  1. If it wasn't for the poverty of most Salvadorians, I'd find it funny how Bukele has figured out how to combine the worst aspects of fiat state currency with the worst aspects of cryptocurrency

  2. It seems a bit weird to compare approval ratings between disparate countries. It's not independently and internationally measured, right? What are the differences in how approval ratings of country leaders are established?

  3. In Normal times when there is not panique of inflation in the world BITCOIN can and will do well, but with possible inflation in the world , any currency will not do well ,except the U.S. dollar or Gold……If you want to know if there is a sign of inflation check the price of oil or go to the Gas station and you will know it.

  4. Bitcoin ,At this time the politiciens are playing economic politiques, that is an open Door to play with the Currency :Example: The COVID 19, THE possible war in Ukrain and Iran in these three scénarios,Politicians will increase inflation or reduce it, so People or ivestors in panique will continue to buy U.S. dollars that will help the U.S. economy in tree seconds and others currences will automatically loose their value as in this case the BITCOIN

  5. I want cryptocurrencies (in the current form) to be banned, and I think it's a question of time before they are either regulated out of existence or made illegal. So, I think adopting a cryptocurrency as legal tender is a bad idea.

  6. 1400 + 410 Bitcoin is not that much. They are not over-leveraged (metaphorically speaking, not meaning classical leverage, rather ratio of Bitcoin to other assets).

    They can gain if Bitcoin will go up, downside is pretty limited even if BTC go zero (very unlikely).

  7. Look we need a global currency and store of value and one off government printing charts. Decentralised and democratic. Bitcoin is it. In time it will help stabilise Fiat in return. Alts can’t do it, gold can’t do it, one nations Fiat definitely can’t do it. The flux will calm in time. But the idea we can move to a next generation civilisation on a central bank platform is bloody absurd unless you have lots of it and near supply which is biased. This does not mean or equate to unregulated use.

  8. The Bitcoin bears have the overall near-term technical advantage as prices are trending lower. After an up-and-down few months for the market, analysts appear divided over which way it heads from hise. Some believe we are in a cool-off period that will see the price slide to yearly lows, while others predict new all-time highs before the middle of 2022. So choosing the right strategy is very important when diving into Crypto, in other words it is important to have a plan! Bitcoin trading is a lucrative opportunity as it leverages the market volatility, I have been able to make 7BTC in just 3weeks of trading all thanks to exclusive signals from Jeff A. Miner, a renowned trader that is way ahead of his time. You can get him on Tєlєɠгคm👉Jeffminer…

  9. There is already some important information missing in the Viedo.
    In addition to Bitcoin, it is still possible to pay with US dollars in El Salvador. Any merchant can receive payment in either US dollars or Bitcoin, regardless of which payment method the customer chooses. The reason for this is the Civa app, practically the crypto wallet, which every El Salvadoran can use, here the one currency is converted into the other. Most merchants continue to choose US dollars, as Bitcoin simply fluctuates too much to be used as a currency. As long as the central bank have enough US dollars to exchange , all no problem in everyday life . However, many young El Salvadorans take advantage of the easy barter opportunities to make money with currency exchanges (dollars to Bitcoin and vice versa) , which is not very productive macroeconomically.

    For the state, of course, it can be problematic if he can not pay his debts, which must be paid in U.S. dollars, because too much money is in Bitcoin and the just down. But that was also addressed in the video.

  10. bitcoin != crypto
    crypto is centralized premined permissioned scams
    bitcoin actually is designed in a way it claims – decentralized, no premine, no permissioned supply, nobody gets it for free.
    why would they use USD when over a third of it was printed by someone else diluting its value with no benefit to them. sure they have volatility now, but they are not subject to whims of a country far away diluting them to 0 with no way to stop it. that's the single thing bitcoin was created to address that all the fake "crypto/meme" coins cannot and have not – easily changing any of rules any time they want.

  11. Bukele seems like great leader. Not sure about the Bitcoin thing but otherwise he is exactly the leader I would want in power

  12. This bitcoin switch was such a bad move lol

    The stock market is just gambling with small hints. A nation's economy can't rely on such an unstable, uncontrollable factor.

  13. He could have just made his own backed by dollar currency, or made a deal with tether to use their platform, and all would have ben fine 🤦🏻‍♂️

  14. doesn't matter if bitcoin is at 100 million a coin or 1 cent, I will leave such a country with wild shitty rules & law.
    his monetory policy is similarly shitty as erdogan's policy.
    also crypto is not nor will ever be a stable, trusted, and as liquid as cash.
    crypto is just like nft …. unstable shit waiting for the right moment to burst.
