I was listening to a podcast this morning and the fellow was talking about Latin America, bitcoin adoption, Bukele. He noted how it seems that developing and pre-developed nations seem to jump into bitcoin or crypto more eagerly than the comfortable wealthy nations. That, and those nations with political and/or economic unrest are getting in. Likely he's correct. Of course, Milei came up.
As far as I can tell, Milei hasn't said too much about bitcoin or cryptocurrency but has more of a use-whatever-money-you-want mentality. I guess, money-neutral might be a phrase to apply. The podcast speaker mentioned that Argentinians might well use bitcoin or a stablecoin (Tether was mentioned).
This made me wonder about Hive and HBD. I know Hive has a big following and usage in Venezuela. I wondered:
Anyone know of any stat sources on this? Maybe @brianoflondon has a bit of insight from the https://v4v.app?
