I'm flying to Mexico on Monday and I'm wondering what traction bitcoin has there? I'm moving there from the Czech Republic for work indefinitely. The first few days I will be in Mexico city and then in Queretaro city. Do you have any experience with using bitcoin in Mexico? Are there any shops accepting bitcoin? How strong is the bitcoin community there? Is it possible to anonymously exchange bitcoin for cash in the local currency there? Share your experiences.

Hey @BubeniCZECH, thanks for sharing here. For what I can see, there are plenty of shops and merchants accepting bitcoin in Mexico City https://btcmap.org/map#10/19.36816/-99.25323
ad a bit less in Queretaro https://btcmap.org/map#11/20.60258/-100.31479

I'd recommend joining a meetup in Mexico city if it coincides, there's this one that will definitely welcome you https://www.meetup.com/eventos-en-bitcoin-embassy-bar/
This other one is in Spanish, so you can connect with the local community! Not sure whether it's your bite yet https://www.meetup.com/bitcoin-only-meetup/
DM on nostr if you need trusted peers there, cheers
