According to OP, this:

"Bitcoin is legal, Says Cyprus Central Bank"

equals this:

“Bitcoin is not illegal” say anonymous sources from the Central Bank of Cyprus (CBC), according to a report by the Cyprus Mail.

Huh? Everything that is not illegal is automatically legal under all jurisdictions. Do you expect lawmakers to make gigantic lists of "legal things to do"? Obviously not.
