by

In a whimsical twist of fate, Poland, the land of potatoes and pierogies, has outwitted the once-mighty El Salvador in the great game of Bitcoin ATMs. With a sly grin and a flick of the wrist, Poland added 10 new cryptocurrency kiosks on January 27th, elevating its collection to a grand total of 219. It’s a tale of David and Goliath, but with digital coins and Eastern European flair. 🎩✨
