I am currently in Colombia, and there are many merchants accepting cryptos, including Bitcoin and Bitcoin cash.
I guess it is because their currency has lost 50% in value since the beginning of COVID.
On localbitcoins.com you can easily find some one who will buy Bitcoin for cash. I've done this myself and the fee is not very high.
You can also use a Bitcoin ATM but fees are a bit heigh on them and they take your picture just like regular ATMs, so it might be a little bit dangerous.
So to conclude it really depends where you are. I think that for example Medellin is a perfect hide out. And most things here are 4 times cheaper here than in Europe or the U.S.
