Fusitu’a stated that he had explained to Rabuka step by step ‘how Fiji can do Bitcoin legal tender like Tonga,’ and there could be two ‘Legal Tender Bills for the Pacific in 2023.’
Lord Fusitu’a explained to Cointelegraph in Twitter messages that ‘The new PM is definitely pro-Bitcoin’
‘He asked to meet with me which we did via zooms since last year to walk him through step by step, how he could adopt bitcoin legal tender.’”
