An array of companies reside in the country that have been pushing the idea of cryptocurrency adoption greatly like Coinomat, Zebpay, and others. India’s IT giant Infosys has also been very supportive of blockchain technology and is helping research with an accelerator program. Then in late December 2015, India’s Reserve Bank publicly endorsed the distributed ledger protocol and acknowledged its potential with transparency.
