Skipping El Zonte (aka bitcoin beach) but covering btc use seemed like an odd choice. I was told it was mostly used by bitcoin tourists and foreign idealists. It was funny being told by a shop they don't accept credit, but only bitcoin or cash lol.

Skimmed it, interesting thoughts overall.



Is Bitcoin Beach different from Bitcoin City? Because the latter is talked about extensively.


They're different. El Zonte (aka Bitcoin Beach) is a town that exists in the west of El Salvador, and Bitcoin City is a new development project being proposed in the east.
