Nations and various central banks have started taking cryptocurrencies seriously and many nations have established legal frameworks respectively. Although many countries have banned the cryptocurrencies or some part of it, many nations are joining the fold and many more will continue to enter in the near future.

The report was confirmed by various sources that reported that the country’s National Legislative Assembly approved the amendments to the Securities and Exchange Act.
