And when El Salvador does not default and its bonds become of the best performing, Bitcoin is suddenly not a reason anymore
So who was blamed for this? Bitcoin of course.
Adopting Bitcoin made them a target of countless media hit pieces (Pics 1, 2, 3). TradFi institutions refused help, made threats and took retaliatory actions (Pic 4). Thus creating a self-feeding loop which caused heavy discounts on bonds leading up to the country's default risk.
Exhibit 530: El Salvador, a tiny nation which rarely made news before, became public enemy #1 of anti-coiners after adopting Bitcoin as legal tender.

Unaware of the endless security budget discussions, failed forks & countless explainers on why 21M is sacrosanct (a few examples in Pic 2).

Dimon goes for the record of max. anti-coiner takes condensed into 2 minutes:
