Bitcoin exchanges shut shop in India

“BuySellBitCo.in CEO Mahin Gupta refused to comment on what would happen to the investment that went into BuySellBitCo.in. However, the exchange’s website pointed out that it was suspending operations until a clearer operating framework could be found. ‘Post the RBI circular, we are suspending buy and sell operations. This is being done to protect the interests of our customers and in no way is a reflection of Bitcoin’s true potential or price,’ the trading platform said.  Another trading platform, INBRTC, claimed that the ‘only option now was to suspend services until further arrangements could be made.’”
