@TravelMug is right, it's useless at all and wouldn't the Taliban refuse that from happening right because they at least have some inkling knowledge as to the implications of making bitcoin an official currency. Also, it's not really the right step for them to use bitcoin as a currency since there's not enough to go around.

I believe only around 20% of the population in Afghanistan has access to internet, so that would make it a pretty bad candidate to switch to Bitcoin. The unstable government also seems counter to what we’re currently seeing with Bitcoin adoption in El Salvador. So to answer your question… No.

The country is not yet very stable, they are yet not organized to set up the kind of government that will unify them. There is so much tribe in Afghanistan that when the US was there they can't sort out. All things now I guess depend on the Talibans they are now in control of the country.


That law also will block users from using Bitcoin. Such an od law that suppresses progress.

They now first need to develop their own currency. They cannot access the Internet without a mobile phone. Assuming the use of Bitcoin will not be able to be fully popularized.
They are different from El Salvador. The economic support of El Salvador’s own country can be exchanged for Bitcoin,
The important thing is to develop the economy.

can afghanistan replace afghanistan currency with bitcoin,, according to my prediction, it is very difficult to happen, because of political problems in their country which is unstable, and internet problems are constrained, and in addition only about 30% who understand about bitcoin, and they also still lacking in communicating in English, I think they will find it difficult to follow the steps taken by el salvador, but in the future we don't know what will happen, because if we are sure we can.

I'm not sure afghanistan will succeed in replacing their currency with bitcoin, as has been done by el salvador, because the country of afghanistan is not yet stable, and there are not many people who understand bitcoin, but if they legalize bitcoin in their country, I think it could happen, and easy for them to legalize bitcoin..

For now, the Taliban are just forming their government. In general, we do not yet know what they are going to do and what policy to pursue. Their first promises are at odds with their deeds. Therefore, for now, you just need to observe what the Taliban will do in power and how to behave.
In Afghanistan, within a month, they predict big problems with an acute shortage of cash and money in general, since almost everything that the central bank of this country had is blocked in foreign accounts. In this case, cryptocurrency could mitigate the situation, however, to what extent they and the residents of Afghanistan are able to accept and use cryptocurrency. However, in any case, the economy needs to be raised with its own national currency.

I'm pretty convinced the Talibans don't want Afghans to use a currency that enures 100% freedom and potential anonymity (or at least privacy much better than fiat offers if used correctly). If there was a country adopting Bitcoin as a national currency replacement, it would definitely not be Afghanistan at this point in time.

@Tybi
Regardless of the current cash shortages and bank closures, BTCitcoin can't replace their own currency ^{[for now]}, but it could somewhat complement it!
<sup>- Even if the internet penetration rate was high [it's quite low], I still highly doubt that the Taliban would've allowed its citizens to have that much power over something that they could hardly control.
- As it stands, it's only good for those that want to flee the country in the near future.</sup>
