That’s an opinion I’ve held for years, at the same time as I used to be rolling out the service in new international locations. When bitcoin is banned, it forces you to deploy [your] service in a censorship-resistant style. When it is not banned, you do what you may and hope for the perfect. In Nigeria, earlier than they blamed Binance for the financial fallout, they first unbanned bitcoin after which blamed Binance for why the Nigerian Naira is falling. If bitcoin is banned, that’s the most ultimate [situation] you might have as a builder in Africa. Sure, it forces you to do issues in a cumbersome, decentralized, censorship-resistant style, however I feel that’s the approach to go.
