Is your last paragraph based on specific knowledge, or are you just assuming that since USD isn't legal tender, it's not used as currency? My understanding is that USD is used as currency throughout the world.
It's not specific knowledge. I tried to look it up, but I didn't get anywhere.
In case it helps, I spent some time in Kenya, and in the remote poor rural area I was in, it was all Kenyan shillings - no dollars.
