> The argument that digital gold has no value outside of speculation usually comes from people in rich developed countries with a strong financial system. They can't imagine anyone lives in a country where it's illegal to hold certain currencies or assets.

How much money do these developing countries have to pump the price of Bitcoin from 0 to 65k??

This is New York and San Francisco buying , don’t kid yourself.

For sure it ain’t Lagos and and Caracas pumping the price to 65k
