Countries That Bitcoin is Banned in 2020
Even with the latest surge in Bitcoin still, there are a few countries in the world where don’t fully see the benefits of the cryptocurrency. There is no doubt now that we are in the middle of a cryptocurrency revolution and yet these countries choose not to partake. Granted different governments have different policies and this is the main reason for them not being allowed. Some of the world's largest and influential countries are also against the use of cryptocurrencies. I’ve gathered a small list of those countries and the reasoning they are giving as to why it should not be allowed.

On which you've staked your life
“If I can imagine a thing, does it exist?” The slim, well-kept man gazed out the window as the words slipped from his mouth like syrup. His fingers rested intertwined on the dark chestnut desk, illuminated by a sole antique lamp.

Satoshi and Banksy
I know. I know. You're thinking a programmer (or a group of programmers) can't possibly be an artist (or a group of artists). I'm here to tell you that coding is art, and when you get good enough at it, it is easily distinguishable from others. People who code are not machines, which means they have ticks, unique styles and idiosyncrasies. We all know the same can be said about artists. I've seen a lot of hubbaloo and documentaries about how to spot the differences between a real Banksy and suspected forgeries. This is because people have original ways of arriving at solutions, be it art, or code.

The Five Labors of Satoshi Nakamoto
“Rise Satoshi. You who have conquered space. You who have conquered time. You who have defeated darkness. You who have tasted death. You now have an audience with your Celestial Father, Keeper of Cosmic Accounts, the Writer of every Golden Rule, Grantor of Wealth in Every Golden Age, His Eminence and Grace– the Once and Future King, His Majesty, the Almighty Jade Emperor. Arise head bowed and only raise your eyes to gaze upon the Divine Light of his Resplendence.”

The Irony of Fate
Satoshi Nakamoto The irony was thick. In Japanese, the words mean “central intelligence,” but the goal of the project would decentralize and confound some of the most “intelligent” minds in the world. It was a fast agreement when somebody suggested the name. We were working in tech, and racial profiling was alive and well. Nobody will question the validity of tech developed by an Asian. To be fair, we had an asian in the group, although he wasn’t Japanese. Malaysian, more precisely, but again, for those of you who think we’ve got this race thing figured out these days, you’d be wrong. The rest of the team was as random as they come. White guy from back east, and Indian from Great Britain, a valley girl from up the road and some dude that crawled out his mom’s basement in Indiana to write world-changing code. Our names aren’t important. We know what we’ve done.

The Mystery of Bitcoin By Roberto Alago Cryptocurrency is here to stay. Of the many available Today, Bitcoin is globally accepted as the first.

The discovery of BITCOIN!
It's a sunny day in the ghetto, grandma is cooking dinner, mom is feeding my little sister, and I'm just looking outside the window daydreaming of a better life. But it's just a dream. It's impossible to make it out of the ghetto when you have no money; can't even afford an education. It almost seems like someone wants the people in the ghetto to stay naive. The only way to make some decent money around here is by selling narcotics or trafficking guns. And I don't know if I want to be part of that. I know for a fact, mom and grandma would never forgive me for something like that. So, I rather keep out of trouble, I've got enough problems in my life to be looking for more. I'm a simple kid.
