India's finance minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, has given a ray of hope to the Indian cryptocurrency community as more fear, uncertainty and doubts circulate regarding a supposedly impending ban on digital assets.

In a Saturday interview with India Today, Sitharaman emphasized that the ministry did not plan to shut down Indian innovations associated with Bitcoin (BTC) and its underlying blockchain technology.

The Reserve Bank of India is looking into the possibility of issuing a digital currency, good post congrats.
