I think it is used by some people there, government can't ban Bitcoin as long as there is Internet connection accessibility.

HA.

Man, they like, gave a dude brain damage because he tried to steal a banner. Yes, a banner. What I would absolutely not be willing to do is piss off an totalitarian government like NK; given the amount of government monitoring of internet traffic, and the amount of censorship; I dont think its really worth it to play with something like this in this particular country. I even have trouble, as I type this, finding the legal status of bitcoin in NK ( i thought it was illegal, but I cant confirm that as I actually look).

Even if bitcoin is totally legal, given the legal climate, is it smart to have undeclared financial value in a regime like this? Seems like a way to get mad prison time, IMO, even if you have good intentions Wink
