Tell Modi that Bitcoin came out of a Cow. He will accept it. Or give lecture in some temple that Cow milk contains hashes of Blockchain data. People will drink that up like tea..
Sad thing.. our India may be free our mindset are not..

Or maybe tell them that how Bitcoin's original logo is not colored orange, it's "Bhagva Rang" which means Bitcoin too signifies Hindutva. Grin

This game is really funny.

It's a recent article from CoinTelegraph! So without going to the details, I will just quote the exact statement of Tim. He said,

Quote

I thought it was a good move; he is getting rid of corruption and trying to create a corruption-free state, but by blocking Bitcoin, he is creating more corruption and I think that is very dangerous for the country,

Reference: https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-ban-means-india-will-get-more-corrupt-under-modi-tim-draper

Do you think on a similar line? Or is it other way around for you?

On the serious note, I don't think what Tim said is anywhere true and justified. He just made a statement and didn't even gave a reason behind it. Bitcoin atleast at this stage is anonymous which means we might be able to track the addresses from which the funds are moving but tracking the owner of these addresses is not possible. So how can ban on Bitcoin increase corruption?? I think all ban on bitcoin would do is reduce it's usage for normal people like us. Tech freaks, big businessmen, politicians & criminal would still continue to use cryptocurrencies to hide their deeds.
