In March, India’s Supreme Court overturned the banking restrictions for crypto exchanges. This significant shift in tides opened the door for an explosion of growth on the Indian crypto exchange market. With banking being bank on track, exchanges are slowly reviving, and the crypto market is steadily ramping up again. In this short but detailed article, we’ll talk about why all Bitcoin bulls are predicting explosive growth in India.
BTC and ETH Leading the Ramp Up
With the Coronavirus-caused global lockdown which has affected India as well, many Indians who are staying inside are using this time to invest in new streams of revenue. The two most popular avenues among Indian investors are gold and cryptocurrencies. When speaking of the latter, many exchanges operating in India have recorded spikes in new registrations. Tech-savvy users who closely follow the crypto market have found that now is the right time to diversify income and increase crypto holdings.
Moreover, two of the most popular cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and Ethereum, have experienced solid growth over the past few months. Ethereum, in particular, has been looking promising since the start of the year. With 2020 being only halfway through, this year could be especially significant for this cryptocoin.
The Revival of Cryptocurrencies in India
Bangalore has been dubbed as “India’s Silicon Valley,” and for a good reason. With more tech workers in the city than in entire populations of some countries, Bangalore is a tech hub with no shortage of technically skilled people. The city leads the way in crypto-related job postings. This trend will only continue to rise now that the significant legal battles have been decided in favor of cryptocurrencies. One of India’s leading crypto exchanges, Unocoin, is already serving thousands of active users, with around 400,000 users that have already gone through the know-your-customer process on this exchange.
