Is there anything special about this "Bitcoin Cafe" anyway? Besides just having bitcoin-related wall designs? They should've at least put up a television that displays live cryptocurrency prices, or maybe play CNBC Crypto videos or something.

The owner better know about bitcoin, I have had talked with him for hours. He is an expert man in tech. I don't know if he own. He said he don't.
The whole cafe was designed with various cryptographic design, I guess it will make visitor learn about cryptocurrency. I am sure most of them ask what that means, why the design are like this etc. They will somehow know that there's something existed namely cryptocurrency, bitcoin. Isn't it much for us? At the end, when bitcoin will be legal, I guess they all will be more interested.

What if other business establishments name themselves after cryptocurrencies? Bitcoin Laundry Shop, or Ethereum Shopping Center, or perhaps Waves Outdoor Shop. Do you think this will hasten the legalization of crypto in your country?

Is Libra a good cryptocurrency? No.
But still it will help cryptocurrency go more mainstream and increase the adoption. I'm sure it will increase the crypto adoption.
In the same way, this type of name can play as great role to promote.
People will search with the word in google and will get what it is. Isn't it a good way?

Why don't you ask him if he is willing to accept bitcoin if the government legalizes it? He is probably saying no to you to avoid getting in trouble.
Libra isn't going to go beyond the US if at all. I see zero reason for anyone to bother with it. Zuckerberg behind it is reason enough for me to stay away from it.

I would say he is unfairly profiting from the Bitcoin brand, even if you see it as some kind of pacific protest.
