'The dollar is no longer relevant; Bitcoin is the currency of the future,' argues President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador.
That's overstating and doesn't make much sense, if you follow a present term with a futuristic one. Bitcoin could be the future of the financial system, but a the moment it is not and the USD is the most relevant currency.
President Nayib Bukele is just looking for popularity with statements like these, trying to keep El Salvador on the news with their Bitcoin investment.
This is exactly what i was thinking about.
From a political overview, it's not just by saying this that it's true. El Salvador president hasn't enough tools to use bitcoin as an official method of paiement or as an official currency due to many reasons.
El Salvador is facing real economic problems and as politicians can't find a straight way to overpass them, they search popularity using big terms and acting as futurists. they get ride over a beneficial technology just to gain time. Otherwise, Let's see how El Salvador will become a crypto leader in a world controlled by centralization .
