This doesn't sound much like a great news to me, what will she do differently if she becomes president? Encourage the use of an alternative currency that may compete with the nation's currency?
I've seen an interview with her and she's a smart woman with a lot of energy. Could make a great president because you can see she loves that little country. With the money and ideas she's got, Maya could prosper in a developed country, but she chose a country with large inflation, corruption and limited perspectives. I hope she wins and makes a change.
Switching to Bitcoin doesn’t necessarily guarantee economic stability. It’s a highly volatile currency, and basing an entire economy on it could make things even more uncertain. In fact, the countries that have already made this choice haven’t really managed to reduce their inflation or solve their economic issues.
Even though I find Maya competent and motivated, she’ll likely face deeply rooted obstacles, like corruption and weak institutions. Tackling these issues requires more than just good intentions and ideas. Plus, such a radical change could lead to political and social tensions that might slow down reforms.
