I don't know, 8 years to me looks like a very short amount of time, I really don't understand how some of you may even think that bitcoin will be able to turn ES from one of the poorest economy in the world into the richest country in the world. Especially because they own just less than 2,000 BTC, that's a huge number for an individual but a small one for a company and/or a country.
have you seen people investing on ordinary fiat and making it successful in life? if that happens then i can assure you bitcoin can do better in many ways because it appreciates with time forget about being volatile or not, am not saying a country will turn fully developed from developing and underdeveloped countries within this short range but the entire economic and financial status of such countries can be improved, they will be debt free, their government will concentrate on what to offer the country to improve development and livelihood, because i believe a house is not built a day, it takes a while and same is expected of countries that adopt bitcoin, they will be growing gradually till they become fully developed.
El Salvador holds a large amount of bitcoin, I hope they have a perfect plan with it that can help them become better in the future.
i will give a thread here that talks all about
