I haven't been paying attention to non-bitcoin news much. I've seen a few videos of protests. How are things going there?

At first, yes! Watching all the plebs unite and rally against the status quo was encouraging
However, I was immediately hit with the terrified question "What's next ?". It's unlikely that the IMF is going to bail Sri Lanka out again with billions of dollars. The military is probably going to take over the country and rule over the people with an iron fist.
Call me a pessimist, but I'm afraid, there will be another bloody dictatorship.

how does this work when the country is bankrupt? who will pay the military soldiers? It sounds they have no money/credit to pay for for oil/gas...
seems like a terrible situation all around.

Pay? No one. In situations like this with no more rule of law, whoever has the monopoly on violence and firearms can decide how they want to be "paid" by forcibly taking other people's wealth and belongings (or whatever will be left of it).
Bloody times will come soon.
