Why government announce bitcoin is illegal?

[Rocktop044]

Bitcoin mining, trading, and general circulation is legal in majority of the world.
Only a handfull of governments have limited it's circulation.
As awareness in the potential in this technology increases, and ways of making it safer arises.
It's adoption would increase.

I imagine that may be because of the impact of the BTC value development which has an exceptionally shaky development that makes BTC extremely unpleasant in the event that it is utilized to lead transactions in a few nations with the goal that the government forbids the course of BTC.

it's unlucky you live in a country where they can't understand why bitcoin should be embraced. Or perhaps they understand it too well and want to prevent people from getting into power

[Mariela]

Simple..
Because they can't get money for tax or failed to trace bitcoin holders for additional value added tax.

[nagobinga]

maybe in some countries it is illegal but I don't know whether in Indonesia it is illegal or not because bitcoin is very easy to break currencies in the real world until this time the price of 1BTC has continued to rise.

This is really normal that government announces that bitcoin is illegal, because every business in the country where it is operating ,should ask government permits , so that it will recorded as legal and legit business operating in the country, if government does not recognized cryptocurrency and bitcoin is illegal  opereations.

I think government announce bitcoin is illegal because they wanted to destroy it. They also know that if people knows that it is illegal there is a chance that the worker here will be decrease because they will scared to our government.

I think they don't know all the things and the benefits of having cryptocurrencies in a  country.  They just know the bad side or the negative possible outcomes of allowing cryptocurrency in their country.

bitcoin is still illegal in some countries, bitcoin is still illegal in my country. but if the government has not banned or has not closed all sites to access bitcoin, in my opinion there is still no problem. even though the government says bitcoin is illegal, but if we can still get it and use it in internet, its no problem.

[mikaeltomcruz12]

In my opinion it is because our government are scared and  to prevent losses maybe also because of the news about bitcoin scam. And some are using bitcoin for illegal purposes like unregistered online casino's.

This news is not new. There are many countries that illegalized it and there are countries that openly receives it this has been going on the past 9 years. Bottomline is for nine years it has stayed and continue to grow.

This is because the government can not regulate bitcoin. Therefore they simply forbid it. This is the case with all financial instruments that can not be regulated.

[NelfiNovita]

because bitcoin is indeed banned in some countries and few countries can accept bitcoin. the government prohibits bitcoin because bitcoin is heavily used for illegal things because bitcoin is also a means of payment in the form of online transactions so it is very easy to use it. Another reason why the government claims that bitcoin is illegal is that they fear that bitcoin can replace fiat currencies so that fiat currencies are no longer valuable and this will have an impact on a country's finances. they reject bitcoin because bitcoin is not taxed

[Yakapo]

Cryptocurrencies are not accepted by the government across the globe. While China has blocked crypto exchanges, U.S. banks are steadily declining cryptocurrency purchases.

I can give you reasons but many have already given you the answer. But simple answer could be governments don't like decentralization. It takes power from them which they don't like.

[Coongcoongler]

They simply do not believe that bitcoin can be used freely and they are afraid of the fact that anyone can use it from conducting online transactions of such illegal activities.

[MadisonWood1212]

Because the governments of these countries can not see the value that Bitcoin can bring to their economies. They are afraid that when Bitcoin can circulate in their markets, the risk of inflation and abuse of coin on the wrong things.

I don't know why governments do such things and there are no solid reasons they have given to the world for baning and making certain restrictions against Bitcoin to use as a digital currency which is really unfair for a great invention like Bitcoin and a technology like Blockchain and my main concern is if something happens to major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum and other how many will have to suffer the losses because even some say sill the crypto community is small we see a considerable amount of people who invest in the market so lot of individuals will loose everything

Government holiday announced that cryptocurrency is not legal because many works like gun smuggling and drugs smuggling done using cryptocurrencies as they can't be traced so government is also banning cryptocurrencies is in many countries but nothing to worry in future they will unban it too.

[Theackdyo]

bitcoin will maintain to move even though there are nonetheless many countries that also claim unlawful, i'm positive at some point bitcoin may be time-honored in all international locations seeing that bitcoin is a technological strengthen .
