1732 sats \ 7 replies \ @JoeNakamoto OP 27 Dec 2022 \ on: What it’s actually like to use Bitcoin in El Salvador – Cointelegraph Magazine bitcoin
Hi everyone, my name is Joe Nakamoto. I write, report and make content about Bitcoin around the world.
I recently posted this deep-dive about Bitcoin use in El Salvador to Cointelegraph magazine.
I know Cointelegraph isn't widely read in the Bitcoin space so thought I'd crosspost it over here.
I hope it can benefit, entertain or inform Bitcoin people around the world.
Love and sats!
Joe
"I soon observed that confusion around Lightning and Bitcoin Basechain is prevalent across El Salvador. "
Hard to understand why there was no significant highlight of "Use Lightning" in the govt campaign one year ago...

Yeah government intervention in education is currently minimal. Thankfully 'Mi Primer Bitcoin' and 'Hope House' exist to remedy the situation; that, and Bitcoiners who travel there from all around the world to spend sats and share knowledge.

I hope the situation will improve till the $100k-200k price tag, and then El Salvador will be a nice place to retire ;)
