I believe it all takes time, and perhaps a strong economy to put up with times. In this day and age, the fiat currency is no longer as efficient as it was before because of inflation rate. At the rate it is going now, the value of fiats have greatly declined.

I hope this consideration in BoK will open doors to all other cryptocurrencies.
