萨尔瓦多是第一个使比特币成为法定货币的国家。尽管一些猜测对国家的影响给出了悲观的预测，但事情似乎正朝着相反的方向发展。
萨尔瓦多的旅游记录显示，2022 年上半年出现了巨大的增长。根据政府数据，该国今年增长了 82.8%，游客人数高达 110 万人次。
作为一个使用 BTC 作为其投标一部分的国家，价格下跌的影响应该会影响到这些数据。但增加的结果破坏了比特币的看跌趋势，该趋势从 2022 年 1 月 1 日起暴跌至 50%。
世界旅游组织 (WTO) 提供了记录，证实了萨尔瓦多的旅游声明。世贸组织数据 到 2022 年 1 月，该国位列旅游业显着复苏的国家之列。
世贸组织的报告称，2019 年最好的比较结果来自中美洲目的地。它强调了萨尔瓦多，与 2019 年或大流行前的水平相比增长了 81% 以上。
截至 2022 年 1 月，萨尔瓦多是国际公认的该地区旅游业复苏率最高的国家之一。

萨尔瓦多旅游业的高数字与《华尔街日报》对该国的报道相矛盾。 《华尔街日报》报道称，萨尔瓦多通过使比特币合法化来吸引游客的意图并未奏效。
但该国 2022 年上半年的访问数据已经超过了 2019 年的总值。该国去年的总访问量为 120 万。然而，它在今年六个月内已经有 110 万次访问。
自比特币在该国合法化以来，成千上万的比特币爱好者正在前往萨尔瓦多旅行。此外，比特币的大佬和摇摆人也访问了萨尔瓦多。其中包括 Jeff Booth（企业家和 Price of Tomorrow 的作者）、Obi Nwosu（Fedimint 首席执行官）和 Samson Mow（Jan3 首席执行官）。
一些比特币拥护者在访问这个中美洲小国时表达了他们的经历。例如，比特币分析师 Tone Vays 在谈到他对萨尔瓦多的访问时表示，全球约 99.9% 的人不知道该国的位置。有些人甚至不知道它的存在。
此外，一些以比特币为中心的公司热衷于支持萨尔瓦多的 BTC 走向成功。像 Max Keizer 和 Stacey Herbert 这样的比特币元老，现在居住在萨尔瓦多。
他们目前在那里进行播客和广播。截至发稿时，在该国居住的费用为 3 BTC。这是萨尔瓦多投资战略的一部分。
