Adopting Bitcoin | El Salvador Bitcoin Documentary - El Primer Pais

[@lbar97]

Salvadorians still can't understand what bukele has done for them in such a positive way with bitcoin. Happy to see El salvador grow ....

[@getbasedtv]

I think they are noticing it in a big way when it comes to tourism, and I imagine that will continue to compound over the next few years. The international image of El Salvador is radically changing in a positive way!

@Kinetic Finance that is awesome. Amazing. beautiful humble people..

[@CrisTooR]

How did this video not go viral yet! Really well done, I enjoyed every second of it and feel quite inspired.

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks so much CrisTooR! I am working on trying to get it out to more people! If you enjoyed it, please feel free to share it with anyone that you think would enjoy it as well!!

Great video as always Julian, I liked the comparison of the separation of Church and State and the separation of Money and State that is now finally possible. One key update that has surfaced since you were here: The govermentment's Bitcoin ATM project is currently at a little over 200 machines out of the 1500 that were initially mentioned.

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks! I wonder where the rest of the Chivo ATMs will be going. I was surprised there were none in El Tunco or El Zonte!

[@ChadCardiff]

Great content as always, Julian! Very professionally edited as well. Well worth the wait!

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks Chad! Glad you enjoyed it! Part 3 will be coming hopefully sometime early/mid-April - it will be all about the current President of El Salvador Nayib Bukele!

[@aquaphazed]

Fantastic job on this documentary. The content and editing exceed what I would expect from Netflix. Hopefully more people find your work and share it. I will share this video with those I come across that are interested in El Salvador leading on this issue. Viva 🇸🇻

[@getbasedtv]

Hey aquaphazed! So glad you enjoyed the documentary :) I hope more people see it soon too and I really appreciate you sharing it!

[@full_disclosure_now5844]

man it s clear YT is shadowing you, so cool vids, so little views, BUT KEEP DOIN THEM! we love it! much love from ITaly

[@getbasedtv]

aww thanks so much! The view count isn't discouraging - just growing pains :) comments like this make it all worth it - I really appreciate that you watch and enjoy my films! Many more to come!

[@full_disclosure_now5844]

@@getbasedtv keep on going please. Also I think the word 'based' in your channel name makes the algo go mad and shadowing you, go check out research from Robert Epstein on this kind of things. They (Google) don't want this amazing content to get to the masses, it would destroy the fiat system. It s not by chance that TRADING btc videos have 100k views vs yours... They want the normies to think btc is just a trading object (not so noble after all) vs an actual solution for communities such as El Salvador, Peru etc. But keep on going, God bless satoshi

[@THEBTCSTACKER]

Just subbed! Headed to El Salvador in a few months! Really enjoyed this piece. Thank you!

Hey Tyler! Glad you enjoyed it! You are going to love it :) highly recommend hiking up Santa Ana Volcano!

Wow, I think this is your best work yet! Im sharing this vid to my family haha, keep up the great work.

Wow thanks DoJo Mast3r! I really appreciate it - hope your friends and family like it! Watching all the footage over again has made me want to go back to El Salvador soon, such good vibes down there 😄

[@dennispoolspaservicetdcigl746]

I like the thought of seperation of our money from government. Your explanation has convinced me, I'm in.

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks! We have a long way to go but El Salvador is really offering us a glimpse of what is possible in that new paradigm!

[@team.mayhem]

Wow what a masterpiece of a documentary on the evolution of Bitcoin in today's smaller economies where credit cards and bank accounts are rare! I can see why this took so many days/weeks of effort! Looking forward to your upcoming videos!

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks Ethan! I'm continually reminded how many people are left out of the financial system when I look outside our borders here in Canada. Hoping Bitcoin is the path to fixing this, and El Salvador gets to pave the way!

[@kathy8914]

Thanks for the great video! It was very uplifting.

[@getbasedtv]

Hey Kathy! So glad you enjoyed it! What has been going on in El Salvador makes me very hopeful for the future of money, civilization and people around the globe :D

[@NatePolmateer]

Being in Canada so many people don't see a use but there is so much scaleability with btc.

[@getbasedtv]

Yes! I had no idea Lightning had come so far and makes Bitcoin virtually free to use as a transactional currency. It opens up so many possibilities!

[@panamerican0]

Great coverage! Awesome to see smaller indie projects that don't get covered by big media. Looking forward to more content!

[@getbasedtv]

Hey! Glad you enjoyed it! More on the way next month :)

[@MrWhitenblue1]

Great Documentary, You should have a Second Episode!!! you have a lot of Materials to make the second Episode .

[@getbasedtv]

Hey Rico! There is a first part posted a little while ago on my channel called "What About The Money?"! And there will be another chapter soon - focused on how President Bukele came into power. Stay tuned - glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@edomar2r]

Nice documentary, is neutral and only states the facts. No Bias.

[@antoniocardoza9364]

Great job my friend! Can't wait to start learning how to invest in Bitcoin and then travel to El Salvador and use it to buy "pupusas" and everything else. Kudos to you brother!💪👍✌️😊...

[@getbasedtv]

I miss those Pupusas! Glad you enjoyed the video Antonio 😊!!

[@CanuckDividends]

Well done. That was awesome seeing you buy food at McDonald's and pay almost nothing in fees. Keep up the great work

[@getbasedtv]

Yeah I couldn't believe how quick and cheap it was! Mastercard and Visa, look out!

[@meriljayasinghe9292]

Bukele should always be the only, one and only President in El salvador, a Real Man who loves his country and people

[@saurabhchandras5034]

This is a very well done documentary

[@getbasedtv]

Thank you so much Saurabh - I really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@JoeNakamoto]

This makes me so bullish. The printing press vs the state comparison is excellent. Plus, I want lightning recycling in my city! I don’t have enough bitcoin; you reading this don’t have enough bitcoin. Orange pill your loved ones! Excellent job Julian!

any update video coming soon on the cabin development?

[@getbasedtv]

Probably one video this summer! I don't get to work on it much over the winter due to the rain, but we just set up hot water, and last fall we set up a second cabin as well!

@@getbasedtv hey do u have another YT acc with a whatsapp # account or it is some fake person/bot which msgs me wherever i comment u on ur channel?

[@alexgidge]

This has not been viewed enough times. There's some stats on current non-crypto money/bank accs, there's not too many wild predictions about the future, it's honest about the uptake but shows the use cases in action. Thank you

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks for the review Alex! I hoped it was a sincere portrayal of what is going on - I am super enthusiastic about Bitcoin and it's potential but it is still very early and a lot of education about the pros and cons of its implementation in El Salvador should be shared.

[@donttellya6897]

👌Push ✌️

[@austinbyrd4164]

If they could focus everything on making bitcoin accessible & educating the people on it, then things might start picking up.

[@getbasedtv]

The one area the government has been lacking in is spending money to create educational resources on Bitcoin usage and purpose... For me personally it was a long multi year process to fully understand and appreciate the benefit of Bitcoin. I imagine it will be the same down there for most people too!

[@rosamirianparadadenunez8143]

Muchos tenemos dinero invertido pero no compramos en Bitcoin porque lo que deseamos es sacarle rentabilidad.

[@austinbyrd4164]

They need to cut public spending, default on dollar denominated debt, deregulate, & implement bitcoin backed bonds. Rates will rise to compensate for risk. Given time loanable funds will properly allocate resources to demanded ventures & lead to a surplus. Monetary policy is just one issue. Bitcoin is fine. They just need to free up their markets.

[@Weilder.Lizama]

thanks for sharing this, like everything else in life in the beginning is a hassle and confusing nonetheless here we talking about currency money to survive. the very important thing here is the president vision and ideas to take a third world 🌎 country to the future. thanks 🙏 again.

[@getbasedtv]

Thanks for watching this! It was such a fun experience to travel to El Salvador and make this documentary. I've been inspired to connect more with my Latin American heritage as a result of this trip as well. There will be a 3rd part a few months from now about the rise of President Bukele, stay tuned!

[@ChefEarthenware]

I find it fascinating that a country wants to adopt a freedom-based currency while half the population are still wearing face masks.

[@getbasedtv]

To be fair - this was filmed about 4 days after Omicron broke out. Almost every country had mask mandates for indoor use + transportation. In hindsight it all seems ridiculous but El Salvador had much lighter COVID restrictions than even the USA or Canada at this time.

[@huibu8987]

14:40 imagine your last 2 years all conversations about covid had been exchanged with a conversation about bitcoin. id love this airdrop

[@getbasedtv]

I definitely tried and still try to insert Bitcoin into a conversation as often as COVID manages to come up... Maybe this year Bitcoin will win 😅. Agreed though! Less fear, more hope
