We already have 25+ merchants accepting Bitcoin around Asunción, with more joining every month. But education is just as crucial. That’s why, with the help of Trezor Academy (@Josef Tětek), we’ve started hosting Bitcoin for Beginners workshops before each of our regular meetups. 🚀 We’re building a true Bitcoin hub in Asunción, and solid education lays the foundation for further adoption - not just here, but across Paraguay. We know we can’t accomplish this mission alone, especially with limited resources we have. However we believe in creating momentum that will orange-pill a critical mass of people and trigger a domino effect. 💥 If we get enough business owners and influential people on board, Paraguay could easily become the next Bitcoin country. The impact of our hard work is already visible, but we’re still just getting started. We need more builders - locals and foreigners - who can join our forces or start their own Bitcoin projects. And we need sponsors to help sustain our efforts in the long run. Therefore I would like to thank our long-term sponsors, Hacking Lives (), Trezor () and @Blink Wallet, for their support. 🫶 If you run a company and are interested in sponsoring us, please reach out. We would like to scale our activities and expand our impact, but that's only possible with the right funding. 🚀
The 5th Bitcoin meetup in Asunción was a big success! We had 110 attendees, two presentations in Spanish, LN onboarding, and food and drinks available for purchase with #Bitcoin! ⚡️ Huge thanks to our sponsors @Blink Wallet & Hacking Lives for making this possible! 🙏🧡
