Toyota, Yamaha and BYD accept USDT payments in Bolivia
Large international automotive companies like
#toyota ,
#yamaha and
#BYD have officially accepted Tether (USDT) as a payment method in Bolivia. This move is a notable turning point, demonstrating the increasing acceptance of crypto in the real economy, especially in countries facing financial instability.
A solution to the economic crisis
The acceptance of USDT in Bolivia comes amid the country's economic challenges, with foreign reserves dropping by 98% and the boliviano facing the risk of devaluation. Both individuals and businesses are turning to USDT as a stable alternative for transactions and importing goods.
Even Bolivia's largest bank has recognized crypto as a "viable and reliable solution," and has even signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with El Salvador to expedite crypto adoption.
Policies and future
The decision by the automotive companies comes just before the presidential election on October 19. Candidate Rodrigo Paz Pereira has pledged to integrate blockchain into governance to combat corruption, while his opponent has yet to provide a clear stance on crypto. This indicates that the role of crypto is becoming increasingly important in political agendas, not just as a financial tool but also as a solution to economic and social issues.
