That's a fair point and this is truly an international movement. El Salvador has a lot to be proud of. I was aware of that Hong Kong ETF, though from my vantage point, it's hard to tell how big of a deal that is.

I think I'm trying to make the point of "this isn't just good for bitcoin — it's also good for America." And pretty much any country could make that case.

Uncle Sam says thank you very much

I might not be up at-date with ETFs, and might be wrong, but perhaps your article should mention that other countries pipped the U.S. to the post in approving spot Bitcoin ETFs the range of discussion in the article might have increased - I believe that Hong Kong is one example:

There's surely an interest to be first, or early, in approving spot Bitcoin ETFs - but I think that seeing it in a worldwide context would be even more thought-provoking.

If you expand your article and reflect on this - you might do an even bigger game theory deep dive.
