That's great initiative but first of all I think it's not safe enough to keep those $30 bitcoins on the wallet made by a government and better to transfer it.

Do you think the government would give $30 to someone and then for some strange reason take that same money back? It seems to me that the president has no ill intentions other than to want to promote Bitcoin among the general population - and is there a better way than to give them gifts that they can spend however they want?

If there is distrust in the government that organizes all this, then the project would be doomed even before it started - and we come to the point that the government has taken the first step, and now it is up to ordinary people to decide whether to accept Bitcoin or not.

The catch is that the 30$ worth of bitcoin is given for those that download Chivo, an app provided by the Government to manage crypto (from September 2021 onwards). Fine it’s a way to kick-start things into motion, but I’d rather it be a wallet of free choice.

Free choice is always desirable, but the government wants to have as few problems as possible when it comes to technical support - because it's easier when you have one crypto wallet than a dozen different ones, each of which can have some specific problems.
