The Indian government is quite a bit more powerful than Nigeria, unfortunately. They are very efficient in enforcing laws that impede on citizens' liberties.

For example, the government will simply disallow any crypto exchanges from converting between ₹ and any crypto currencies. That will deter 99% of the potential users from ever trying it out.

"just fine" is a funny word for "lands a lot of people in a torture cell"
