Would they limit the internet to take down cryptos?

[TOP_ETH]

In my opinion, this situation will not be taken by the government because the project is so large and the results are fairly large and will also grow one's economy to support someone to progress and be successful, maybe the government will not limit

[MrSpasybo]

Limiting the internet is not a good countermeasure against cryptocurrencies, because:
+ If the government slows down or disconnects the internet, all activities of the country will be affected. Blockchain will continue to operate as soon as there is internet available;
+ If the government blocks websites, crypto forums, exchanges ..., the crypto community can still access with fake VPN software;
+ The effort to limit the internet requires a great effort but not great effect, affecting the image of governments, they will become dictators in the eyes of the people;

So governments are not trying to restrict crypto, they seek to develop CBDCs to make it an alternative to crypto.

For what?
If you are thinking that the internet is the only big matter for crypto, it is absolutely wrong.
Limiting the internet means that you limit the era development of technology. There are many industries that use the internet, not only crypto. SO, the government will not take this decsioon

[mohdelayo]

What do you think would make the government do that? I mean what is it with them and crypto that will make them go to this kind lf length? Even if some government do a thing like that, it can only be within their territory which people will still find their ways around. Crypto has come to stay, the world is only going to embrace the technology the more...

[I-Bit]

Yes, the limit of the internet will make the difficulties in crypto. but I don't think it will destroy the crypto world. We will have always crypto but it will be harder to improve it without the internet. So, the internet is a big part of the crypto industry, mate.

what would happen if they limited the internet, banning or limiting access to crypto related sites.
no transactions would be possible anymore ... what do you think ?
would governments take these steps ?

This is not possible because even the government is making simple profit from digital money aside from that this type of earnings are very helpful to every country where crypto are allowed. So how come the government will do that.

[viki]

I think that the government can deny access to sites related to cryptocurrency.  But as far as technically possible, there are different ways to easily get around this prohibition.

[Mas Bro]

In my opinion, it is unlikely that the government will make and make such a decision. Because cryptos and blockchain are good developments for a country.

[Seerge]

That will not be possible, because the internet has become a necessity of life in modern times like today. Not only for Crypto, but the Internet has been used for almost all purposes today.  That's the reason why it's impossible for this Cryptocurrency to die, the reason is because the internet won't die either.

This will depend on the direction in which the cryptocurrency will develop in the future, as well as on many other factors. It is possible that states will look for ways to limit or even ban cryptocurrency. This is especially true for states where the rights of citizens are regularly violated. For example, in the Russian Federation it is now quite possible. It even discusses the issue of criminalizing the use of cryptocurrency. Most likely, the operation of cryptocurrency exchanges and exchangers will be prohibited, separate sites that are related to cryptocurrency. Further actions will be taken depending on the effectiveness of the initial ones. As soon as the political situation changes, so will the cryptocurrency regulations.

[Evgenklm]

This is possible, but it is very difficult and costly for many countries, it is easier to tax and get good taxes from income from cryptocurrency, but I am not surprised at anything, they can also turn off the Internet , but I think our people will find ways and loopholes.

[gotbounty]

You know, it is so funny to think about this.
How can they limit the internet? Limiting the internet will only make countries left behind. DO you know how many industries and activities using the internet? And how can a country limit the internet to only shut down crypto? If they want, just make a strict rule,
using crypto = go to jail

[Alcor]

Well, restricting people's access to some sites, cryptocurrency exchanges and exchangers, even to cryptocurrency forums and everything connected with it, it is quite possible if states unite and decide for some reason to close people's access to cryptocurrency. This will make it very difficult to use cryptocurrency and actually put it on the brink of survival. Let's hope this doesn't happen. It may well coexist with other currencies of states and they can complement each other's capabilities.

Today the internet is necessary to internet subscribers around the globe. It is the main connection to connect each user from far away. In addition internet is the access tool to do business and pay bills at this epidemic moment. Therefore the government will not limit the use of internet.

[Abubakar56]

Internet is one of the most important thing when it comes to cryptocurrency, the only way they can take down cryptocurrency is by taking down internet and ristricting access to certain cryptocurrency site. But I see no reason why they have to take down cryptocurrency!!!
