This is a very reasonable write-up. Well done.

Been in ES since six months now and have only used bitcoin (or in some cases cash from the Chivo bitcoin ATM for, say, taking the bus).

Hotel and house rental, motorcycle/car rental, food, drink, restaurants/bars, surf gear, clothes...everything paid in bitcoin.

Convinced some places to start accepting bitcoin again (with the btc/usd rate drop after the bitcoin law and the last bull market, quite a few merchants stopped accepting it, but acceptance has started coming back with the rate increase these past few months).

The ability to simply just live using bitcoin, removing the mentality of needing to "cash out" to use it day-to-day, is probably a game-changer for many people.

"Most flights from Europe have a stop-over in Canada" -> I think there are direct flights from Madrid, and from France, for instance, Air France/Delta does Paris-Atlanta-San Salvador.
