Remittance Firms Undecided to Support BTC despite Legal Tender Law in El Salvador as Bitcoin Reclaims $40,000
Recently, El Salvador adopted Bitcoin as a legal tender by law. According to reports, Remittance firms operating in El Salvador are reluctant to support Bitcoin despite the country’s new law. The parliament has enacted a law mandating the crypto asset as legal tender but local remittance firms are reportedly hesitant to adopt Bitcoin. According to analyst Kenneth Suchoski of Autonomous Research fintech indicated that remittance firms may not have support for Bitcoin and other crypto-assets until prompted to do so by customer demand. These constraints will create a stalemate for the local payments industry. He also said: “For Western Union and some of the other remittance providers, keep in mind that most of the volume in the remittance industry is going from developed markets to emerging markets primarily to people — families and friends — that operate in cash,” Suchocki added that less than 1% of global cross-border remittances are done through crypto-assets. He remarked that: “To the extent that bitcoin isn’t adopted and there’s not widespread acceptance, these remittance providers are still going to be relevant for the years to come.”
