I think I will agree with those that suggested that the government are literally the main factor that hinders Bitcoin acceptance in a country. Just like every country, the government are totally in charge. Of course, we hear democracy, or freedom, or whatsoever, but the government always wants to be the boss. Bitcoin is difficult for them to have control over because it literally exceeds a country. It is clearly different from a fiat system where the government can either trigger excess of it, or limit it like what I witnessed in my country in two different occasions.

Having a technology that they can not shut down, can not replicate its monetary form like the excessive printing of fiat, can not be seized without the owner's permission if the person practices self custody, clearly looks like a threat to them. The thing is, some government has learnt to live with it, knowing fully well that nothing can be done, but guess what, they still impose KYC/AML policies, so as to put their citizens in check.
