New York Times Must Visit El Salvador
Even though the USA Travel Advisory recommends to “reconsider” travel here, people can not help but talk about the hot travel destination.
It is significantly safer than when we arrived 2 years ago. And the tourism here is growing with over 3 million tourists this year.
The Halving is Coming, Party, Visit Berlin
The halving is coming and there will be a halving party here in El Salvador. If you are coming to party, then make sure to book extra time to visit Berlin.
The halving event is when the 10 min block bitcoin reward will be reduced by 50%. This happens approximately every 4 years. As of now, the block reward is 6.25 coins per block and will decrease to 3.125 coins per block post halving.
