RE: Some Politicians and Celebrities Don't Like Bitcoin - Should We Be Surprised?

in #bitcoin8 years ago

To take it another level - The Bolivian government arrested 60 people for conducting training/seminars on investing in digital currency.

I do have to say, the company was apparently shady so its probably good they shut-em down, but Bolivian gov't has banned the use of bitcoin and crypto by its people. Crazy.

Sort:  

Wow I didn't know about that. I suppose they can try to ban it but I'm not sure it will work.

Wow...but I expect nothing less from many of those south american governments. It's a different mindset. While many western mindsets range anywhere from "Learn about what you don't understand" to "Be skeptical of what you don't understand" In many of the SA countries such as Bolivia, its automatically "Hate/Kill what you don't understand"
