SLOVENIA is set to open a bitcoin city in its largest shopping mall in Ljubljana, where customers can pay for goods simply using bitcoin and cryptocurrency, operating via blockchain technology, in a world first.

Good news for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency world !

I invite you to read the full article from here:

How come those news are good for BTC and the crypto world?This is Ljubljana,not New York or London.
What happend to the idea of an crypto island,or a crypto state?Nothing,because nobody was interested.
I really doubt that people in Slovenia are hardcore crypto fanatics. Grin


But the main purpose i think is to attract peoples around the world and promote tourism in the region, national economy, and they can even expand their business and sell over internet etc ... So, in your opinion this will add no value to cryptocurrency world ?

The aim also will be to attract blockchain industries and companies.
I think also there would be a big tourism factor and yet again raises big awareness for bitcoin and for crypto.
With around 500 stores visitors with bitcoin ciuld find it hard to keep their coins.

https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/971527/bitcoin-news-slovenia-bitcoin-city-Ljubljana-cryptocurrency-btcBTC City houses over 500 retails stores and strecthes over 1,558,398 square feet.

There is the issue that maybe people are reluctant to spend their coins instead opting to hodl for higher prices.
