Could you elaborate on the regions or countries where
cryptocurrency is considered illegal? I'm particularly interested in understanding the legal landscape for cryptocurrency use in certain jurisdictions, especially those that have outlawed or imposed strict regulations on digital currencies. Are there any specific regions that have banned all forms of cryptocurrency transactions, or are there varying degrees of legality depending on the type of cryptocurrency or the intended use? Additionally, are there any notable recent developments in legislation or legal precedents that have shaped the legal status of cryptocurrency in these regions?
