We are talking about a country that tried to ban internet and computer (three decades ago). So it is not surprising that they are trying to ban cryptocurrency. And from what I have heard, as a first step they have blocked the IP addresses of various online wallets and cryptocurrency exchanges. These idiots don't even know that blocking IPs don't work nowadays. Anyone can access these sites using a VPN or a web proxy.
I think that the government understands everything, but their prohibition will have the character of a serious lever of control over the citizens of their country, as a very strong deterrent, if, of course, we are talking about criminal prosecution. Many people will of course take risks and use different methods to engage in activities in the cryptocurrency market, but there will also be people who will be afraid of breaking the law.
