Chivo botched it in El Salvador in my opinion. Most people get on-boarded via Chivo which is custodial and then it just doesn't work.

I'm guilty myself. In a taxi with 3 Bitcoin Maxis we agreed to get our driver to install Chivo for the $2 to avoid the hassle of opening channels or making backups. Ended up awkwardly paying the poor guy ... I don't remember ... $6 in Chivo and $2 in cash as Chivo didn't work. Worst orange-pilling ever.

Other than that, half of the businesses that did accept Bitcoin even at Bitcoin Beach stopped doing so. Probably due to Crypto Winter.
