 if they NOT allowing legally use bitcoin as METHOD of payment means they r afraid of IT user have no financial freedom in that place 
 Governments haven't been able to prevent people from making payments so far. And there is no indication that they are planning on outright banning them.

 The protocol or the network does not change because a few people decide to use it a certain way. Nobody can do anything about it. 
 And in the same way, the properties of Gold does not change because a few people decide to represent its value in a certain way. 

That's the point I'm making for both Bitcoin and Gold.
