El Salvador accepting bitcoin is a sign that small nations can get colonized big nations. Think about it. If china owns 40% BTC in the world, they could literally buy El salvador types. Relying on crypto is potential threat for small 2nd and 3rd world nations. I mean if small island like UK ruled 70% of the planet and enslaved cultures. Imagine what crypto can do to the small nations who barely got independent?

That’s not how it really works, Yes BTC holders like a country could influence another country short term but long term they’ll run out of money to influence things that’s how american became wealthy by storing all the gold for European nations post Ww2 then they spent that gold to fund the Cold War abs Vietnam war and when their reserves got low they broke the gold standard Limited supply means limited influence
But that's not how asia and africa was invaded. the locals were bought out by portugals, spaniards and brits all over. it was pure money power before the army power that lead to colonization.
I can’t speak for Asia but that didn’t last long after the trades stopped as the locals had enough they were forced into it through slavery an early it wasn’t exactly a fair free market exchange
I guess that leaves only option of singular govt through communism!
