NORWAY IS GOING TO BAN BITCOIN MINING WITHOUT PUBLIC CONSULTATIONS -
WE NEED TO ACT NOW
Norway's Ministry of Digitalisation and Public Administration responded to @ODFoundation that it "has no plans to conduct a public consultation" on a ban on cryptocurrency mining.
There is no doubt that the ban designed to target #Bitcoin mining. Unfortunately, that's a stance of the @Stortinget and the Norwegian government.

🔴 Why we should protect our #freedomtech Bitcoin in #Norway NOW:
(1) Norway is fully integrated in the European Single Market throught the European Economic Area (EEA) and Schengen Agreement. It means Norway can provide its legilsative approach as an input for new legislation for the EU/EEA both:
- during the preparatory phase, when the @EU_Commission is developing proposals;
- during work of expert groups and committees of the European Commission;
- submitting proposals and comments to European Free Trade Association on upcoming legislation.
(2) As a co-founder of the @OECD , Norway sets an example of regulation worldwide and provides its legislative recommedations for global standards.
(3) Norway has historically been a place to meet, share experiences and educate human rights defenders and bitcoiners from around the world.
Norwegian goverment will present its investigation a ban on cryptocurrency mining by the end of 2024.
🔴 What we should do together to prevent Bitcoin mining ban:
(1) Repost this post and join our #BTC Coalition to educate local communities and media about social benefits of Bitcoin mining in Norway and worldwide;
(2) Help us pool resources and best practices to convince Norwegian politicians and media to explore the social benefits of Bitcoin to prevent this repressive regulation;
(3) If you are a Norwegian citizen: write a letter to your legislator and government asking for public consultation and providing arguments about the social benefits of Bitcoin mining for Norway.
