Ja ist ja klar, dass es dem Bankensystem nicht passt, wenn man ein System implementiert was nicht von ihnen kontrolliert werden kann. Die Proteste werden auch nicht ganz ohne Manipulation von Außen stattfinden. Wogegen genau protestieren die Leute überhaupt?
Vielleicht sollte man sich erst einmal informieren, bevor man hier Vermutungen raushaut?
Bukele hat neben dem Bitcoin-Gesetz einige weitere Baustellen, mit denen er sich mehr Macht verschafft. Nicht alle Bürger finden das toll.
Der folgende Artikel von Alex Gladstein von der Human Rights Foundation gibt da gute Einblicke. Gladstein war vor Ort und hat dort viele Leute direkt befragt.
Der Artikel ist sehr lang, daher die Kritikpunkte in der Bevölkerung kurz zusammengefasst:
Over the last three months, the Bukele administration has operated in an opaque manner. Until the last second, no one knew which companies were hired to build the apps, ATMs and backend. No one knows what the government is going to do with the bitcoin it bought. No one knows exactly how the $150 million trust — established to provide liquidity for citizens who wish to trade their bitcoin for dollars — is going to work. Instead of sharing these details in a traditional manner, Bukele leaks them live, on occasion, through his Twitter account, personifying digital populism.
At the same time that the Bitcoin bill came into effect, Bukele’s government also announced that it would be purging more than 100 judges. The Supreme Court (which Bukele had stacked with his own supporters earlier this year) also ruled that he would be able to run for another presidential term in 2024, violating the constitution. The Human Rights Foundation, where I am employed, has been one of many international organizations to strongly criticize Bukele’s anti-democratic actions.
The contradiction is striking. On the one hand, there is a government rolling out a new currency to its people that cannot be debased, censored or remotely confiscated. On the other hand, the same government is following the blueprint Hugo Chávez used in the 2000s in Venezuela to consolidate power, only much faster.
Es ist also eine Mischung aus Misstrauen gegenüber Bukele generell, weil er seine Macht ausbaut und wie die Einführung des Bitcoin-Gesetzes generell verlief.
So haben viele Leute Bedenken, dass die aktuellen Zustände den Zuständen ähneln könnten, als der Dollar dort eingeführt wurde:
However, according to Silvia Borzutsky, a professor of political science at Carnegie Mellon University who studied El Salvador’s dollarization, the policy “had extremely negative effects on the lowest-income groups without doing much to help the overall economy.”
A 2002 survey conducted by the Instituto Universitario de Opinion Publica showed that only 2% of Salvadorans considered dollarization an achievement, while 62.2% thought it had been damaging to the nation. Another 2002 survey by the University of Central America found that 61% of Salvadoran respondents said that dollarization had a “negative effect on their personal economic situation.” According to a University of Central America paper, “the most benefited sector from the dollarization process has been the financial system, which no longer faces the risk that its payments will be increased from possible devaluation decided by the political circle.”
...
Dollarization is a painful memory for many Salvadorans, and the idea of a new top-down currency change is scary. This summer’s sudden announcement and implementation of the Bitcoin law brings back old fears.

Das ist so in etwa auch mein gedanke gewesen und auch ich frage mich gegen was die dort protestieren !
