Issue #50 - Bukele is impressing international eyes and building wealthier relationships
Bukele's plan appears to be working as JP Morgan praises. And Argentina might go bitcoin standard?
Hola 👋
As humble plebs here in El Salvador, we look at what Bukele is doing and can only be impressed at how well and quickly him and the team are making progress.
People who want to knock his progress with F.U.D (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) often don’t want to acknowledge the positive news.
This doesn’t feel like a random dictator looking to line his own pockets. He keeps feeling like he is proud to build this nation and prove the haters wrong.
Thank you for reading. Have a great week.

JP Morgan Likes the Direction of the Economy
Bukele is making the most of the positive praise from international on-lookers.
So many people have been negative and doubters, but as time goes on, it appears clear that Bukele has a had a plan from the beginning.
As the results are not being missed.
Argentina Ready to Try Bitcoin?
The open primary for Argentina's presidency was won by Javier Milei, who favors Bitcoin and advocates for abolishing his country's central bank.
A country that is suffering from hyper-inflation of its currency, it appears someone is ready to take a stand against the situation and try what appears to be working for El Salvador.
We are curious to watch how this plays out.

Freight Ferry to Costa Rica
This new freighting option will significantly cut down transport times from 96 hours, to 18. Also cutting down the 3 boarder crossings to 1.
We can only image services like these are all about building better transport relationships with wealthier nations that will help to lift El Salvador as it grows.
Will be interesting to see if they accept public passengers.
