    The country of El Salvador gets all the attention as being the first country to adopt #bitcoin, but it’s important to know that there is a small team, in a small village, that sparked all this. Those people don’t get the recognition they deserve. This thread brings more context.

    🤯 when you realized the president of the second country adopting #bitcoin has a PhD in mathematics. Here is his dissertation: pepite-depot.univ-lille.fr/LIBRE/Th_Num/1…

    Ripple/XRP was the first company that showed up in El Salvador to "help on the bitcoin law" back in 2021 Glad @stacyherbert and @maxkeiser showed them the door

    It's probably a good time to share some insights about our community banking application, the @Bitcoinbeach wallet. this is, to our knowledge, the first community bank build on @Bitcoin and @lightning. and this is no surprise that this is build in #ElSalvador @nayibbukele

    After spend a day with those central bankers, I can say: still a lot of education to do. Vast majority have no idea of the potential of bitcoin. But with El Salvador adopting #bitcoin, they now have a reason to dive into it

    Today I got charged $25 because I got lazy on my bank account and let it overdraft. ain't got much fiat around you know. This week, 20000 El Salvadorans have been using @Bitcoinbeach wallet and paid a total of 13879 sats, or $4.98 for using @lightning. This is why #bitcoin wins

    Replying to @nicolasburtey
    I spent time in late 2020 in El Zonte, El Salvador. It’s a village of 3,000 people. I was so excited when I arrived that I was looking at the first tienda to buy something in @lightning. Bought some milk, eggs and vegetable for $4.
