Heads up: Bitcoin adoption in El Salvador is decreasing.

1. A Bitcoin Mafia-Cartel is operating in the country from El Zonte.

2. The Mafia-Cartel is acting as a vortex, they want all Bitcoin businesses for themselves.

3. The Mafia-Cartel is not playing by the rules of the "free market".

4. The Mafia-Cartel is excluding everyone that does not bow to their "authority".

5. The Mafia-Cartel think they are above the law.

For those reasons I am staying away from most Bitcoin events in the country. I am still a Bitcoiner, but I will not bow down to anyone. Bitcoin is rules without rulers, and free market.

I am in El Zonte right now 😭

My experience in ES, though anecdotal, backs up what nostr:npub1wp4wzdvn25ckqxd6v6y46axpdx25hywu2mduhr5r9a5vzq5g7keq332ynk says here. Places outside of EZ do not accept Bitcoin, even some with signs that say they do. My one encounter where I tried to pay a Chivo wallet from Phoenix failed. I've been able to pay with #Bitcoin here, but everyone uses Blink wallet which has worked flawlessly at least.

This is such a bummer. I wish Alejandro posted more details about this Mafia so I could avoid giving them my sats.

What about second wallet you only have to keep the btc safe?

Take only the money you need to an other wallet.

Do I have mistake in thinking?

I'm not worried about them stealing it. I am wondering what businesses they run so I don't spend there.
