This level of adoption places the Dominican Republic ahead of other <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/latin-america-based-projects-in-the-polygon-ecosystem-addressing-long-standing-problems-with-concrete-solutions/">Caribbean countries</a> in terms of the number of businesses accepting digital currencies. For comparison, Cuba has 32 such businesses, Puerto Rico has seven, and St. Martin has six. However, Curacao leads with 79 businesses accepting cryptocurrencies. 
As we have <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/the-shift-in-cryptocurrency-preferences-in-latin-america/">previously detailed</a> in Crypto News Flash, the increase in cryptocurrency adoption in the Dominican Republic is largely supported by the organization Bitcoin Dominicana. This organization promotes the use of Bitcoin and has noted a steady increase in the number of businesses accepting cryptocurrencies since last year. 
According to Bitcoin Dominicana, this trend is contributing to the development of a circular economy that benefits both business owners and the national economy. 
Additionally, Bitcoin Dominicana stated that the <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/latam-insights-crypto-initiatives-reshape-economic-strategies-in-paraguay-and-brazil/">growing number of businesses</a> that accept cryptocurrencies as a payment method indicates a strengthening economic environment. This environment supports the use of advanced technologies that offer benefits such as increased security and operational efficiency. 
<blockquote>
 “This indicates a consolidation of our circular economy into something special for participating business owners and our country,” according to the Bitcoin organization.
</blockquote> 
The data from BTCMap and the initiatives by Bitcoin Dominicana suggest that the Dominican Republic is becoming increasingly open to integrating cryptocurrencies into everyday business transactions.
