Topic: A #Bitcoin Christmas in El Salvador 🇸🇻 (Read 146 times)
It's not the same with my country. But I am happy to see a nation that celebrates the season with Bitcoin. It only means that there's growth to that country and they're moving forward to the future with it. It's very rare to see countries that are like this so, we should celebrate with them wherever we are or if not, just be happy with the progress that El Salvador is doing right now. So, if they light a Christmas tree or a lantern with a Bitcoin sign, that means huge as a symbolism.
I see nations with socialist ideas quickly and quietly monitoring and adopting the new technology while others are still scared of the impact it can make in the grassroots economy.
Tbh it is still risky to have such investments especially for a country to a super volatile assets that could drop down their while capital in just a month and at the same time it could double their profit in the next few weeks. If you will consider the lost an investor may have you could think it's too risky to proceed. That's why there are only few countries that do the risk. 
Damn.
Is it that bad for you with crypto where you live? It's a shame and I hope it would change in the future.
Yes, it is that bad where I live. Two acquittances where picked up from their residence by security agents. They checked their phones and saw that they were into crypto and threw them in prison. Even when explanation where made that it was payment from an organization outside the country for services they rendered, they still had to spend about 14 days in prison. And would only be released after they made payment for bail. They weren't taken to the court for them to have the chance to defend themselves. Will it change in the future? well we all hope it does.

As the leading country on bitcoin adoption around the globe i hope this will be an annual celebration, i mean the lighting of bitcoin christmass tree not just because its in bull season because if I remember correctly, there's nothing like this last year.
It's interesting to see these transformations in the adoption of Bitcoin over time and how these new developments will be shaping the world in couple of years to come. Anyone else who's still thinking that Bitcoin is not the way to go will be running away from the reality but I know that sooner or later, bitcoin will become the new currency acceptable by the world or rather the world's most preferred currency.
El Salvador has a good vision towards the emancipation of the bitcoin-driven economy hence their position is driven towards leading other nations to such new developments. The financial freedom that comes with the decentralized technology is humungos and cannot be overemphasized, I see nations with socialist ideas quickly and quietly monitoring and adopting the new technology while others are still scared of the impact it can make in the grassroots economy.
It's only natural that El Salvador celebrates Christmas with a Bitcoin tree because the country has adopted bitcoin quite well... no wonder the President supports this event even I see this like in their Palace right?
Only a few communities may celebrate, but the state does not prohibit my country is now quite crypto-friendly.
Do you think your country also should celebrate in any occasion with Bitcoin?
My country's government does not celebrate anything related to bitcoin, because it is only a commodity asset not a means of payment.Only a few communities may celebrate, but the state does not prohibit my country is now quite crypto-friendly.

Wow! It's like bitcoin as the star of their Christmas, that's one thing that bitcoin should be very proud of. And aside that El Salvador was the first country to make bitcoin as the legal currency, this is also the first country that initiate Christmas linking to bitcoin. Although the idea is not surprising, but it's one of the biggest achievements of bitcoin I think, hopefully more countries will be able to recognize bitcoin as a legal currency in the next years to come.

Maybe you don't even need to create another thread on this, since there is a dedicated thread on El-Salvador's bitcoin adoption, you could have only made a reply there on the thread.
Regarding the said country, the entire world is proud of them because they have already set the model down for every others to follow, maybe this new year we are going into will be another increase for having a number of countries that will be adopting bitcoin as a legal tender as El-Salvador.
it's great to see a country celebrating christmas and at the same time bragging about how important bitcoin is in their country. bitcoin should have a special place in countries that allow it, but so far only el savador has been able to celebrate christmas and bring bitcoin at the same time.
hopefully in the future in my country there are people, institutions, or companies related to bitcoin who want to make a christmas tree like the one made by el savador.

I feel El Salvador is carried away with the love that they have for bitcoin to the point that they are celebrating it alongside with Christmas. I know that the country has made huge profit from their bitcoin holdings, but that doesn't mean that they shouldn't do the right thing at the right time. They should have taken a special day to celebrate bitcoin this way to gain more attention and not on festive period. El Salvador motto should be 'BITCOIN TILL I DIE'. 
Christmas isn't about celebrating Bitcoin and it's not supposed to be the center of the attention during this Holiday. For me it's too much to display a Christmas tree containing a Bitcoin hologram. There are another means to promote Bitcoin adoption and usage while still keeping the traditions and aesthetics of Christmas event.
Of course they are aiming a commercial effect through it. People tend to spend more money on Christmas to gift people around, so the responsible for the local organization is putting Bitcoin in evidence to encourage people to deal with Bitcoin.

It will be good if many countries celebrate Bitcoin because that will help Bitcoin grow and still have value in the eyes of people who are not still interested in Bitcoin, I will be happy if my country celebrates like this but Bitcoin is not a legal currency in my country, my country don't even allow anything that concerns cryptocurrency because they always see it as something that did not have value to the country, my country also sees cryptocurrency as the reason why the country is not progress.
Many people get involved in cryptocurrency and they have become successful people in life today through Bitcoin but in my country is not legal, Those countries that celebrate it know what they have achieved in it that's why they are celebrating it, I will be happy to see my country celebrate like this but our leaders won't allow that to happen.
Do you think your country also should celebrate in any occasion with Bitcoin?
It can be celebrated, but other countries cannot because there is much talk about its legality, so they do not feel comfortable celebrating it. Countries that like cryptocurrency and work with it want to do something like this, but they can not because their country has many restrictions. Even if we want to do something like this in our country, we can not because we have many restrictions. But if something is ever done about our legality, then we can also freely discuss or celebrate something about BTC in an open way. But you share on photo its very extraordinary.
Kind of dubious if you ask me. I do not think the Christmas spirit should have any thing to do with Bitcoin. But maybe it is just me.
I get that El Salvador may be proudly displaying their love for Bitcoin. But I believe one of the reasons we all celebrate Christmas is to forget about every thing else. Imagine New York lit up a Christmas tree with '$' all over it. Why would they? Holidays are a way to escape reality for a moment and concentrate all the focus on your family. Maybe I take it too harsh on them, but it looks like now they are trying way too hard.

The irony of life. While one country is condemning cryptocurrency including Bitcoin and saying that it is used for laundering. Another country is celebrating Bitcoin for bringing life and light to their country.Well expect those things especially people have different belief so we cannot expect that other parties would really like Bitcoin since for sure that they will stick on those things that they are familiar with. Its just those people who's skeptical or hate Bitcoin doesn't want it that's why they are not celebrating together with this coin.
Since El Salvador is doing a nice thing so its not surprising that they celebrate Christmas by promoting Bitcoin since somehow their country is gaining a lot of profit from this that's why its expected that more celebration to come especially if they are still bullish and benefiting from thus coin.
Damn.
Is it that bad for you with crypto where you live? It's a shame and I hope it would change in the future.

I doubt it. Most of governments do not want crypto to flourish because it makes them less powerful.
However after a point, there might come a stage where even government is not capable to stopping bitcoin with restrictive laws and is forced to embrace crypto technology.
My country is not going to celebrate Bitcoin. Infact if the police see you with any thing that says "Bitcoin", best believe you'll be spending your holidays in the darkest coldest prison in the country.

They can do this every year as they continue to recognize Bitcoin as legal currency, showing their strong trust in Bitcoin’s future. The best part is that they hold the distinction of being the first country to declare Bitcoin as legal tender, which ensures their country grabs headlines with every related announcement they make.
The prestige from the actions they made already and in the past would ring a bell through the years to come.
Cheers to them.
