Hong Kong or Tokyo ?
Discussion
Definitely Tokyo. I wouldn’t step foot in the communist territory of Hong Kong
HK used to be awesome. Not so much anymore, indeed. Tokyo has always been and remains awesome -- and right now it's cheap for anyone operating in EUR or USD (or BTC).
What the living cost over there ? 🤔
That's a very broad question. But cheaper than any major Western metro area at the moment. And metro areas out of Tokyo with good quality of life like Nagoya, even cheaper.
As long as you don't have to work for a Japanese-run company there, Japan has the best quality of life in a developed country right now.
(For the record, I was very intentional writing "Japanese-run". It could well be the goofiest Scandinavian-owned company, and still be a hellhole to work at in Japan if the top management and most people are Japanese. Nothing against Japanese people -- I'm married to one -- but I know the business culture intimately)
What about bitcoin adoption? Is it accepted over there ? Or it’s a Wild West ?
I've never seen it anywhere. But I'm guessing if there is a major city im the world where you can find a community -- of ANYTHING -- that's Tokyo. Japanese people love having hobbies, projects, and specific lifestyles to which they devote themselves fully and that become a big part of their identity. I bet you can find a strong bitcoin subculture if you want.
Tokyo
Better weather

Tokyo… HK is far too much under the Shadow.
