📰El Salvador Bitcoin Saga📰
On June 5th, the final day of the event, Strike founder Jack Mallers was presenting the incredible adoption his app has seen in El Salvador since launching there in March this year After seeing how popular Strike was in El Salvador, president Nayib Bukele asked Jack if he would be on board with helping him draft a bill to make BTC legal tender in the country Jack accepted, and this bill was revealed in a pre-recorded video clip at the end of Jack’s presentation. In addition to legal tender, includes a series of crypto friendly laws, including zero capital gains on BTC
⚖Hurdles To El Salvador’s BTC Adoption⚖
For starters, it seems that El Salvador’s prime minister has his fair share of controversies. According to Coindesk, Nayib has a history of authoritarian tendencies An opposing political party in El Salvador has also filed a lawsuit against the current administration which argues that the Bitcoin bill is unconstitutional

🌮Mexico’s Potential Crypto Adoption🌮
Multiple lawmakers in Mexico are also hoping to get their country in the Latin American crypto space race They are facing a fair share of hurdles given that the Mexican drug cartel have actively been using cryptocurrency to launder
🌎Why Latin America?🌎
The one thing that El Salvador, Panama, Paraguay, and many other Latin American countries have in common is that they all rely heavily on the US dollar, even those which have their own national currencies. Moving to Bitcoin allows them to free themselves from US influence
📊Market Effects Of BTC Adoption by Governments📊
The most significant impact the government adoption of cryptocurrency will have relates not to price, but to regulation and policy which exists upstream from price action As we’re seeing now, the initial knee jerk reaction by foreign dollar driven interests and three letter financial organizations will be to sanction any countries that adopt Bitcoin as legal tender Rather than dissuade countries from continuing their crypto adoption, I predict that it will accelerate the process. Mass adoption will eliminate Bitcoin’s volatility and change the way we measure its value
