When do we hear news of presidents gifting cryptocurrency to a fellow-president? I hope he installs any ledger wallets and becomes a fanatic! Cheesy IMO, making it easy for these businesses to use blockchain/crypto is key, some of these kiddos still have no idea about the technology too. I hope simple integrations as what NEM Symbol APIs have done with Lithuania's President can open more doors.

See , we have seen in the past people gifting cryptocurrencies , this for sure can improve what others might think about them and at the same time create a more progressive era.

Two of the examples:

1. Ellen Gifting Cryptocurrency for Charity on show
2. Warren Buffet receiving Bitcoins as a gift

But Warren Buffet wasn't a good sport to have received Bitcoins since he does not like the whole idea of cryptocurrencies as a whole but in This case I do believe that the president will for sure make a good use of it .

_*_

Other than that when politically significant people do make little moves in the right direction it does inspire other people who follow them to actually do the same , over the years there have been celebrities who actually endorsed the cryptocurrencies.

Example:

Snoop Dog wanted record available to be brought in Bitcoins
Paris Hilton
Bill Gates
Elon musk !!! Etc

That's a very good news, because when officials from the governments gift crypto!, then surely that means those governments are pro-crypto and helps to make contributions towards growth of crypto in the larger world. Hopefully, this trend will be adopted by many countries and people should know about the good things of crypto and blockchain!

FYI Estonian president is a she. And the gift wasn't some popular crypto like Bitcoin or ETH, it was collectible government-issued crypto coins called LBCOIN. It's not meant to be used for payment, it's just a collectible, you can read about it here. So don't view it as some sort of sign of official adoption for Bitcoin - this wasn't even about crypto, it was more about "blockchain technology".

It's still a good gift tho. This somehow spreads awareness about blockchain technology. Especially during the pandemic where blockchain can really be useful in many ways. Looking at the details of the gift it's really worth keeping and unique.

Cool nonetheless. I think what is more important for us to see is that Lithuania and Estonia's president initiate dealing with the blockchain tech. Take note that those two are not just ordinary people, they are presidents — the man with greatest influence within a country. Thus I'm feeling good about this, their citizens will surely get triggered by this news and now get into crypto as well. And as a result, our community will grow further Smiley.

It's not a cryptocurrency, it's a digital currency, there is a difference. They make use of the word crypto because it's swag in 2020.
But in reality, it's a state currency and not P2P without a central bank. You can buy it from the Bank of Lithuania and if I'm correct you can not store it, the B of L does it on your behalf.
It's a coin for numismatists I think.

It's like if you buy a car and the seller tells you: "You bought it but the car stays here"

It's a great first step I guess. We'll have to  wait and see if there's a point a G7 country does this to another because that'd be extremely notable...
. I haven't heard about Lithuania being cryptiphillic but I think it was going that way.

These small moves can help wide-spread adoption 100%. Blockchain technology is still very vague, especially to the older generations.
