El Salvador announces the organisation of an international summit on Bitcoin. The three-day event (16-19 May 2022) will bring 44 delegations from around the world to attend conferences promoting Bitcoin. El Salvador is expecting representatives from 32 central banks and 12 financial institutions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the countries represented, it is mainly developing countries that have decided to travel. This is not surprising, as Bitcoin represents a real opportunity for economic and social growth for the majority of these countries.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The African continent seems to be very interested in this phenomenon since 17 African countries will attend this meeting. <\/strong>Egypt, Senegal and Ghana are among them. The list of countries can be found in this tweet from the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
