That’s the spirit of Satoshi! They can do this every year as they continue to recognize Bitcoin as legal currency, showing their strong trust in Bitcoin’s future. The best part is that they hold the distinction of being the first country to declare Bitcoin as legal tender, which ensures their country grabs headlines with every related announcement they make.

The irony of life. While one country is condemning cryptocurrency including Bitcoin and saying that it is used for laundering. Another country is celebrating Bitcoin for bringing life and light to their country.

My country is not going to celebrate Bitcoin. Infact if the police see you with any thing that says "Bitcoin", best believe you'll be spending your holidays in the darkest coldest prison in the country.

I doubt it. Most of governments do not want crypto to flourish because it makes them less powerful.

However after a point, there might come a stage where even government is not capable to stopping bitcoin with restrictive laws and is forced to embrace crypto technology.

Kind of dubious if you ask me.  I do not think the Christmas spirit should have any thing to do with Bitcoin.  But maybe it is just me.

I get that El Salvador may be proudly displaying their love for Bitcoin.  But I believe one of the reasons we all celebrate Christmas is to forget about every thing else.  Imagine New York lit up a Christmas tree with '$' all over it.  Why would they?  Holidays are a way to escape reality for a moment and concentrate all the focus on your family.  Maybe I take it too harsh on them, but it looks like now they are trying way too hard.

It will be good if many countries celebrate Bitcoin because that will help Bitcoin grow and still have value in the eyes of people who are not still interested in Bitcoin, I will be happy if my country celebrates like this but Bitcoin is not a legal currency in my country, my country don't even allow anything that concerns cryptocurrency because they always see it as something that did not have value to the country, my country also sees cryptocurrency as the reason why the country is not progress.

Many people get involved in cryptocurrency and they have become successful people in life today through Bitcoin but in my country is not legal, Those countries that celebrate it know what they have achieved in it that's why they are celebrating it, I will be happy to see my country celebrate like this but our leaders won't allow that to happen.

I feel El Salvador is carried away with the love that they have for bitcoin to the point that they are celebrating it alongside with Christmas. I know that the country has made huge profit from their bitcoin holdings, but that doesn't mean that they shouldn't do the right thing at the right time. They should have taken a special day to celebrate bitcoin this way to gain more attention and not on festive period. El Salvador motto should be 'BITCOIN TILL I DIE'.

Maybe you don't even need to create another thread on this, since there is a dedicated thread on El-Salvador's bitcoin adoption, you could have only made a reply there on the thread.

Regarding the said country, the entire world is proud of them because they have already set the model down for every others to follow, maybe this new year we are going into will be another increase for having a number of countries that will be adopting bitcoin as a legal tender as El-Salvador.

As the leading country on bitcoin adoption around the globe i hope this will be an annual celebration, i mean the lighting of bitcoin christmass tree not just because its in bull season because if I remember correctly, there's nothing like this last year.

It's interesting to see these transformations in the adoption of Bitcoin over time and how these new developments will be shaping the world in couple of years to come. Anyone else who's still thinking that Bitcoin is not the way to go will be running away from the reality but I know that sooner or later, bitcoin will become the new currency acceptable by the world or rather the world's most preferred currency.

El Salvador has a good vision towards the emancipation of the bitcoin-driven economy hence their position is driven towards leading other nations to such new developments. The financial freedom that comes with the decentralized technology is humungos and cannot be overemphasized, I see nations with socialist ideas quickly and quietly monitoring and adopting the new technology while others are still scared of the impact it can make in the grassroots economy.

Tbh it is still risky to have such investments especially for a country to a super volatile assets that could drop down their while capital in just a month and at the same time it could double their profit in the next few weeks. If you will consider the lost an investor may have you could think it's too risky to proceed. That's why there are only few countries that do the risk.
