Prospera in Honduras Uses Bitcoin as Unit of Account
This is an interesting development for an economy. Keeping track of expenses in BTC or satoshis only, will be a challenge during major price fluctuations.
It’s great to allow people and businesses to experiment with this unit of account in real situations.
It is something we are experimenting with in the Bitcoin Center in Berlin as well.

Small Businesses Benefitting from Growth
Small and medium sized businesses are a sign of health for an economy. A huge part of this growth is from the increased number of tourists in to the country.
El Salvador has smashed through it’s projections of 3 million people for 2023. And those tourist numbers have been traveling around the country spending money at the small and medium businesses.
A healthy sign for the future of El Salvador.
