The world is watching! Bitcoin has now become legal tender in the Central American country of El Salvador.

All businesses in the country will now be expected to accept Bitcoin, starting today.

One big benefit to the citizens is that  they can download the digital wall app provided by the government with $30 worth of Bitcoin included in the wallet for free.

Bitcoin and the U.S. dollar will operate concurrently as the country’s currency.

It will be interesting to see what country will be next.
