LATAM Bitcoin Adoption
summary
El Salvador makes Bitcoin legal tender and goes from 0% to 20% in 3 years — ATMs, restaurants and delivery apps accept sats and many workers take wages in Bitcoin; a 10‑week curriculum reaches 30,000+ students and is being packaged as a 10-week Bitcoin diploma taught in 25 countries while 700 public‑school teachers train for national rollout. Argentina reports roughly 10 million people (~25%) with crypto access; remittance firms already settle with BTC/stablecoins on the back end. Major barriers: lack of independent education, familiarity, cash/black‑market habits and scams.
