About this episode
Welcome, brand-new Bitcoiners! In this episode, Juan shares how Bitcoin started making sense to him through family conversations, the history of money, and what he saw happening in El Salvador. Brand-new Bitcoiners will learn why Bitcoin can matter more than “crypto,” how Bitcoin helps real people who don’t have easy access to banks, and why places like Bitcoin Beach and Bitcoin Berlin show what a circular Bitcoin economy can look like in real life.
