Mi debut en un podcast en español. 🎙️Charlamos sobre dinero, Bitcoin, la comunidad @Bitcoin Paraguay, la situación en Europa y mucho más. Fue todo un desafío tratar temas tan complejos en mi tercer idioma, pero creo que salió bien. 😅⚡
When Avi first came to me with the idea of filming a documentary about Paraguay and my story here, I honestly had no idea what to expect. Now, months after the shoot and seeing the final result of his and his team's hard work, I feel truly grateful and proud to have been part of it. The dedication and attention to every detail they put in is really inspiring. The official release is just around the corner, so it's time to grab a good Argentine Malbec and enjoy the show. Great job, my friend! Wishing you huge success with this project and the next episodes! 🤞 View quoted note →
People keep demanding the state pay for EVERYTHING - healthcare, education, safety, pensions, public spaces, science, sports, you name it. But nobody wants to admit the obvious: the government isn’t a magical ATM with infinite money. YOU pay for it - through your paycheck, your taxes, inflation and ultimately your future (and your kids’ and grandkids’ futures too). And yes, you’re forced to bankroll services you don’t use, policies you don’t want, and systems you never asked for. So tell me again - how is that “fair”?
With the success of the Accelerating Bitcoin conference and the rapid growth of the @Bitcoin Paraguay community, Paraguay is emerging as a leading Bitcoin hub in South America. The global Bitcoin community is beginning to recognize its tremendous potential, with many Bitcoiners relocating here from around the world. It’s only a matter of time before Bitcoin companies follow. Hard to imagine where we’ll be in 1, 5, or 10 years... 🤯 image

If you are planning to sell bitcoin for something else, think twice. Everything in this world is abundant compared to bitcoin (except for your time). Ask yourself: Would I make the same decision knowing that this bitcoin could be worth 5 or even 10 times more in 4–8 years? image
Holy sats, what a night! Our 11th Asuncion meetup at Cé La Vie was unreal. First time all in Spanish, with 150+ people, including tons of Bitcoin newbies! We onboarded 44 folks to Lightning wallets and sent them their first sats. 🤯 I’m still getting chills from the vibes! image Can’t thank our team enough for pouring their hearts and souls into this. Massive love to @Nelson, Juan P., Bruno V., @Lorena | Bitcoin, Sebastian M., Vivi C., @John James, and all the others who made it happen. You’re absolute legends! 🙌🙇‍♂️ Huge props to our sponsors: @npub13ljn...cfhw, Penguin Group, @npub1fvf0...fh76 and Trezor for having our backs. Special shoutout to Eason Jin for hosting us at Cé La Vie and to El Tejano for the killer food that fueled the party! 🙏 Wanna help us orange-pill Paraguay? Hit us up, follow our journey, or come see what we’re building IRL! You can also send some sats to donaciones@ln.bitcoinparaguay.org or you can also zap directly BitcoinParaguay. Thanks for all the love! 🧡🫶 image
I’m incredibly bullish on Bitcoin adoption in Paraguay. 🇵🇾 Last Saturday, our monthly meetup drew over 100 attendees. Tomorrow, the BitDevs meetup hosts ~50 participants, with 15 more on the waitlist (a technical event! 🤯). Then, this Saturday, a Bitcoin course at the local university for ~70 students. Pay attention, folks - something special is brewing here. 🚀
Asunción is currently the 4th most popular digital nomad destination in the world. 🤯 image
So much human capital is wasted because people aren't allowed to trade freely.
Provocative thought 💣: As someone running a business on the Bitcoin Standard and helping others accept Bitcoin payments, I deal with the challenges of Bitcoin's 4-year cycle daily. For businesses, this cycle is truly tough to navigate. In good years, you usually speculate on the upside and defer costs. But in bad years, you rush to pay costs quickly to avoid losses. Even healthy businesses with great products can fail if volatility and bad timing collide. Hedging becomes a necessity, adding another layer of complexity for often already complex businesses. For traders and speculators, Bitcoin's cycle is a blessing. But for businesses, it’s a planning nightmare. While volatility may decrease as Bitcoin matures, it’s still too significant to ignore. What can we do? Honestly, not much. Changing Bitcoin’s monetary policy at this stage is nearly impossible. Still, I can’t help but think: Would Bitcoin adoption as money improve if the monetary policy were executed more gradually? Instead of halving every 210k blocks and causing supply shocks, what if block rewards decreased gradually with each block, based on a similar mathematical formula? 🤔 I know this is controversial. Backlash welcome, but please be kind. 🙏
Paraguay can become the next Bitcoin country. It’s more likely than most people think. Of all the South American countries, it has the best conditions and highest incentives. If you're a Bitcoiner and want to be part of it, come and join us.
