Actually it is very difficult for every country to legalize bitcoin as a means of payment, and these countries do not want to destroy their currencies that they have long applied
I hate this kind of thinking to be honest. The Government should be the one who is flexible or open minded when it comes to new things in the modern world, but what's happening for most of the Government is they are doubting bitcoin even though they don't know the whole story about it. First impressions are always wrong, so I'm always wondering when will be the time where all of the Government will have the same mindset like Japan and other countries who legalized bitcoin and implemented it to be use in every day living.
Government here in our country in narrowminded to ignore such gorgeous inventions like Bitcoin. It is sad, how government concluded already that cryptocurrency is not safe because of the majority saying it is just a scam, I pity their poor souls and small brains.
Today many more countries are not yet open-minded and ready to accept the bitcoin and cryptosystem, as they are still closed. Even if the country recognizes blockchain technology maybe the time will come when they will also realize that blockchain technology will be of great help to every government in the country. Thank goodness I even accept the country where I own Bitcoin and crypto.
