India hasnt banned Cryptos its fake news.

What Indian finance minister said was they will make regulations so that cryptos arent used for illegal activities. If chocolates are traded for illegal activities you dont ban chocolate.

Plus there is also a committee formed in india to make sure cryptos are regulated and taxed properly plus people are made aware that its a volatile asset and cant be used as currency.

How does this make it a ban ?

The reports of India and China and South Korea banning crypto are misleading, incorrect and misunderstood.
South Korea for instance stated they are not planning on banning crypto outright.
As did India, most countries understand the values of crypto, like Japan and Australia.

At the moment there are both positive and negative reports, just visit the PRESS child board on the forum and read the headlines.

We can see there Australian banks will not stop customers from buying crypto while others are advising against it.

exactly. it's fud. All those articles are overstretching what was said so it's important to visit official statement with this kind of things. Never trust those websites which uses opinion instead of facts or what was said.

Correct unussualfacts30,
we all need to check alternative news sources and get more informed before joining the fud or fomo.
It can be a bit of a pain and it might lead to nothing new but we can learn more or become more confident about making a decision.
The next thing is to find our own reputable news sources.

Just scan the article for quotes from officials and read them. that's all that matters. rest is opinion. If there are no quotes skip it altogether.
