Such projects may push the adoption of Bitcoin as legal tender across Honduras as new development breaks ground.<\/p>\n<h2>The Central Bank of Honduras is cautious about Bitcoin<\/h2>\n<p>On adopting Bitcoin as legal tender, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/americas\/honduran-special-economic-zone-adopts-bitcoin-legal-tender-2022-04-07\/\">Honduras Prospera officials<\/a> said the zone's fiscal and administrative autonomy &#8220;enables crypto-innovation,&#8221; and allows for the use of Bitcoin by all entities established there.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Prospera's flexible regulatory framework enables crypto-innovation and the use of Bitcoin by residents, businesses, and governments.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>However, the elephant in the room is that Honduras Prospera is a geographically small area within Honduras and not the country itself. Established in 2020, Roat\u00e1n is still in the early stages of development and has not yet built the <a href=\"https:\/\/prospera.hn\/residences\">first residential units<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A statement by the Central Bank of Honduras points to friction among the country's chain of command. As a result, the central bank says it cannot back cryptocurrency, and activity of this type is solely the individual's responsibility.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Any transaction carried out with this type of virtual asset falls under the responsibility and risk of the person carrying it out.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Even so, what's happening with Honduras Prospera represents a broader uptrend to do with global cryptocurrency adoption.<\/p>\n<p>The latest <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.chainalysis.com\/reports\/2021-global-crypto-adoption-index\/\">Chainalysis<\/a> data shows that global adoption has grown by 881% for the year to Q2 2021. Much of this growth comes from emerging markets as locals turn to crypto to combat currency devaluation and access cheaper, more frictionless remittance services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Honduran officials announced on April 8 that the country will now accept Bitcoin (BTC) as legal tender but only in the special economic zone called Honduras Prospera.
