stop the FUD. --------- MyCoin is 'classic Ponzi scheme' but bitcoin shouldn't be blamed"There has undoubtedly been confusion in the media amongst the public about the scheme," Arthur told IBTimes UK. "Bitcoin trading was just used as a front for the scheme, when in reality bitcoins were never traded - the investors never held bitcoins or any other investments at all. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/mycoin-classic-ponzi-scheme-bitcoin-shouldnt-be-blamed-lawyers-say-1487740

A scam happening in fiat does not get fiat banned. its true that bitcoin allows such scams possible, but people should be careful while investing. Its not the currencies fault.

By following this logic, fiat should have been banned a long time ago, among other things.

Hong kong was saying this around the same time last month I agree they need to make up their mind shame others do not see that. It matters not either way to me and my way of life.

Has it really been banned in Hong Kong? But using bitcoins isn't illegal unless all are using it for money laundering and gambling. Bitcoin is much more secure than other currencies.

If it hasn't already, it probably won't. Given the current regulatory climate there, there is no reason why it would be banned. It has the information given on the blockchain and it is not really anonymous, so that would not be likely.
