Did you miss the part where El Salvador made it one of its official currencies?

Official currency != Sovereign currency.

El Salvador also had the US dollar as an official currency, does that mean they get to sue you if you destroy US dollars or devalue the currency (as the US can do)? Of course not, because while it's a currency the Salvadoran government agrees to accept, it's not actually their sovereign currency.

It doesn't really look like a roaring success as of now.
