Bitcoin's Impact on Costa Rica: A Lightning Rumble in the Jungle | Lee Salminen

This time we spoke to (Lee Salminen) @lee , co-founder of @BitcoinJungle, a transformative initiative in Costa Rica that seeks to revitalize the local tourism sector through Bitcoin adoption! Inspired by the success of the Bitcoin Beach project in El Salvador, Bitcoin Jungle has emerged as a rapidly growing community championing the power of Bitcoin.

Lee has been instrumental in educating local vendors about the advantages of Bitcoin, helping them understand and embrace its potential, and acting as a vital intermediary in ensuring a smooth transition to this novel payment system. With hands-on efforts, he’s been pivotal in promoting a circular Bitcoin economy, bridging the gap between skeptics and early adopters, and laying the groundwork for a financial revolution in Costa Rica.
 
 Lee is doing an amazing job. 🫂🫂🫂
