Estonia did not only ban #defi, but they also banned #bitcoin.

You are not allowed to download wallet and hold #bitcoin anymore in Estonia.

The linked article really doesn't seem to imply that.

Under "Expanded definition of “virtual currency service”" it seems to apply exclusively to businesses.

My guess: it doesn't matter a damn what the exact language is, they'll use it any way they want. But secondly, I don't believe for one second that either open source wallet developers or holders of personal wallets, will be held liable using this kind of law.

I think they want to find a way to target anybody setting up stuff like ICOs, defi, investment schemes, etc. Basically any organized system of investment.
