A South African High Court ruled on June 1 that bitcoin qualifies as capital and a negotiable instrument, allowing the lawful seizure of 1,680 bitcoins from trader Square Mangundhla. The court found bitcoin holds value, is used for speculation, and accepted by merchants, contradicting the South African Reserve Bank's stance that cryptocurrency is not legal tender.

The decision supports exchange control regulations aimed at preventing capital export without approval.
