Inside Adopting Bitcoin 2025: Innovation, Community & Connection in El Salvador
Adopting Bitcoin returned to El Salvador this year with another powerful edition — two days filled with education, innovation, and real conversations about the future of Bitcoin in the country. Hosted at the Salamanca venue, the conference brought together builders, investors, entrepreneurs, and everyday Bitcoiners exploring what this technology means for the next chapter of El Salvador.
For us at Goodlife El Salvador, it was an incredible opportunity to connect with our community, share insights, and support the momentum happening around Bitcoin-driven growth and investment in the country.
1. A Dynamic Venue: Multiple Stages, Spaces & Experiences
This year’s conference unfolded across several dedicated areas inside Salamanca, making it easy for attendees to explore sessions based on language, focus, and interest.
The venue featured:
- A main English Stage with global Bitcoin leaders
- A Spanish Stage designed for the Salvadorean community
- A VIP area for networking and investor meetings
- An Expo hall filled with art installations, Bitcoin products, and vendors
From technical discussions to cultural conversations, the environment felt alive with innovation — reflecting just how much Bitcoin has grown in El Salvador.
2. Goodlife at the Expo: Thank You for Stopping By
Our team was present at the Goodlife booth throughout the event, and we want to thank every single person who came by to say hi, ask questions, or share their experience in El Salvador.
Meeting new people exploring real estate in El Salvador, relocation plans, or simply curious about the opportunities emerging here is always inspiring. These conversations make what we do meaningful, and we’re grateful for every connection formed.
3. Reconnecting With Friends, Clients & the Goodlife Community
One of the best parts of Adopting Bitcoin is seeing familiar faces. We were able to reconnect with old clients, friends, and long-time community members — catching up, sharing updates on new developments, and strengthening relationships that have grown over the years.
El Salvador is changing fast, but the community that continues to return and support the country’s growth remains one of its greatest strengths.
4. A Space for Entrepreneurs, Art & Local Flavor
Outside the conference halls, attendees could enjoy an open area dedicated to entrepreneurs, local artists, and food vendors. From handcrafted pieces to specialty coffee, snacks, and drinks — everything could be paid in Bitcoin, giving visitors a real taste of how BTC works on the ground in El Salvador.
It’s one of the most unique aspects of Bitcoin events here: you don’t just talk about Bitcoin — you live it.
5. Roman on Stage: The Story & Future of Bitcoin Beach
Our co-founder Roman Martínez also took the stage to speak about the ongoing journey of Bitcoin Beach, the first Bitcoin circular economy, and a project that helped inspire El Salvador’s national adoption.
Roman shared the vision behind the movement, the community-driven work happening in El Zonte, and how Bitcoin continues to empower Salvadorans while inspiring similar models globally.
His message resonated strongly with attendees who came to El Salvador precisely to learn from this transformation.
