Backstory of Berlín Circular Economy:
Evelyn and Gerardo, a Salvadoreño couple, started the project here in April 2023.
Since then, the Circular Economy has grown to include over 100 local merchants who each accept BTC payments.
As the months passed, a grassroots Bitcoiner community emerged.
April 2023 to February 2024… and we’re just getting started.
April 2024 is the one-year anniversary.
The halving… the global boom in Circular Economies.
Perfect timing for Bitcoin Berlín.

A variety of options range from camping to luxurious. Prices vary accordingly, ranging from about $30 to $100 per night.
Contact thenaturalinvestor on Telegram to secure your accommodation, guaranteed, paid in Bitcoin.
Transportation
We want to make it easy for you.
Buses will be arranged from El Zonte (Bitcoin Beach), after the festivities there.
Specifically, everyone who requests a seat ahead of time will be guaranteed a spot on a bus leaving from Los Amigos restaurant after the Bitcoin Farmers Market in El Zonte, at 3pm on Sunday, April 7th.
Stay tuned for more details. All updates will be posted on this Substack site, as well as this Twitter account.
Partners
We stand on the shoulders of giants.
Satoshi showed the world what’s possible with money in 2009.
Bitcoin Beach started showing what’s possible with Circular Economies in 2019.
President Nayib Bukele started showing what’s possible with Nation State Adoption in 2021.
Mi Primer Bitcoin started showing what’s possible with Education in Bitcoin Country soon after that.
The Legal Tender Law was announced to the world at a Bitcoin Conference. But the journey didn’t start there, and it didn’t end there either.
This event exists because of team effort:
Speakers
More details coming soon.
Stay tuned for follow-up posts.
Speaking slots will be divided between 10 minute solo talks and 20 or 30 minute panels.
Tickets
As a reminder, our scarcity for accommodation necessitates being deliberate in our allocation of tickets for this event.
Not all of the Halving Party visitors will be able to attend. Not all of the Bitcoiners who already live in El Salvador will be able to fit either.
We’ve decided to accommodate both separate groups in two separate tiers. The two prices are set depending on where you buy.
Standard price: $69
In-person discount price: $21
The discount incentivizes people to come visit one of the two Circular Economies here in Bitcoin Country. Specifically at two places:
The new Bitcoin Center here in Berlín
Bitcoin Farmers Market in El Zonte
