To be honest, I don't see the logic behind the government banning bitcoin. You can announce that bitcoin is banned in your country but you can't really ban it. It's in the same situation as other things that are banned. You see drugs are banned in most countries but there are still tons of drug addicts. Banning bitcoin is just as pointless as putting a bitcoin user in a jail. The guy's just trying to make some money from the Internet. I think the sole reason why some government are banning bitcoins is they are at least trying to lessen the hype of bitcoin in their country at least. If bitcoin becomes a thing in one country, their taxation will be much lower than how it is before but it can also still be a good thing for them because there's still tax whenever a person buys something.
