Your friend Bukele sold himself to the IMF for a wagon of billions. Bitcoin must be born from below as in Africa in some villages. If imposed from above and by state laws it is destined to fail. Politicians are easily corrupted aime' 🤷♂️

To my knowledge the bitcoin legal tender laws were never enforced on small businesses. That’s why if you go there you find see that only a small percentage of merchants accept bitcoin.
Was the bitcoin rollout perfect? No.
Did Buckle make a deal with imf? Yes.
But that doesn’t negate the fact that El Salvador went from “murder capital of the world” to a relatively safe country in under a decade. El Salvador is by no means a “failed experiment.”
I assume you have never been there because your perspective is myopic and flawed. No need to go to personal
I've never been there. But I followed people who have been there over and over again. And adoption has never been there. Bukele has only been an attraction for many bitcoiners around the world to go there. But the locals didn't calculate ₿ at all. Adoption of Salvadorans zero. And now it has also been sold to the IMF. Have you noticed that when Bukele talks/talks about ₿ both on social media and in interviews he always speaks in English? Salvadorans don't know English. He addresses an audience other than his citizens. So failed experiment
You’re either just flat out misinformed or trolling. Go see for yourself the future is bright for El Salvador.
