in a strange move, Iran has closed the payment gateways of all exchange offices that operated in Iran and treated them like swindlers.
also the owners of digital currency mining machines are guilty and will be dealt with severely.
What could be the reason for all this government pressure on people not to mining bitcoins?
That's really bad. Anyways, we have seen some other countries that have done the same thing this year and also before now. Earlier this year Nigeria was trending when their central bank started closing people's bank accounts for trading cryptocurrency, and also they stopped exchanges in their country.
And apart from Nigeria, we also heard of India and how they are trying to stop Bitcoin and were going to court about the case, although I can't tell the current state now because I haven't been following as of recently. Then there are also other countries that we have heard of that did the same, and now you're talking about Iran. With that said, you have to know that the government placing a ban only stops centralized exchanges from operating in the country. So you can still have access to cryptocurrency.
