They made sanctions on businesses that don't use chivo wallet and refuse to use BTC as a medium of financial transaction
Damn. No freedom for their own citizens to choose their own payment methods?

I'm curious where the OP got this news. I think OP hasn't been properly informed about this. Bitcoin is not the country's only legal tender. El Salvador is not replacing the USD with Bitcoin. The USD is to stay as a legal tender alongside Bitcoin. This means to say that businesses as well as the country's citizens have the freedom to use USD over Bitcoin. They are not forced to use Bitcoin. If they do not understand how Bitcoin works or simply do not like to use Bitcoin at all, it is their freedom not to use it.
