Indian government mafia proposes 10 year jail for cryptocurrency use, may introduce its own digital currency

Jail term of one to 10 years for those who mine, hold or sell cryptocurrencies, a move that will double down on restrictions already placed by the Reserve Bank of India on digital tokens like bitcoin.

The government will also propose the introduction of an official ‘Digital Rupee’ in consultation with the central board of the Reserve Bank of India, according to the draft Banning of Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill, 2019, which was accessed by BloombergQuint.

According to Bitcoin developer LaurentMT, anyone interested in tracing Wasabi’s mixed coins could do so without advanced tools. Chainalysis simply used a public flaw in the Wasabi mixing service."
