For 3 months I've been working on exposing what IMF has done behind the scenes to prevent Nation State Bitcoin adoption
It's out in the open now👇

Will have a read for sure. Fascinating place to be digging into the detail
Thanks for this awesome write up
Of course the IMF and other incumbents don’t want Bitcoin to succeed. They have a lot to lose and will fight it.
Regarding CAR: asfaik SangoCoin was a fraudulent project, the person who convinced the President to make Bitcoin legal tender had a history of conducting scams. SangoCoin would have taken BTC and converted it into SangoCoin (what most would call a shitcoin)
My experience from being on the ground in similar corrupt countries is that corruption prevails. To say that IMF prevented Bitcoin adoption bc they shutdown SangoCoin, which would have been a great Bitcoin project is far fetched.
Those seem like sane policies. Preventing states from slipping further into debt.
But why worry about nation states and the IMF even. I thought Bitcoin was for sticking it to the man? The IMF isn't what's keeping your local grocery store from adopting Bitcoin.
