    Branding and public image is a large part of currency circulation, as far as I’m aware. My first impression and instinctual thoughts on cryptocurrencies as a whole are vehicles for money-laundering and general fraud, even if there are examples to the contrary.

    Same reason why the Russian ruble or the Chinese Yuan aren’t generally used as foreign reserve currencies for the majority of nations - too volatile, and histories of manipulation.
