El Salvador taught us that a political decision to legalize bitcoin is not a quick game-changer. On the contrary, we must expect virulent criticism from the henchmen of Big Brother, a slow adoption of the population, or even attacks from the bear market. Nevertheless, Naiyb Bukele remains confident, and the Salvadoran people are gradually joining his vision of Bitcoin.
