Zebpe has expressed hope that in the next year 2021, many institutions and government officials will recognize this, which will help reduce the bitcoin gap. Zebpe says that he will contact policymakers to prepare a healthy regulatory framework on bitcoin. The trend of Indian investors is now increasing to include it in their long term portfolio.
Supreme Court has given approval to cryptocurrency business
Two years ago, the central bank Reserve Bank of India (RBI) issued a circular on 6 April 2018 regarding cryptocurrency. Accordingly, the central bank was banned from providing any services related to cryptocurrencies to regulated entities. However, the issue went to the Supreme Court and in March 2020 this year the court rejected the ban imposed by the RBI on cryptocurrencies. As there are no set rules in India as of now regarding bitcoin and there are no regulations or guidelines related to it so that disputes can be settled in bitcoins transactions. Thus, the decision to invest in Bitcoin is entirely at the risk of investors.urce: www.financialexpress.com
