Issue #66 - Bukele is in the black and takes a break ;-)
Nation state adoption is paying off and people like Samson Mow are still pushing.
Hola 👋
Another great week and lots of exciting things happening here in Berlin, El Salvador and the world with Bitcoin.
Long story short. Learn Bitcoin.
Start with a Lightning Wallet, try on-chain bitcoin into a software wallet, try a hardware wallet and go even further with a node.
Thank you for reading. Have a great week.

El Salvador Bitcoin DCA Paying Off
DCA or Dollar Cost Averaging an investment is one of the best strategies generally and especially during a down market.
Bukele made a tweet to say he would buy 1 BTC everyday from the lowest point in the market last year.
One BTC per day https://twitter.com/nayibbukele/status/1593113857261965312

Bukele Takes Six Months of Leave
There has been some FUD Fear Uncertainty Doubt around this move. But my understanding is that this enables him to legally run for a second term.
Personally we are not concerned about this. We look forward to another term of Bukele building Bitcoin Country.
Samson Mow on Nation State Adoption
El Salvador has lead the way and Samson Mow shares some insight on his conversations with other nations that are considering Bitcoin.
Some interesting insights and worth listening to if you are interested in the global adoption of Bitcoin at a nation level.
Enjoying what you just read? Why not tell a friend? Or send some Satoshis. It keeps us motivated.
