the news doesn't read positive to be honest!
it is talking about two things, investing in cryptocurrencies and the blockchain technology! the first one is just for taxation purposes because there has been a large volume (most of which has been fake) on Korean exchanges and the government wants his share. and the second one has nothing to do with bitcoin or even cryptocurrencies. it usually ends with the government creating their own centralized cryptocurrency!

a good news would have been if they adopted bitcoin as a "legal way of payment" so that they recognized bitcoin for what it really is, a currency.

I'm still positive on that day when they accepts bitcoin as a legal way of payment

yeah i didn't mean to say it is bad news. i meant to say it is not that big a deal.
in any case for some countries adoption of bitcoin is like taking baby steps! they first start by talking about banning it then see they can't and there is more benefit in regulating it, then the regulations start and eventually after a couple of years they will have no choice but accept it as a currency.

Don't worry I really understand what's your point mate, I know that we are going through a lot before having a 100% adoption. And that adoption may have a bad news like taxation I think.
