Chances of Indian Crypto Ban Low Compared to 2019, Says Crypto Veteran
News about the Indian Ministry of Finance circulating a “note” for inter-ministerial consultations of cryptocurrency regulations spurred panic within the Indian crypto community. Worries about the 2019 draft bill proposing a blanket ban of cryptocurrencies and possible 10 years sentences for crypto users had kicked in once again.
In an interview with Cointelegraph, Ashish Singhal, the founder and CEO of Indian cryptocurrency exchange CoinSwitch, said that the chances of the government placing a blanket ban on digital currencies has reduced considerably as compared to 2019.
Singhal said that in 2019, when the draft bill was proposed, the possibility of a ban seemed high due to the lack of support for cryptos from the central bank, the Reserve Bank of India. To add to that, there was a crypto banking ban already in place and things looked quite uncertain, he added.
