An Iranian Bitcoiner's week in El Salvador, Bitcoin Histórico edition:

Next week the National Bitcoin Office puts a conference inside the National Palace (Nov 11–12). Tickets are bitcoin-only ($21 with a local DUI, $350, $2100). Keynotes stream free to LED screens on Plaza Gerardo Barrios; Sats Corner is open; nobody needs a VIP pass to stand in the plaza and learn.

Back home, open gatherings around money are hard, the internet is filtered, and a lot of "Bitcoin education" arrives through scam channels. That contrast is the whole point of writing Farsi lessons from here: the plaza model is education without a ticket.

Honest context, not a brochure: acceptance became voluntary after the 2025 IMF program, and the size/source of the state reserve (~7,827 BTC in early-Nov reports) is still disputed. Self-custody is still your job either way.

Ask for the Nostr community — especially anyone going to Histórico or El Zonte: what's one concrete Farsi education idea I should steal? Offline kits, plaza-style free sessions, what to teach first. I'll credit and turn the best answers into a lesson.
