I actually have two "home countries".
One of them has a notoriously inflationary currency, a pretty "interventionist" state ideology, but people which are cracks in the matter of improvisation. Bitcoin is doing well here, there is a local exchange, some retailers and eCommerce sites and many tech-savy people know about it and use it as a way to escape inflation. And our local bitcoin chapter has convinced the central bank that Bitcoin is not dangerous.
The other one is a pretty stable and rich country, and one of the first which have regulated cryptocurrencies - in a positive sense. But as there are less incentives to use BTC than in my "first home country", average Joe doesn't know that much about it. And as the financial regulation entity requires a very expensive registration for exchanges, there is no real-time exchange still.
Perhaps some people have figured out about which two countries I'm talking
