El Salvador plans to host the first government-sponsored conference dedicated to Bitcoin. The event is set for November 12-13, 2025, in the historic center of San Salvador.
Conference Goals and Organization
The event titled 'Bitcoin Histórico' is organized by El Salvador’s National Bitcoin Office. It aims to showcase the future of Bitcoin and its impact on money, culture, and civilization. This event reflects El Salvador's commitment to cryptocurrencies following its decision to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender in 2021.
Notable Speakers and Participants
The conference will feature prominent Bitcoin advocates and industry leaders, including Ricardo Salinas, Max Keiser, Stacy Herbert, Jack Mallers, Jeff Booth, Pierre Rochard, Jimmy Song, Darin Feinstein, and Lina Seiche. These individuals have significantly influenced the global adoption of Bitcoin and its technical development.
Security Measures for Bitcoin Holdings
El Salvador’s National Bitcoin Office has implemented strategies to enhance Bitcoin custody and minimize risks associated with quantum computing attacks. This includes dividing funds into smaller amounts to reduce potential vulnerabilities. Approximately half a billion pounds in Bitcoin are currently held in multiple wallets.
The Bitcoin Histórico conference aims to solidify El Salvador's role as a key player in the Bitcoin world, emphasizing its function as a testing ground for cryptocurrency integration into the economy.
