The title is completely misleading. It makes it sounds like it was the govt of India who released the app when in fact it was a company in India.
I was surprised because over the past few days all i've been reading from India are bad news towards Bitcoin, and cryptocurrencies as well. Like the govt targeting Bitcoin exchanges to investigate tax evasion, the Tax Department of India going after wealthy Bitcoin users (same goes for traders), and politicians calling Bitcoin a 'ponzi scheme' that should be regulated. Overall, things are not looking good for cryptocurrencies in India
