Huge Demand from Bitcoin in Japan...

"It is a sign of bitcoin’s growing popularity in the country, which recently imposed legislative changes to consider bitcoin as a legal method of payment similar to prepaid cash cards or gift certificates. In other words, a recognized method of payment. In what will prove a shot in the arm for bitcoin adoption in the country, Japanese regulators decided to end the ‘8% consumption tax’ imposed on transactions of bitcoin bought from exchanges. This is set to go into effect in July this year."

Also , 18 companies are applying for lisc for bitcoin exchanges....major.

As things have changed two years ago they did not want to hear the name bitcoin and now how many shops are willing to accept them, excelete post dear friend @floridanow thank you very much for sharing all this information

you are welcome...I just think it's amazing that all this is happening in front of our eyes ...this is history in the making

The possibilities seem endless 👌🏻

I think it's interesting how certain govt are very aggressive and others say no and then yes....it's like a hidden hand calling the shots....and I think the direction has been given --- they printed all the wealth they could

I agee with you there.... Indian giving!

problem - cause - solution....maybe they wanted Bitcoin to be the solution to move everybody to where they wanted?

Interesting. Bitcoin is fast changing the global market.

seems to me that the Central Banker way of printing money and devaluing the currencies will soon make a change to digital currency (as part of what happens). They cannot keep printing and pretend.

The Bitcoin train can never be stopped. Not by anyone! :-)

Maybe the states deep intention was always to have as they have run every other country and currency into the ground?

А в Китае приняли бы закон позволяющий пользоваться Bitcoin, то Bitcoin резко взлетел бы на 10%-15% а то и все 30% в России собираются принять законопроект о Bitcoin и попытаться легализовать пользователей системы , думаю что государство не сможет повлиять на пользователей это невозможно, так-как Bitcoin полностью децентрализован и анонимен как и другие криптографические валюты единственное, что может сделать министерство финансов России это смерится с Bitcoin так-как народ всё равно пользовался и будет пользоваться. Закон будет принят в сентябре 2017 года.

Я с тобой согласен. Я не вижу, как они могут остановить использование биткойнов. В начале развития государство пыталось. Теперь они, которых он получил, поскольку их менеджеры валют потерпели неудачу. Thank you
