Something to add
We saw various interesting developments in this month. Our court case hearing was also interesting and showed that the judge bench had done prior research on blockchain and crypto. I think it’s a very good thing for our ecosystem.
In the meantime, let’s keep busting more myths and misinformation about crypto, and keep winning 💪
Jai Hind 🇮🇳
