San Salvador, El Salvador — Paxful, the leading global peer-to-peer platform, today announced the launch of ‘La Casa Del Bitcoin’, a new education and training center in El Salvador providing free and accessible learning opportunities around Bitcoin.

The center will also house the Built With Bitcoin Foundation offices. They will provide events and meetups to build greater community participation and education.
Ray Youssef, CEO and co-founder of Paxful, said: “It’s no secret that Bitcoin is shaping the future of finance in El Salvador and beyond. From the small merchant to the Bitcoin enthusiast, we’re excited to learn from the people and share the power of Bitcoin for freedom and equal financial access.”
