India opens new exchange

[gsingh]

Very good news guys  .

India has got an exchange up and running now!

Simple, Safe and Secure Way of Buying, Selling and Storing Bitcoins in India

Uh oh...

[Mjbmonetarymetals]

All Aboard !! 

[beetcoin]

since india hates china so much, let's tell them that the chinese government loves cockblocking BTC  

the indians will most likely end up laying the hammer down on BTC though.

[Kryptox]

I'm surprised it took this long.  India has a lot of talent that can be exploited for developing even further Bitcoin related technologies.  Not to mention, there's huge money there.

[coins101]

good news - a new set of speculators about to push the price higher.

I take it this exchange is so the cheap coding guys that rarely deliver can get paid and avoid the tax system.

[LiteCoinGuy]

there are already 1-2 as i heard but nice news.

[BitcoinBarrel]

I, too, was surprised that it has taken this long for India to jump on board the Bitcoin train. I'm sure a lot of that has to do with English translations, but there is definitely much talent in technology-related fields over there. It will be interesting to see how things develop this next year.

Yes India has import taxes on gold and rather unsettling trade imbalance.  Not sure how they will feel about bitcoin.

Pizzas for BTC? Now is chicken tikka masala time!

Let me get this straight. A small country like India is somehow going to replace the one billion plus population of China. I've been to India, and Josh just got back from India, and we're both here to tell you that... that... that... Upon further review, this just might work. Good call!

The website is a clear rip off of Coinbase site.

The website is a clear rip off of Coinbase site.

That's how Indian programmers tend to work. I've employed several on freelance projects. First thing they do is say "which site should we rip"

Australian Bitcoin Expo Anyone?

Rescheduled - Please see Page 5 for more details.

Date: 18th - 20th November

Location: Melbourne

Venue: Possibly Crown Casino (unsure)

Question: Kansas, Australia or India?

Individuals involved in the Bitcoin movement are called miners and other companies such as Coinmonk Ventures, Unobit Solutions and VentureNext are trying to build the ecosystem that will make Bitcoin an acceptable currency, similar to gold, silver or rupee.

I believe all three are own by the same person.

Introduction
Bitcoin Enthusiast!
Introduction
Hello, I am Sathvik V from Tumkur (Near Bangalore) and I run a small software company on my own and we work on PHP and LSL. I got introduced to bitcoins in March 2013 and since then i have been researching more and more about this and every step I am putting forward has made my research more interesting.
When did you first hear about Bitcoin?
March 2013
What about Bitcoin do you find appealing?
Instant world wide transaction and being irreversible
What, in your opinion, are the main challenges facing Bitcoin going forward?
Stop seeing this as an investment but use it to transact at least in small amounts.
Are you involved in any specific Bitcoin-related initiatives?
CoinMonk Ventures Private Limited - Dealing with physical bitcoins, mining, creation of miners, buy and sell bitcoin in India www.unocoin.com, Global Bitcoin Conference www.globalbitcoinconference.com ...

Now, unless I'm mistaken, I've already connected him to...

Tired!!! Slight error in the above, but not editing out. Venue: Crown Casino DOES NOT equal CROWNCASINOGAMES.COM.

To be clear, I'm not doxxing the Indian exchange, but want to make sure that we/they all know whom we're dealing with.

Great forensic work nonetheless.

If nothing else, an Indian exchange will test the legal status of bitcoin in India.
