Title: Bitcoin Preaches Financial Liberty. A Strongman Is Testing That Promise.

"Strongman"? No, no, no.

Nayib Bukele is the super-cool next generation of dictators. He eliminates political opposition and re-writes his Constitution with his baseball hat on backwards! He gets groovy ideas, like seizing USD remittances from Salvadorans working abroad via an app! An app called Chivo!

Nayib is not your father's "strongman". No, he's more like a bitcoin beach bro — liberating the masses from their worthless fiat. But like, ironically and with laser eyes.

The link is being interrupted somehow with another page not allowing for easy reading I don't know if I'm the only one had that issue. However linking your topic with the content of freedom to the link, the El Salvador adoption of bitcoin is an opening to other countries to believe in it and for second largest cryptocurrency, Ethereum to equally be adopted. Your message on the thread doesn't relate with the link content.
