Regardless of what AnonyMint actually suggests, I wonder if you have a point with Ecuador.  Suppose, in some possible world differing greatly from reported plans, that Ecuador's Central Bank clones Bitcoin Core and modifies it slightly so that the Central Bank is the sole mint which can mine the digital currency. Furthermore, in this possible world, Ecuador retires its dependence on the US dollar and mandates the new digital currency as legal tender.

In this purely hypothetical scenario, this particular crypto-currency becomes 6x the market capitalization of bitcoin given Ecuador's M2 at $36 billion. All financial institutions performing transactions with Ecuador, e.g. payment card processors, bank wire processors, foreign exchange traders, etc., would all have to modify their respective software systems to accommodate Bitcoin protocol transactions and settlement procedures.

I suggest that in this scenario, Bitcoin is surpassed.

But it is likely according to reports that Ecuador will squander the opportunity as did Canada a while ago. Satoshi created Bitcoin partly because sovereign governments are not trustworthy with respect to debasing their currencies. They effectively keep a portion of M2 growth for themselves or to prop up failing banks.
