- Bolivia | Banks Limit Withdrawals as Digital Asset Usage and Inflation Climb

In Bolivia, where annual inflation has reached 25% and banks have been limiting withdrawal of US dollars to $100 a week, Bloomberg reports that Bolivians are turning to Bitcoin and digital assets as alternatives to the boliviano. “I’m not the only one using Bitcoin,” Christopher Salas, a coffee vendor in La Paz, said. “There’s a barbershop over there and a gym that also accepts satoshis.” For Salas, Bitcoin is both a hedge and a protest: “a way to preserve the value of my savings, but also a way to go against the system, against bureaucracy.” Bolivia’s hybrid authoritarian regime lifted a decade-long ban on digital assets in 2024. Since then, the volume of digital asset payments has grown more than fivefold to nearly $300 million in the first half of 2025. The University of San Andres allegedly pays its international faculty in Bitcoin. Carlos Neira, co-founder of Colombian wallet provider Meru, reports a staggering 6,600% increase in Bolivian users since the ban was lifted. FinancialFreedomReport.org
