Because to my knowledge there are several countries in southeast asia that have not legalized bitcoin. And what is our endeavor for bitcoin in southeast asia to be legal like any other country (which has legalized bitcoin).

Will the impact be positive or negative?

Very possible to legalized bitcoin but not this time due to severe famine in different parts. Economic shortage needs to be solve. Rampant corruption needs to unveil to make things smooth than before. Repairing sometimes difficult than the original creation. Most likely the treaty's of countries is an open door to recognized crypto.

that's very possible, in fact just a couple of day past, I read that Malaysia is now getting stronger into blockchain technology, which I think the their government over that nation are now widely opened unto it. Not only that together with Japan, China, Korea, vietnam, and Philippines are also now aware of blockchain or digital currencies.

I really hope that Indonesia can legalize Bitcoin later on, and unfortunately our government is not ready to legalize it, because the Bank's competition against Bitcoin, often issues Issues to drop bitcoin in everyone's eyes, but all bitcoin users in Indonesia make a breakthrough, so the Indonesian government can accept and legalize Bitcoin as a digital currency ..

If your country accept the Bitcoin to be legally used by the people in their country at any time they will definitely face lot of problems and need lot of solution for that so legalizing is not a easy thing to do if your country legalize it they can definitely be a good economics thinking country in the world.

I live in one of the country in Southeast Asia and it has been legal here to use Bitcoin especially on paying our bills and buy loads. I dont know with my neighboring countries but it has been useful to us here the use of Bitcoin for fast payment and settling our billing accounts.

Mostly economic country like Singapore they usually Legal bitcoin because of the help of bitcoin in there economy growth and i hope my country also which is Philippines will be apart of growing of bitcoin growth.

- Of course, the legalization of Bitcoin can help the economy of a country when the government can collect taxes from activities around bitcoin, so some countries are starting to accept bitcoin but the governments of these countries have made the wrong calculations. Because even if bitcoin is legalized, every user will not use bitcoin widely in everyday life, they will not use it as currency or payment method, that will waste their bitcoin, while if they store their own wallet and use bitcoin to invest, they can get more profits and are not afraid of tax issues when the government doesn't know they are use bitcoin

In my country, high number of citizens are already aware about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, however, it was not formally or legally announced as a new type of industry to consider in the country, it was also not restricted to the community.

Day by day bitcoin will be accepted in every country, this is my dream. India is a country in South Asia, if I am not wrong, they banned bitcoin, and again they open the door for the bitcoin, At this moment, India is trying to pull bitcoin under regulations. So, I think other countries in south Asia will accept bitcoin within three years. This is just my prediction about this issue.

The status of Bitcoin in Asia is still legal, but in some countries the statistic is legal and its use is limited to assets and is equated as a commodity that can be traded, but cannot be used to make direct purchases.
 but many countries in Asia have begun to open up by facilitating bitcoin users to be used as legitimate payment tools.
 we can see in the future that many countries may have begun to allow the use of bitcoin to be used as a legitimate payment instrument.

Rumors about Japan considering to approve ETF was alreadyd denied also Japan is asking more than 50% for the tax from the crypto investors. Bicoin can be legal but the fees are terribly terrifying. Asia can be the first to adopt crypto since regulations are already working on some countries.

I live in south east asia and I still can use my bitcoin, actually own bitcoin is not prohibited in my country. There is an exchange site called indodax which I can use to convert my bitcoin to fiat. Basically there are no money except rupiah that allowed to use in my country. Other South East Asian countries such as Singapore actually a good environment for bitcoin, the monetary authority of singapore clearly articulated as early as 2013 that they do not intend to intervene in any transactions or commercial decisions related to bitcoin. I live in indonesia and I am sure that bitcoin has good future in my country since my country is in form of republic and the citizens has big role governmemtal.

I believe that Bitcoin will get legitimacy in Southeast Asia. Bitcoin is becoming very popular day by day. This is creating many of our workplaces. It also offers many opportunities. Considering all these aspects, I believe that Bitcoin will get legality in Southeast Asia.

Like most the governments and central banks are really cautious when it comes to cryptocurrencies. But its moving-more investors are coming into play and the situation is looking up!

no one can find out whether bitcoin will become a legal and valid currency in southeast asia, one day it will certainly be because bitcoin was created using the advancement of technology and times and for that future bitcoin will be needed by everyone

[jimskiy]

Maybe is needed about two or four years later for bitcoin become legal transaction in Southeast Asia, many negative news about bitcoin and make it have effect for bitcoin become legal transaction, we hope bitcoin could grow up and become legal at southeast asia.

[regarcigar]

in my opinion this is legal. It seems to be a scam because of different opinions and perceptions but the Bank has not really changed its mind about anything else.
In the Philippines, banks and remittances accept bitcoin. But there is no store available. If there are several, it doesn't consume much at all because getting and producing bitcoin is very difficult today.

That’s enough answer for people here not to expect big thing from bitcoin this soon,all of the issue above must be answered first and must be given priority before facing cryptocurrency

How can we expect people to enter and investing in crypto while their family is starving?when their government are facing economic crisis because of the corrupt politicians?i guess this is enough argument to accept that bitcoin will struggle more to climb the highest value again

[xabre]

With situation where bitcoin always got negative news maybe less hope for getting bitcoin will be legal transaction at Southeast Asia, just few country in Asia have legal bitcoin as transaction but many country have close their opportunity make bitcoin become legal transaction, we need support how to make bitcoin and altcoin become legal transaction in Southeast asia by giving positive news about how using bitcoin as transaction will be easy and faster.

Will the impact be positive or negative?

Bitcoin has the potential to have a major impact in Southeast Asia, in this case it is likely that there is no access to banking to bitcoin and a large market for sending money. Although the Bitcoin system in Southeast Asia is mostly still primitive, such as, the Philippines, Indonesia and Vietnam they have better opportunities for the Bitcoin system market, this country is the country with the most Bitcoin populations in Southeast Asia.
Example:
The Philippines has a very developed Bitcoin system at this time, the Philippines also has a lot of Bitcoin exchanges that have been developed by a professional team and have several merchants who can accept Bitcoin. for payments, remittances, and alternative banking tools, this is the same as Vietnam and Indonesia, for this it has a very positive impact on Bitcoin.

In SouthEast Asia Cryptocurrency is not legal but its not illegal too. Rules are still formed in India and govt doesn't understand how crypto works so they are studying everyhting carefully. In future i don't see Crypto Getting banned in india but there would be serious rules to follow.
