The recently concluded Bitcoin 2023 Conference in Miami, Florida, witnessed an exciting announcement that has the potential to impact Mexico's economy significantly. CEO of Ibex Mercado, Jose Lemus, took the stage to unveil a groundbreaking collaboration with Grupo Salinas, one of Mexico's largest corporate conglomerates. This partnership aims to revolutionise how millions of Mexicans pay their internet bills by introducing the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
The significance of this collaboration lies in the fact that Grupo Salinas owns numerous businesses across Mexico, and its founder, Ricardo Salinas Pliego, is not only a billionaire but also a well-known Bitcoin advocate. With such influential backing, the partnership drives widespread Bitcoin adoption among Mexicans.
