RE: Project Venezuela: Official Launch [White Paper] English Version
What you see as the last step should be the first one
"Impulse the creation in Venezuela of a legal framework conducive to the use and proliferation of initiatives based on blockchain"
How can you achieve all the previous steps if blockchain activity is ilegal in Venezuela?

Venezuela have an stricted currency control, foreing coins are sold by the goverment and no one else is allowed to do that, so If buying or selling foreing currencies is ilegal I guess is the same for Crypto
If those links is acurated you are risking your freedom and you should rethink the objectives to achieve them within the legal framework of Venezuela
Sorry sir, but you have lived in Venezuela? Do you have any idea how things are here? Do you know anything about the current political situation?
If you wish I can pass you more news articles, which I know about the prosecution of some bitcoin miners by the government. From which, I assure you all Venezuelan bitcoin owners we are aware of.
In your country, bitcoin is a currency? In many it is only an electronic good or a commodity. Here is not any of the above, so simple because no one has legislated about it and if it is not a currency as it will apply the law of currency mischief in it?
Even you know, by the same laws that binds currencies, Venezuela is one of the Latin American country that trades more with bitcoin? The week of 12 to 17 of this month was gotten to move 1.1 million dollars in transactions of bitcoins by LocalBitcoins (Source).
At another point, I can also tell you about workshops that have been given in the country by international consultants like Pwc, about bitcoin and blockchain.
If you still want to give us more information, about our country where we live, welcome then.
Thanks for comment.
So if it's not ilegal why there is people in jail for using blockchain technology?
The charges that were levied on these people were things like "electricity theft." Anyway, we are promoting the use and research of solutions based on Blockchain technology. We do not promote things like the mining of bitcoins or some other digital currency. Little by little we will pave the way for things to flow as quietly as possible. With organization and constant work everything is possible, if today we do not start, who will?
