El Salvador Trader Discuss Bitcoin As A ...

ERIC O'ROURKE
About this episode

In September of 2021, the country of El Salvador made Bitcoin legal tender. Shortly after, the price of Bitcoin dropped about 20%.

In this episode, I talk to a trading buddy who lives in El Salvador to discuss what it looks like to have Bitcoin as legal tender as well as his perception of it all.

After listening, head over to the website at https://www.stockmarketoptionstrading.net/ and join the discussion around stocks, options, and crypto in a positive constructive environment with absolutely no spam or trolls.

Thank you.
