The country where you can buy anything with Bitcoin

It’s been nine months since the Central American country of El Salvador became the first nation to make Bitcoin legal tender.

The move has seen a boost in so called Bitcoin Tourism in El Salvador and millions of citizens have downloaded the government’s Bitcoin app.
