Why is a Guatemalan mayor mining Bitcoin? Tackling FUD with biogas and BTC

The (BTC) community is at it again, dismantling FUD and orange-pilling officials in far-flung destinations.

At the foot of Lake Atitlán, a bucolic yet impoverished region of Guatemala, a Bitcoin project has managed to get a miner into the hands of the local mayor. The process has boosted local incomes while also improving the air quality.
