If this is against the law to be implemented by India about cryptocurrency then this things that they implemented about cryptocurrency in India will be ban. Maybe for now the cryptocurrency in India still works for it is still under some studies on either cryptocurrency could be accepted or not. This is only a matter of time on the decisions about cryptocurrency in a certain country like India.

Actually you can do transactions in fiat currency through person to person but everything is on own risk, and their is battle going on between crypto currency exchange vs RBI against the restriction given to banking system to cancel the account who are doing business in cryptocurrency.

Being a democratic country it is a peoples choice to do what ever they want until it is not illegal activity.

It is very pleasing to see the bitcoin ATM news that has been put into service in a new country. I hope we see in the near future the news that all obstructions on Bitcoin have been removed.

RBI said services such as "maintaining accounts, registering, trading, settling, clearing, giving loans against virtual tokens, accepting them as collateral, opening accounts of exchanges dealing with them and transfer / receipt of money in accounts related to purchase / sale" of virtual currencies should be stopped. 

I think that is bad for cryptocurrencies in India, because it is not a legal tender. Establishing an ATM is a brave step because it is likely to be shut down by the RBI.

Right..I see the RBI clamping down on this move sooner than later. It's still against their stance. But the question remains, how long will they continue to fight it? Wouldn't it be better if they put regulations in place? Crypto is something they cannot stop. Putting a ban on it hasn't stopped Indians from trading cryptos, this the government should know

it's true that with many countries that have established bitcoin ATMs, it will make bitcoin more developed and many people in this world who don't know about bitcoin know better. so I hope that bitcoin can be quickly received in all countries in the world

Definitely it is the best step UNOCoin has taken to bypass the current RBI regulation. If you have bitcoin and other supported cryptos in UNOCoin account, you can simply withdraw cash from this ATM without going though a p2p mode and save a lot of hassles.

This way, Indians will not have to do anything illegal or use their bank accounts. So it's a great step to bypass the legal obligations that India has put in place against crypto.

This Unocoin bypasses the ban legislation on cryptocurrency.

ATMs allow users to deposit or withdraw rupees directly to or from Unocoin accounts.

it adds another practice that bitcoin may spread despite the restrictions of the various parties

This is now old news dude, that ATM is already closed down and even ceased by the police.

UNOCOIN owner even got caught by police for doing this against the rules of India. RBI was against this and even no application or legal approval was taken by UNOCOIN for the installation of this ATM.

There will be no more bitcoin ATM now, the one which got installed is also uninstalled by them.

Aww. If this is true then India is really taking a hard line stance against crypto so I wouldn't be surprised if they really put a total ban. However, I do think that by now, bitcoin is totally unstoppable and that people will take the risk and will try to circumvent government restrictions. We have seen China doing similar things, but it didn't stop Chinese from engaging underground or p2p crypto transactions so India's moved won't deter this growing technology.

I love this daring attitude of Unocoin. Let's see how the Indian government reacts to this. I know with time, they will allow free crypto activities in the country.

You had shared some good news for the people of India. Because the current news of bitcoin investment is based on own risk ,had fear the cryptocurrency traders in India  to inverse.But the implementation of cryptocurrency ATM shows, cryptocurrency is not a illegal in India. India is the mostly popullated Country next to China. If cryptocurrency is legal in India,it made remarkable change in crypto world.

When we do talk about reactions.Im quite puzzled why they do decide to proceed even if the government already set out some restrictions to them.? They are really putting up themselves into trouble.
Basing on the latest news that they are waiting for 2 weeks on what would be their jurisdiction towards crypto.If they would go positive then there would be no problems with these ATM Kiosk.

So a war is going to start between the Indian government and Unocoin. What's the plan BTC for Unocoin because with the state it won't last forever.

[Moonmanmun]

I can only hope and pray that the Indian forces dont step in and make BTC illegal in the country.

[BitHodler]

I like how there are more services standing up to conduct business regardless of what the government's stance on crypto is. In certain countries it may not always be without risks, but what else is there to do?

If you let governments continue with what they have been doing for decades, nothing will ever change. We need the mass to stand behind these actions, because what will the government do? Imprison hundreds of thousands of people?

Governments are out to have the mass on their side, which is exactly what makes them so powerful. If we can get the mass to take a different path for once, it will directly benefit everyone caring about more freedom.

I know I'm probably thinking too far ahead, but with crypto we started a what might be an unstoppable revolution. We can at least try to use it in our advantage......

I'm not sure Whether the news is true or not, but some news has rolled out stating that unocoin directors were arrested for the implementation of the atm. They have mentioned it is just a testing process, but the government authorities were not in a state of mind to accept it.

[becak mesin]

It sounds very good and I would like to hear such this news from other countries after India. It is good for future of crypto currency, as long as this dosen't break the law and regulate well in India, it will contribute much for the crypto improvement. Others probably need to see and adopt India ATM systems for crypto. It shows that Crypto currency goes a step forward.
