RE: BTC hits $1,000 in India. How is this possible?

in #asksteem8 years ago

I bet that the USD/INR exchange rate on the street in India (I.e., the black market rate) is way off from the official rate too. I don't know anything about Indian capital controls, but it seems likely that there isn't really an arbitrage loop opportunity. BTC might be good as a way to get cash into the country, but I bet it's not as easy to convert INR to USD as you'd hope.
