    Those country not listed above do not have a given statement or stand about cryptocurrency. All government that impost cryptocurrency banned  in their country they can still have transaction online. This is the source link of government status for cryptocurrency worldwide https://blogs.thomsonreuters.com/answerson/world-cryptocurrencies-country and the traders I search it myself.

    I think it would be safe to conclude that there are more countries which allowed cryptocurrency either through proper regulations already established or still coming soon. I am then sure that this year there would be more and more countries that will adopt their own versions of regulations covering the transactions on cryptocurrency and maybe also the ICOs. All is not lost in the world of cryptocurrency even if the mainstream media can be painting a bleak picture especially after the big ban made by China. The question is: Is there really a good future awaiting for cryptocurrency? You answer can be as good as mine.

    Bitcoin isn't banned in China, only exchanges are. P2P trading and hodling is still allowed.[1]

    Both Indonesia and Vietnam allow you to buy/sell and trade, but ban using them as a means of payment over their national currencies.[2a][2b]

    Bitcoin is completely legal in Venezuela, though they previously made headlines by cracking down on miners.[3]

    I don't know about the other countries as I am not too informed of their affairs, but these are the ones that stuck out to me.

    I think that’s why I really do believe that there are a lot of potential still for bitcoin in the world. Yes there are some ted lines here and there but the rest of the world is still up for grabs and we can actually have a realistic chance of being able to grab and make a real influence for the cryptocurrency market. What we need to realize that this is still a level playing field and we can really do make a run for it if we play and do our roles right which involves being a promoter as well

    Great post, yeah governments are beginning to take the crypto market more seriously. There is still a lot of uncertainty from both sides on how regulation will evolve and how the market can fit into the current regulatory frameworks, but there has been a lot of progress

    This is a good article, through which we can learn about the policies of countries around the world to encrypt money market.
    A growing number of countries recognize the status of bitcoin, so regulation of the cryptocurrency market is a good thing.

    Great post. It is very useful.  But it's better to know the source of the post. Is there any link to a website which you can provide it?

    Lot of potential is there in bitcoin to rise, only few countries are there to ban bitcoin. Most of the countries are allowing the transactions. Very nicely shared in this article.

    Mr. OP, what you posted is very priceless. I'm so happy that my country didnt ban Bitcoin. The 100k Bitcoin rate is a sure thing this year. Theres a big possibility it will happen. Now everybody should have a Bitcoin or even a small portion in their wallets.

    kudos for the effort that you put into this but i honestly don't see the point of this topic, specially since you have multiple one of these wrong. there are already websites that keep track of these things and update regularly such as the wikipedia page on legality of bitcoin and the politics page in coin.dance

    those country not listed above do not have a given statement or stand about cryptocurrency.

    Good attempt, but limited and outright misleading in a couple of instances. E.g. bitcoin is not banned in Iceland, bitcoin is not banned in China (e.g. individuals are allowed to trade bitcoins), bitcoin is not banned in Venezuela (e.g. bitcoin miners just need to register), bitcoin is not banned in Nigeria, etc.

    Although also limited in scope, the following list gives a better picture of what's going on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country_or_territory

    In addition to the above, it is important to understand that most countries will not outright ban it. They will rather attempt to gain control via the gradual rollout of regulations - an attempt I suspect will backfire, especially when the masses learn about the true power of cryptos.
