El Salvador | What a Bitcoin Dictatorship

Should we celebrate El Salvador for adopting Bitcoin as a legal tender? Its transparent blockchain might enable financial surveillance on a massive scale.

The country now led by a social media crafty 39-year-old millennial is rewriting its history. While until now, El Salvador has been most well-known for its endless struggles with gang wars, it may soon become a Central American hub for digital revolution of the blockchain technology. From September this year, every business in El Salvador will have to accept bitcoin as a payment method. But will this actually deliver Salvadorans on the Bitcoin’s promise of financial freedom? Or will El Salvador’s president use Bitcoin to prop up his regime?
