Issue #94 - Possible Bitcoin Investment Banks?
Bitcoin has been legal tender for almost 3 years and there is no solid banking integration... is that about to change?
Hola 👋
Thank you for reading. Welcome.
Living in El Salvador can be a lot like camping. It’s not for everyone. But anyone can come along and see what it’s all about.
We are here for adoption. As this is a great opportunity in the world. The uncommon path is normally not the easy path.
Have a great week.
Nicki & James
Week 97 - Cafe303 in Bitcoin City and our life in Berlin El Salvador:
A funny show this week, Alby not working, rain noise kicking in, power going out.
But some gems of information for people moving here in the comments.
Watch the video here.
Private Investment Banks for Bitcoin
Fiat banks in El Salvador have put up huge resistance to bitcoin. Often making people lives hard here even though bitcoin is legal tender as a currency.
This proposal is an interesting idea that I hope gains traction and can find creative ways to provide liquidity locally.

Learn to Invest from the Best
Investing with Sound Money is not necessarily difficult. But like most things in life, it requires turning up and discipline.
Investing in the current fiat systems is literally a full time job, and amateurs are up against the people who created the system and do it full time.
Invest smarter. Learn from Saylor.

Reforestation Project with 4 Million Trees
There are a lot of perspectives to take from this project. After living here for over 2 years and learning most of the food is imported from neighboring countries. And meeting local medicinal Sharman. It is great to see such a project.
Enjoying what you just read? Why not tell a friend? Or send some Satoshis. It keeps us motivated.
