They look to have somehow remained very neutral & maintained their culture. It seems physically quite difficult to access the country, which may have helped.

They only got TV & Internet in like 1999 & yet they've stacked more Sats than ES!

It's a constitutional monarchy with a young energetic king. He was educated in the UK, so he's been exposed to Western culture & clearly Bitcoin.

They measure their success by GNH & not GDP.

I'm not sure how I feel about the $200 USD/day tourist tax to travel there.

It will be interesting to watch it unfold. They have abundant hydro power & are mining.

Their currency is currently pegged to the rupee.
