Nigeria, South Africa, Morocco, Ghana and Kenya and many more countries in Africa that bitcoin is legalized. It is not compulsory that the government must use it as a legal tender before, bitcoin can be used or is legal.
I was going to say the same, but you added more to my knowledge because I did not know that these countries in the second paragraph have also legalized the cryptocurrencies, well, speaking of these, I am assuming our country might also legalize the crypto as well. Because we take loans from the IMF and the IMF has the ability to request our government to make some changes in the financial policies and now after the approval of ETFs.
Recently, they have requested our government to apply taxes on crypto as well, and crypto is not legalize here so I guess it will be legalize soon, and same scenario can happen to you, as the remaining countries in that side might also have to match the pace (world is moving forward) and for that, they have to legalize crypto to get full advantage.
