zamanibitcoin on Nostr: Tomorrow El Salvador's National Palace turns into a Bitcoin conference stage. Bitcoin ...
Tomorrow El Salvador's National Palace turns into a Bitcoin conference stage. Bitcoin Histórico runs Nov 11–12, organized by the government's National Bitcoin Office. Locals get in for $21 with their DUI, and the side stage in Plaza Gerardo Barrios is free.
As an Iranian living here, that still feels unreal. Back home, a lot of beginners first meet "crypto" through scam channels on Telegram, behind filtering and shaky VPNs.
I won't oversell it: since the 2025 IMF deal, accepting bitcoin is voluntary for businesses here. But education travels better than laws do.
Two items on the agenda caught my eye: a "Teaching the Next Generation" panel on Wednesday and a "Bitcoin Diploma 2.0" keynote on Thursday. My First Bitcoin's Bitcoin Diploma already has a Farsi translation on GitHub (CC BY-SA), and I'm reviewing it for Iranian readers.
Has anyone actually taught with the Farsi version, or with any translated Diploma? What broke when it met real students on phones with bad connections?
