These days, a country announcing that they will make bitcoin legal is not as rare anymore. We hear news of this almost every week. It might make us forget that not all countries like bitcoin. There are still those who don’t and have not changed their stance when it comes to bitcoin. I saw a list from investopedia.com of countries where bitcoin is illegal. These are the following countries:
  • China
  • Pakistan
  • Saudi Arabia
  • Tunisia
  • Bolivia
[liBolivia[/li]
[/list]

What took my attention however is Pakistan. Because I know that I had recently read a news about Pakistan and bitcoin and I was right.

Quote
Pakistan is moving ahead with plans to establish a national Bitcoin reserve as part of a broader digital asset strategy. Bilal Bin Saqib, head of the Pakistan Crypto Council, announced the move at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas.

He emphasised that the government’s intention is long term and not driven by market speculation. He stated that once acquired, the Bitcoin would never be sold.

The government plans to launch a national Bitcoin wallet and adopt blockchain technologies. The reserve’s size is unclear, but the move follows the US example and shows Pakistan’s growing trust in blockchain.

I guess the list is now outdated. It shows that a country can and will definitely change their stance on bitcoin. So is your country still against bitcoin?
