This was in line with my experience in El Salvador in June of this year as well…if you don’t specifically seek out a business because you already know it accepts bitcoin, it’s not going to take Bitcoin.
Of the businesses in El Salvador marked on a map as supposedly accepting bitcoin (in bitcoin hotpots like Bitcoin beach), ~1/3 wouldn’t actually accept it for some reason or another.
That said, Bitcoin acceptance in El Salvador was still much better than I expected (perhaps my expectations were too low).
With a bit of planning, patience and persistence it is possible to have an entire trip in El Salvador using only Bitcoin
