This is Mauricio from BitcoinLife. I would like to have a share panel with other Bitcoin Tourism companies (as BitcoinTravel, Airbtc, etc) And talk about how bitcon has help with hotels, beach areas, Hospitality, experiences of El Salvador. Also a “Challenges and Opportunities in Tourism with Bitcoin” theme would be a strong angle for your panel, because it shows balance and credibility (not just success stories)

I think a lot of bitcoiners of all around the world has come to see whats going on in El Salvador and visiting is creating a positive impact with the economy, also a lot of companies has established here with the help of the 15 years tax free proposal from the Goverment.


This November, during the Adopting Bitcoin Conference, I would like to propose a panel discussion with other tourism-related companies. The panel would highlight how Bitcoin adoption has positively impacted El Salvador’s tourism sector—covering hotels, beach destinations, hospitality, and unique experiences.

Over the past few years, Bitcoin has attracted visitors from all around the world who come to see firsthand what is happening in El Salvador. This influx of Bitcoiners has created a meaningful boost to the local economy and generated new opportunities for communities across the country. In addition, the government’s 15-year tax-free incentive has encouraged many international companies to establish operations here, further driving growth in tourism and investment.

I believe this panel would provide valuable insights for the global Bitcoin community, while showcasing how El Salvador is combining innovation, hospitality, and economic development to create a one-of-a-kind destination.

A “Challenges and Opportunities in Tourism with Bitcoin” will help mentioning the following:
New Market of Visitors –
Payment Innovation –
Government Incentives – The 15-year tax exemption
Global Branding –

A Bitcoiner since 2017, I was among the first to share Bitcoin education through “Mi Primer Bitcoin.” The adoption of Bitcoin as legal tender in 2021 was a turning point in my life, fueling my vision to create and support initiatives that strengthen the ecosystem in El Salvador. Since then, I’ve expanded into tourism and real estate, combining innovation with projects that aim to bring lasting value to the community.
