Syria's economy is in a bad state, to put it very mildly. Not only has the Middle Eastern nation been battered by over a decade of war, the Assad regime, which has been in power since 1971, has now been overthrown by a jihadist group. The conflict, which began in 2011, has devastated infrastructure, displaced millions, and led to economic sanctions from Western nations. These factors have crippled the local economy and trade, leading to severe inflation. The Syrian pound (SYP), which was once relatively stable, has lost over 99% of its value since the war began whilst hyperinflation has turned basic goods, like bread and fuel, into luxuries for ordinary citizens.
In the face of these challenges, Syria has struggled to maintain monetary stability, with dwindling foreign currency reserves and limited access to global financial systems. However, hope may now be on the horizon since it has been announced that the Middle Eastern nation is planning to legalise Bitcoin, explore using it to back its national currency and use its energy reserves to mine it. This ground-breaking policy could transform not only Syria's economy but serve as a potential model for other nations in the region that are also grappling with inflation and economic instability.
