There are many things to convince our government from our country to accept bitcoin first thing is bitcoin can help grow our economics technology now adays is upgrading so why not to accept? Here in my country they already considered bitcoin as our currency from internet and few of them are starting to use bitcoin for trading and for their own businesses.
The government wants to benefit from the use of bitcoin and until it sees it, then there can be no question of its adoption.
The main question here, what's the benefits which government could gain if they're start to accept bitcoin? Bitcoin is basically volatile that if government just convert their money to bitcoin means they're risking the whole economy.
There's no real benefits for the government at all as I've seen and the benefits is purely there for an individual who uses bitcoin, nothing more.
