Vietnam has banned bitcoin. Not a huge country but it's a first.

All, I am a Vietnamese native speaker (my twitter account: https://twitter.com/pcdinh). Also, I am a member of many local Bitcoin groups in Vietnam. Here is the true story:

  • It is just a warning, not officially written, legal statement. Bank of Vietnam issues a press release which is not a legal document. According to Bank of Vietnam, Bitcoin is not 1. a legal tender 2. legitimate method of payment . Basically the Bank says "I don't protect you if you list Bitcoin as a payment method in your contract. Use it at your own risk"
  • Bank of Vietnam want to ban financial agencies (only) from trading Bitcoin. However, it is not an official ban. Just a warning.
  • Bank of Vietnam say nothing about individual ownership or trading of Bitcoin
So, Bitcoin in Vietnam is NOT illegal at the moment. It is unregulated.

As a Bitcoin enthusiast, I believe that the Bank wants to do more research on the topic before composing any Bitcoin-related legal document. I will keep you posted on this.

Here is the official link to State Bank of Vietnam press releasehttp://www.sbv.gov.vn/portal/faces/...afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=32mmf5it1_366

Sounds like the usual government warning.

Keep spreading uninformed FUD. Every new post you makes you look more stupid than the other

So, i heard it from... http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/vietnam-bitcoin-transactions-illegal-22712228

So if you are in Vietnam, it is harder to withdraw bitcoin into Vietnamese currency. If you think ABC news is a flaky source of news, then go ahead and make that claim.

Brehs, I don't know why y'all are so eager to shyt on Bitcoin and rejoice every time there is bad news about it.
We know you don't like, you don't believe in it and wish it'll die, we got it. But no need to come here every time so you can shyt on those who think it's a good idea. Can we keep it civil and mature a little and stop those petty back and forths ?

mate im not trolling or trying to talk nonsense why would you get involved in something that fluctuates so much your gonna lose money. did you not see that thread on reddit? people put big money and lost this can happen to anyone really. theres other ways to get money why put money into something where you can half if not all your money in no time at all

and besides with the market now your now gonna make bank. its a waste of time have fun making barely any money thinking you should keep going only to end up with a loss in the end.

if silk road didnt fail then maybe bitcoin would still be worth it but with all these sites going down bitcoin is to risky and basically over

that's what they said in 2011.

bitcoin is not close to over. it is actually growing every day.

you don't know what you are talking about. you are ignorant and uninformed. you lack fundamental understanding of the technology.

you are talking nonsense. what happened with mt gox is the result of shady characters in a very young technological infrastructure.

since Silk Road went down, Bitcoin rose to all time highs. you sound like those sheep that think bitcoin is only for drugs & money laundering

People supporting bitcoin have invested into bitcoin mining and don't want it to go away or else they're going to lose money on their investment. They want to pump up the volume of users of bitcoin. More transactions, more money.
