El Salvador also uses geothermic energy to mine bitcoin, and they have one of the largest strategic reserves of bitcoin. For them, it’s free money and they have billions of it to spend on things like their new prison system.

While its not paradise, that country is more forward thinking than most in the region and the world.

And the very smart president of El Salvador has some Muslim background>>>>>

Nayib Bukele was born into a family with diverse religious influences:
His father, Armando Bukele Kattán, converted from Christianity to Islam in the 1980s and became an imam. He founded four mosques in El Salvador1.

Bukele’s mother is Catholic1.

His paternal grandparents were Palestinian Christians who immigrated to El Salvador from Jerusalem and Bethlehem in 19211.

His maternal grandfather was Greek Orthodox, and his maternal grandmother was Catholic1.

Current Religious Stance
Despite his father’s conversion to Islam and his Palestinian heritage, Nayib Bukele has not publicly identified himself as a Muslim:

Bukele has not explicitly stated his personal religious beliefs since becoming president1.
