Its really obvious that his only replying out without even thinking on the true motive or essence on whats being written on OP. Going back on where Philippines is just silent when it comes to crypto transaction until it do give buzz into its government since it do already includes huge tx volumes regarding conversion on local fiat to bitcoin and bitcoin to local fiat. For now it is not being prohibited but there are already set up some restrictions on engaging specially on large volumes.
If they don't know what he is replying just correct him and make him understand what is OP had said, this is a forum and we need each other hands so that we will all gonna learn, just help people don't bitch them it is better for us to help guys.
I am proud that I am part of the growing transaction here in our country and has been one of the contributor of the price hike.
