Episode notes
El Salvador's Unique Adoption
- El Salvador's Bitcoin adoption was unique due to their lack of a national currency.
- Their pre-existing dollarization made adopting Bitcoin less drastic than for nations with central banks.
A Neutral Reserve Asset

- A neutral reserve asset is likely to emerge, and Bitcoin's properties make it a potential candidate.
