In these moments, the world is run by a tendency within the governments of the major nations of the world. And is that, in most cases, and especially after the announcement of Libra, the virtual currency of Facebook and other big companies of world-class, these governments have assumed an attitude of skepticism, if not open hostility against the cryptocurrencies. This skepticism has manifested itself in two different ways. On the one hand, countries such as China or Russia are trying to get involved more each day in the technology Blockchain, and develop their own initiatives using it, including the future launch of its own virtual currency, centrally issued, they expect to be able to compete and beat the cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, there is another group of countries whose aim is not to participate in the market of virtual money, but to prevent its existence, prohibiting totally the cryptocurrencies in its territory. Until recently, this was the case of Kyrgyzstan, and today is still that of India, a country whose government has been one of the most furibundos in their attacks against the Bitcoin and other crypto. These attacks against the crypto market have reached the point that even mentioned the possibility of a law that prohibits any transaction and possession of cryptocurrencies in the asian country, trying to uproot what they perceive as a problem. This attitude persists despite the fact that according to estimates of companies such as Crebaco Global Inc., the prohibition of the cryptocurrencies by the indian government would lead to the loss of 12.9 billion dollars of the country’s GDP. However, and despite the fact that the indian government has this attitude, there are still companies in the country, betting on the Blockchain and its potential to transform the economy. So, Tech Mahindra, a subsidiary of the technology company Mahindra Group, has partnered with the american accounting distributed Adjoint, for the creation of a solution for the management of financial and insurance-based Blockchain. It is for this reason that we chose this as our Data of the Day here in CriptoTendencia, because it shows us how, in spite of all the obstacles that try to put the governments crypto skeptics to the development of the technological revolution that we are experiencing, the Blockchain, the cryptocurrencies and other inventions that are changing every aspect of our lives, follow his course, gaining ground within civil society.
