a meaningful solution to the country, persistent humanitarian crisis. now the opposition did agree to elections, to take place later in november. that is arguably, one of the biggest achievements actually took place even before the start of the 2nd round of the go to the big question right now is over. what this all means. 4 regarding international sanctions spearheaded by the united states, the bind administration has hinted that the us would be would consider the lifting of sanctions if meaningful progress was made during this talk. very the thought. but all of that remains to be seen in the end of this could be seen these last 4 days of negotiations could be seen as a positive step toward mending that political divide in venezuela. but the door is now open for a 3rd round of negotiations to take place later this month. i'll salvador has become the 1st country in the world to adopt bitcoin as legal,
1:45 pm
tender president has declared the future for the country. but economists a warning the using the volatile an unregulated crypto currency is a risk. john home and reports from l. zante, a surfing town where a bit coin pilot project could forecast what's ahead. this is where are some of those big quint experiment? again, it was on a small surf with 3 years ago and anonymous don't take a local people, digital it with the crypto currency. now the country is expanding the experiment nationwide. and so with those about to become the 1st country in the world to use big coin as legal tender, it will run. it's another option alongside the current currency, us solar. we travel twelves on tape to find out how the pilot program is gone and what it could mean the rest of the country. we found plenty of. infuse, just like 70 percent of people in el salvador doesn't have a bank account. he's big coin. well, it's a way for him to put some money aside, but i have a low income. i don't move much money a little i have,
