The teachers show a practical demo to students on how to receive Bitcoin through the Lightning network. Students are also educated on various topics such as nodes, double-spending, and Bitcoin halvings.
“The idea is that this be replicated in other schools around the world,” says an educator.
El Salvador Leading BTC Mass Adoption
After the adoption of Bitcoin as a legal tender last year, the country has made various contributions to mass adoption. President Nayib Bukele announced that the nation has been working to build an income and property-tax-free Bitcoin city in November last year.
Last month, the President launched a special Bitcoin Office to manage all cryptocurrency-related projects. It will also serve as a bridge to organize meetings between individuals and the President for Bitcoin and blockchain implementation in the country.
The country has been buying one Bitcoin per day since Nov. 18 and now holds over 2,458 Bitcoins, according to a website that tracks the portfolio of El Salvador. The Central American country is down by 61.82% on its Bitcoin holdings, with an unrealized loss of over $67 million.
