“The government is likely to move the cryptocurrency bill at the start of the winter session of Parliament, “news read.
However, earlier this proposed bill was scheduled for Feb 2022. But the source news claimed that the new decision of the regulators is because of the rapid expansion of the crypto-related activities and growing market. And there is a sudden need to regulate these things.
The report also said that the past crypto ban bill of India is under modification.
