Great post, although you get me thinking about an issue that I would say tests my ethics and my conviction of how unnecessary politicians are for societies, so the concept of "Benevolent Dictator" to refer to the Salvadoran president seems shocking to me but certainly serves as a topic for a great debate.
Bukele is a very intelligent man (something I find hard to say about the President of USA, Germany, France or Venezuela), I am convinced that he assumed the adoption of BTC after considering the absolute uselessness of the local fiat currency and the absence of control over the US dollar, the main cryptocurrency turns out to be the most important option to give some independence to his government, to implement all reforms he has in mind without the consequences of the possible economic sanctions that Republican and Democratic governments usually apply to any leader who deviates from their designs.

el salvador is very unique in that they already had their banking crisis long ago, opting to replace their fiat with usd. that alone makes it much easier for them to adopt btc, as there is no conflict of interest.
