle for us. SB1241 (a bill that keeps getting revived in the US) threatens to define most custodial bitcoin businesses, payment processors and mixers as financial institutions. that will introduce huge compliance and licensing overheads, which will discourage a lot of companies from doing business with americans. the bill would also make it illegal to misrepresent your identity to financial institutions, apparently deterring us from avoiding taxes by using offshore exchanges via VPN.

major global powers keep saying that regulations are coming......i'm not looking forward to it. Undecided

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

I agree with the guy who started this topic. Bitcoin is really have no true competitors and real enemies. It is part of our life today and we must think about how to use blockchain and bitcoin for the purposes to improve more lives!

And it will remain so for a long time.
No government, no parties can effectively ban it and put their hand on it. They would have to ban internet first. Not likely.
That would be the end of free world we know.

Banning internet is useless. Bitcoin in itself is the new Internet. The ignoramus will never know that.

bitcoin's strength is in a lot of things. security (in other words: "nobody can crack it") is just one of them.
the thing about banning it or not, is related to its decentralization and it is called being "permission-less" which in simple terms means nobody can tell you how to use bitcoin or where or when. you can do whatever you like with it.

It is not true that governments cannot ban it. It is just that any sensible government knows that is has so many advantages for the investors and will thus not do that.

The factors you are implying is not going to happen,so do not worry about that,but are you telling that you are living in a free world,i really differ that,you and your activities are linked for ever,do you really doubt that,you internet provider or your smart phone will give your entire details if any government wants to snoop into your activities ,so the good old free world is gone,a long time back.

Yes, I agree with you. The main strength of bitcoin is that it can not be hacked..... was. The threat of quantum computers is now for bitcoin.

It is up to people’s reaction to cryptocurrencies. If people keep using bitcoin and altcoins, they will be stronger. Governments have to accept them then.
right, and I think the government is not have need of banning bitcoin.
they should apply a rule to bitcoin, such as tax withdrawal from bitcoin and it will help the state income.

yes, I agree with you that no one can ban bitcoin or eliminate bitcoin in the country. so far no one can kill bitcoin permanently, until now bitcoin still exists and there are still many people who use bitcoin around the world. so far bitcoin can help people who are distressed or poor people who can not afford to buy their life needs, I think this is one of the reasons the government does not want to remove bitcoin permanently because they pity to see the people who can not afford.

I guess thats the best asset on bitcoin, no one yet are able to crack it or make duplicate on it, well for me its a good thing that no one is cracking bitcoin because if that thing happen then it will be the end of bitcoin, because keeping bitcoin in that era will just be a waste of time if someone can make alot of it by just hacking it or duplicating its amount.

Yes and also the fact that people believe in it and invest in it so much. Bitcoin is a good investment which the only way you lose your coins is if you do not properly secure it. I know it's the best thing I've ever put my money on

Yes, it's all because of the blockchain technology, which is embedded in it. It's just impossible to hack it at this time, that's why it's popular in the world.

the weakest link in the whole cryptocurrency space is the normal user, your wallet and private key are not safe so if a whale get's hacked the whole market can be messed up.

Bitcoini bans are a very difficult situation, but they are easier to legislate by countries, but a few countries seem to prefer to ban Bitcoini as a game of cheating, but that is not the case, I think these countries will understand them for a short time.

Yes you're right and there's no way to crack it. Even if bans are placed, it's not like you can ban the internet and prevent everyone from using it. Government are chasing their tails with this.

Bitcoin is strong as a technology but it has grown so big that at this point, Bitcoin is the only thing that could destroy itself. We don't have quantum computers at this point but whenever it will be there in the market, I am sure, we will be using it to enhance the network security and efficiency. There is no way to crack / brute force Bitcoin network to pull private keys.

Bitcoin has already formed as a huge force in the crypto world of finance. Overcome such power is almost impossible. Even newer and more advanced technology can not do it. Ethereum is a clear example of this.
