Ngl I don't particularly feel glad about the two countries which adopted #Bitcoin : El Salvador and (soon, or maybe already by the time I posted this) Argentina. Both of these countries have some serious issues, most notably a history of brutal dictatorships and in the case of El Salvador, currently is a dictatorship. Argentina's government under Javier Milei on the other hand, has removed the regulations which limit how much police can brutalize protestors and rioters, which is a similarly authoritarian move. As someone who is strongly committed to the idea of true individual freedom, ideally with absolutely no state, this is concerning and poses the question: is Bitcoin enabling dictatorships? Just something I've been thinking about lately.
