I’m surprised there is no thread on this yet. It’s a pretty big deal. Is this a good idea or a terrible mistake?

I think it’s a good idea if implemented properly.El Salvador has become the first country in the world to adopt bitcoin as legal tender after Congress passed President Nayib Bukele's proposal to embrace cryptocurrency. With bitcoin legal tender, just as the dollar, the country has set its sights on attracting miners.
After all the clamoring about "greening" bitcoin mining, Bukele has offered miners "cheap 100% clean, 100% renewable, 0 emissions" energy. In fact, the president said the state-owned geothermal electric company LaGeo SA de CV will offer miners geothermal electricity powered from "our volcanoes.”
