On March 30, the local affiliate of the largest and most influential open television station in Brazil talked about a significant Bitcoin (BTC) adoption going on in Rolante, a small town in the south of the country.
Shared by the X (formerly Twitter) account Bitcoineaqui, the story highlights the ongoing adoption and briefly explains what is Bitcoin. The 3-minute report was aired by RBS TV, a Rede Globo affiliate, and leading mainstream media group in Brazil.
Notably, Ricardo Stim ignited the adoption by taking to Rolante’s merchant association and suggesting they accept Bitcoin for payments.
“In one month [of the project] we became the largest Brazilian city to accept Bitcoin; in two months the world’s largest. Today we are, by far, the largest town worldwide [accepting Bitcoin]. We have one point [of sale] for every 105 residents, while the second-largest has one point for every 5,000 residents.”
