Just like the "great resignation", the journalist has used a technically correct phrase, but it doesn't paint the real picture.
The headline sounds like they gave up on bitcoin altogether. They didn't. They switched their bitcoins to a different wallet.
They could instead have said that. "Most Salvadorans have switched to a different bitcoin wallet." It's just not sensational at all, so they didn't use that.

The article only says that "many living in tourist hot spots on the Pacific coast". "Many" is not the same as "most", and even then it's only talking about people in one region of the country.

- wccrawford 4y agoI assumed they didn't outright lie in the title, so I kept their "most salvadorans". If that's not true, then I think even worse of them for that title.
