For India, the news is a positive development for the country, as demand among the population for alternative currencies is considered strong. In addition to just bitcoins, due to remittance playing a large part in the country’s economy, Indian’s are known for being active users of alternative currencies, with Liberty Reserve’s seizure making an impact on locals. As a result, approved guidelines from the RBI for bitcoin exchanges would be expected to cause a portion of remittance flow to rotate towards the digital currency as it provides lower fees than traditional fund transfers like Western Union.
