We all aware in what shape Venezuela is right now and what has she been through with a strong economic crisis. The major cause of the crisis is an exchange control that was launched in 2004. The exchange control prevents the acquisition of foreign currency and the regulation of prices in multiple products and raw materials. The government imposes the profit margin and sometimes the final price. As a result, many Venezuelans searched for different ways to earn money on the internet in foreign currencies and a lot of them came to Steemit. Venezuelans also saw in cryptocurrencies an opportunity to save, to invest and generate extra money income. Venezuela is one of the countries with greater adoption of cryptocurrencies.

This project wants to make a massive merchant adoption for Steem by attracting investment. They will start with a campaign to adopt 100 stores that accept Steem and SBD as a method of payment in the city of Caracas.

The merchant shall receive an induction about Steem and the use of the wallet and he needs to publicly announce through social networks the acceptance of Steem and SBD as a payment method. The project will invest 50% (2,5$) in advertising for the store and the merchant will open a Steemit account to the store and publish the introduceyourself post announcing commercial operations with the cryptocurrencies Steem and SBD. The person in charge of adopting the merchant will conduct an induction talk so that the company knows about Steem, Steemit, their community and how their wallet works.

This project needs 10$ for each affiliated store and for 100 stores it brings the amount of needed funds to 1000 dollars.
