It seems that by day three of El Salvador’s financial inclusion conference, the central bankers are warming to Satoshi Nakamoto’s innovation, enjoying a trip to Bitcoin (BTC) Beach. 

El Zonte or "Bitcoin Beach" is the home of Bitcoin in El Salvador, an iconic destination for Bitcoin enthusiasts. It birthed the movement which led to El Salvador proclaiming Bitcoin as legal tender in 2021. Nicolas Burtey, co-founder of Galoy Money — the company that created the Bitcoin Beach wallet, told Cointelegraph that the bankers visited El Zonte to learn from the Bitcoin Beach team on Thursday, May 19.

Burtey told Cointelegraph that the sentiment towards Bitcoin was "super good," and that "nothing beats the experience of using lightning to discover the potential of Bitcoin." In a nod to Bitcoin adoption around the world, Burtey shared: 

The central bankers from countries including Paraguay, Ghana and Egypt descended onto the town to spend satoshis and interact with locals, including some local celebrities. Indeed, the bankers met with Mama Rosa, one of the first vendors to accept Bitcoin in El Zonte back in 2019 to buy pupusas, a Salvadoran flatbread snack:
