As far as trading in cryptocurrencies in India rea concerned, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), on May 31, RBI had earlier asked banks not to cite its 2018 circular that prohibited banks and NBFCs from dealing in crypto business.   It said 2018 circular on cryptocurrencies has been set aside by the Supreme Court (SC) in March 2020. "The circular is not valid from the date of the SC order and cannot be cited or quoted from, "the RBI said. However, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das later said the central bank’s view on cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin remains unchanged and it continues to have “major concerns” on the volatile instruments. “There is no change in RBI’s position (on cryptocurrencies). Our circular clarifies the position very well,” PTI reported RBI Governor making this statement.
