When a nation's currency faces total collapse, the situation becomes dire for ordinary people. Iran's currency has essentially become worthless in recent times, erasing purchasing power and destabilizing daily life. This scenario illustrates why decentralized alternatives matter—Bitcoin emerges as a viable hedge against currency debasement and hyperinflation. For populations in economically unstable regions, crypto assets offer a way to preserve wealth outside traditional banking systems that may fail under extreme fiscal stress. The case demonstrates how borderless digital currencies could serve as a practical lifeline during monetary crises.

The Iran case is interesting, but it depends on the data—local real adoption rate of holding BTC isn't that high, most are still exchanging dollars in underground markets. From an ROI perspective, preserving value ≠ increasing value; Bitcoin under extreme inflation is indeed better than nothing, but this isn't a long-term strategic opportunity.

This thing in Iran is indeed tragic, but can Bitcoin really provide emergency relief? That's just being optimistic.

Iran is right about this; the traditional financial system is a joke and should have been replaced by BTC long ago.

Is Iran just now starting to play with Bitcoin? They should have done this earlier...

NGL, what does this Iran thing tell us? The paper money we hold really can't be trusted.

This thing in Iran is really crazy, it feels like fiat currency is completely doomed... BTC is the only way out.
