60 Minutes feature on El Salvador’s Bitcoin Beach will air Sunday
60 Minutes, the CBS news show that has been running since 1968, will feature El Salvador’s Bitcoin Beach in a new episode airing on April 10.
According to a Friday post from 60 Minutes’ Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) account, the investigative news show will air a segment on the crypto-friendly area of El Zonte, a village located in El Salvador where residents and visitors have been able to use Bitcoin (BTC) to pay for anything from utility bills to tacos. Sharyn Alfonsi, a journalist and correspondent for the show, interviewed Mike Peterson, one of the people who funded the project and encouraged crypto adoption among residents.
