The word unregulated doesn't means illegal.If something is not under the control of government it does not means that it is illegal.Let us talk about crypto's.In many countries it is not legal as well as illegal but still many exchanges are working with it and people are using it.So unregulated market is neither legal nor illegal.
the market cannot be regulated by any country, market law is as long as there is still demand, it can be ascertained that buying and selling bitcoin will always be there, and bitcoin is not a violation of the law so buying and selling bitcoin wherever I feel is not a problem because the system is online with the bank, indeed many countries do not want to recognize bitcoin but they even want to apply taxes so that bitcoin will always be in the trade. Thats true, but if without regulation of course bitcoin market will be considered a black market because it is illegal because it does not have a clear legal law? even without regulation though the market will continue to run, but regulation on the market will give an official image and not illegal impression.. exactly . when unfamilliar people hear and see cryptos they instanly think that it is a scam or illegal due to the reason that cryptos arent yet regulated by the government but if ever the situation can be reversed i think those unfamilliar people will now embrace cryptos because they see it as a real product . yet nowadays there are few countries that consider crypto as illegal but most country are willing to support crypto even it its not officially regulated by them . |

Crypto illegalization depends on what country it is. So even though its legal for you to acquire crypto, if you want to buy something or send some of it on those people who lived in a total ban crypto then that would be useless. And also, here in my country, you cannot establish a company if you arent a citizen but you can open a bank account.
Knowing what are the certain rules for that country will help. You need to identify and must follow the law if they have any rule of law regarding owning, transacting and trading with crypto's. IMO as long as there's no direct law about it, there's nothing wrong with that. |

Yeah as long as they don't know your identity, then you won't experience any problems using bitcoin right? after all the market that has not been regulated yet does not mean illegal right? unless there is already a special rule about crypto, then we can determine whether it is illegal or not |

Comming from a 3rd world country, many opinions around but not certain. The country gov. doesn't have official statement about crypto. There is a law that you cannot own a bank account abroad and that you can't own stocks outside of the contry. But i think crypto doesn't fit into stocks sector. What are your oppinions?
Certainly right because if your country has no regulations or other law applied towards crypto then for sure you are safe in using crypto.the problem will occur if this crypto will be used into other country’s i mean you will be going to that certain country that has been banning this currencies Crypto illegalization depends on what country it is. So even though its legal for you to acquire crypto, if you want to buy something or send some of it on those people who lived in a total ban crypto then that would be useless.

Yeah we can open a bank account from crypto since our country has nothing against cryptocurrency,and i will not try sending this to some place that restricted this coins |

The crypto market exists in cyberspace by using the internet, meaning that transactions will not be known by anyone and do not violate anything. Becomes illegal if transactions in a country prohibit the use of bitcoin but are used for payment or open trade. If in a country that legalizes crypto, of course there are no problems. |

If bitcoin is illegal on your country , you can still use crypto only online because country or a government rather dont hold the online world , they dont hold bitcoin but its possible that they can ban some sites within their network or within the countries local ip . there are also sites that are illegal online and you can get into some serious trouble if you will insist to use and visit them . |

If bitcoin were illegal in the country then you must obey the law with your government because if you have been caught of course you must punishable by them. So, you don't have anything to do if illegal in your country unless you migrate into another place were bitcoin was allowed to use. |

the distinction between illegal and unregulated is a bit unimportant if you are using btc for it's initial purpose, which was to remove the government from the financial equation. if people want a secure, government regulated financial tool, why not invest in stocks, bonds, certificates of deposits, etc?
The hands-off approach to crypto by most governments, meaning we are meant to self-regulate and have no one to complain to if we are ripped off by a hacked exchange or some hacker, but that's the price we pay for some semblance of financial freedom.
i feel that the governments won't ever officially make btc or alts illegal as long as they can tax it as soon as you try to convert to fiat.

It's really quite complicated you are your bank if we talk about cryptocurrency and you can move it anywhere in the world and this makes cryptocurrency so unique for us, that is why the government cannot make a final decision on how to explain or define cryptocurrency, and that is why they don't like, government don't want something they cannot define or control. |

I think it is only illegal if there is a law that makes unregulated market illegal. The crypto market in my country is still largely unregulated but the people are free to use and trade any cryptocurrency from both local and international exchanges. Some countries have already imposed their own regulation to curbe some illegal activities and protect their people financially.

If bitcoin were illegal in the country then you must obey the law with your government because if you have been caught of course you must punishable by them. So, you don't have anything to do if illegal in your country unless you migrate into another place were bitcoin was allowed to use. If a country bans Bitcoin, it can be interpreted in many different ways. A few examples are: 1. Bitcoin can't be used as a legal tender: In countries such as India, Bitcoin can't be used as a form of payment. But that doesn't mean that the possession of Bitcoin and trading of Bitcoin to fiat is illegal. 2. Bitcoin trading is illegal: In countries such as Bangladesh, you are banned from trading your BTC to fiat. But the possession of BTC as such is not a punishable offense. 3. Possession of Bitcoin is illegal: I don't think any country is having such a rule as of now. It can't be implemented anyway. What I wanted to say is that the laws should be clear. |

Market is not regulated, therefore it's not illegal nor legal.
Enjoy using bitcoin without worrying that you might break some law, but in the bad side, you won't get protection as well.
You are like using bitcoin in the early phase of its existence.
I'm in a developing country, and crypto is not yet properly regulated but now that I witness lots of scam, I want it regulated for it to grow.

It must be admitted that almost all in the third world or developing countries that the crypto arrangement is unclear, because the country itself may also not fully be able to fully adopt the advances in digital technology. so they themselves have not been able to determine whether crypto is acceptable or not. so that clearly means that they are also difficult to determine legal or illegal. as long as there is no determination it can be interpreted that crypto becomes legal.

It seems like what you have told a lot has happened to the developing world, there are still many who have not received developments about crypto so it is too late to make regulations that can regulate it. but indeed, if there is no regulation, this is clearly illegal. because crypto users need definite protection, so that it doesn't become chaotic in the future. |

If you live in a country where crypto is totally banned, then acquiring and holding bitcoin or any other coin is illegal for that matter, having a total ban and having restrictions are two things entirely, if it is not regulated, then there is nothing to worry until they come up with some sort of regulation in the future. You cannot establish a company dealing with virtual currency if it is unregulated, until there is any sort of instruction from the ruling government. |

How could we say simply non-regulation marketplace is illegal? Decentralized market contains bitcoin, ethereum and many altcoins, will you say these coins are illegal and you are not using too? I am not sure what is your problem and why saying that it is illegal. There are bad activities happen on blackmarket we can consider that alone illegal. We should not say everything as illegal. |

The whole notion of protecting the people by the government is just a big fat lie, if they want to curb the scammers they can very well do that, the people who invest in bitcoin and the entire market know what they are doing, the government must curb alternative investment platforms in the name of bitcoin to protect its users and not the market altogether claiming that they are protecting them which is a bull shit argument to make. |

The guy above is only confuse , based on what i read he only means that crypto needs regulation so that it can be more acceptable and will look more legal on the public . this is what i also think when crypto is already fully regulated just like fiats where every people in the world will not doubt on crypto anymore but for now cryptos are not yet regulated but this does not mean that they are already illegal . |

Everything is legal, until the government officially imposes a ban, it is not legal, at the moment bitcoin has no ban, but it is still not in the national government. It is recognized that it is money.

Exactly. Without law stating prohibition of using it makes it still allowable or legal. Just like generally speaking, there’s a lot of bad activities being performed everyday but as long as there is no law stating it is prohibited and punishable it remains legal. Here in my present location it is illegal but foreigners can open bank accounts. |
