The RBI governor compared crypto to the Tulip mania
Das expressed concerns about the increasing digitalization of payments and the risk posed by tech giants dominating payment networks.He also noted that allowing cryptos to gain too much influence may lead to"dollarization" of the economy as most cryptos are dollar-denominated, a scenario he believes is especially dire given that many economies rely heavily on their own currencies for monetary control.
Consequently, he suggested outright banning cryptocurrency instead of misclassifying it as a legitimate financial product. As reported by U.Today, Das raised serious concerns about the potential implications of cryptocurrencies for Indian financial stability at the top of the crypto bubble in November 2021.
It remains to be seen what policy changes will ensue in response to Das' statement. Regardless, its shaping up to be an eventful period ahead for India's cryptocurrency industry, which remains plagued by uncertainty.
