The most severe economic crisis, Bitcoin is gaining quite a bit of trust as a currency. In my opinion, Bitcoin doesn't quite fit the bill of a war currency.
The meaning of digital gold for Bitcoin has now found the right interpretation in the public. If gold is complicated to store because it is physical, Bitcoin is more flexible. As a hedge, Bitcoin has surpassed physical gold from the results of scientific research. If you want to believe in it or not, I leave it entirely to you.
You should take a country like El Salvador as an example. Look at the statistics of trust among the residents themselves. As far as I know, the preference is still given to the US dollar. There are not so many Salvadorans who are ready for such changes. And the technology is not so well tested. Still, a country with a more developed economy should be taken as an experiment.
Why does it have to be El Salvador in the middle of the discussion about Bitcoin as a war currency and the meaning of Bitcoin as digital gold. I think this misses the point.
El Salvador does not force its citizens to require the use of Bitcoin. El Salvadorans are given a choice in the use of currency. You can use Bitcoin amidst the use of fiat currencies that I know of.
In addition, not all countries allow the use of bitcoin for internal payments. In my country, it is prohibited by law. So, to be honest, I don’t see any positive side.
In my country of residence it is also not permitted to use Bitcoin as a means of payment but only as a commodity asset.
