Cryptocurrency users in India are using the internet to voice their protest over a recent crackdown by the countrys central bank. Instead of allowing it to be stifled, petitioners call on the government to help cultivate the new ecosystem which can benefit India in various ways.

The petition calls on the country to adopt a framework which will allow cryptocurrency innovation to flourish instead of trying to stifle it. It points to failed attempts by cities around the world to block Uber as an example of why it wouldnt work.

Other countries with similar development can imitate this bold move After all, a strong united community always had a strong voice.
Do you think signing a petition could be an effective way to get government listening?

Anytime the community unite and have their voice heard will always gain attention especially in the media. Governments worry more about winning the next election, so if they feel that it could impact their re-election chances then the petition will work positively.

Another way to combat the Central bank would be for all crypto users to make a loud noise about how they're all going to move their money to a crypto friendly bank. Banks don't like to see millions of dollars going to competitors.

I'm agreeable that to make the government listen and give attention is to unit and make one voice, after all politician worry bout their status in the next election campaign race. It really is a good way to go, however, it would then be dependent on the number of the united voice.
And still 16000 is a small proportion with respect to the whole.
but it was impressive nonetheless.

On another note, it really to gather strong support from huge asset holders with respect to moving assets to competing banks.
it is a great idea though, but definitely hard to achieve.
