All fiats are going to hyperinflate, in countries where this happens first they’ll have a head start in progressing to the other side.
Of course you have to factor in overall wealth the country as well.
Melvin, noob question - Can Nostr just adopt DHTs for its discovery layer?
RFK heading the FDA and this. So much joy in the world today.

A lot of the panaderías in Cordoba have swarms of bees and no one seems to care 🐝

Argentina things. First week at the main coworking spot in Cordoba. Almost 10am on a Monday and there’s only one other person here
It’s fun the first few times, ngl
Went to a cueva to trade $2000 usd for pesos and came back with this stash

Talked to him again tonight. He asked me what I get from Bitcoin, he assumed the motive was gainz but he could sense a bit more. I told him it was NGU at first but then slowly I realized I could help fix the world. I said that about three different ways over the course of our chat and at the end he might have finally believed me.
Or else he’s just trying to dig to find out if I have a lot of Bitcoin or not so he can wrench attack me 😂
Got 2kg of “carne canino” from the local butcher for 800 pesos Argentinos. Or 0.30 usd per kg! “Carne canino” means meat for dogs - all the left over pieces. Lots of meat, fat and cartilage though, not just bones.
So that was two weeks ago. Today I went to a different butcher and the guy couldn’t find the price code so he just gave 2 kg to me.
My last dog died of cancer because although I bought “quality” kibble, I didn’t realize all of that is cancer causing garbage. This second pup has been on a mostly meat diet the last few years, and Argentina makes that so much easier.
Talked to the security guard of the building I just moved into for an hour. Smart guy, studying to be a lawyer, and he’s already studied enough to have solid questions. Way better questions than when I first started.
In El Salvador I related mostly with Bitcoiners because it was easy. In Argentina it’s much harder, a country of newbs mostly.
Fun either way as long as I can talk about Bitcoin 😁
When he slices that ice.

The swift movement of the bottle kills me 😂
Worst thing about Argentina so far is that all imported products are 50-100% higher than elsewhere. Due to import tariffs. Looked for a full suspension mtn bike today and got quoted $7000 for solid but not incredible new mode.
The website I was checking the dollar blue rate on wasn’t updating on my phone browser the past week and I’ve been trading at 1000 to 1. I had no idea. What a sucker.
Will save in the suitcase for the next trip to El Salvador
Bought a car in Argentina today. They meticulously evaluated all the $100 bills I had. This one was rejected because of the writing. Another because of a stain. Not sure how much I can get for them.
What’s going on with money here is fascinating. Everyone’s a money trader. I traded a few thousand USDt for usd bills for only 0.25% today, but realized I needed pesos so asked the Chinese guy at the corner store if he wanted dollars for pesos and then I traded with him.
I’be been trading dollars for pesos with the owner of the gym I go to the last couple of weeks. He even helped me make a digital transfer to the car dealership for the deposit.
Money is on everyone’s minds here. Just not yet Bitcoin…
Just landed in Buenos Aires. Enjoying creature comforts for the moment but soon time to dig in and help get this country on a. Bitcoin Standard.
8am in Berlín, El Salvador and I’ve already made two Lightning payments.
1st was 4,575 sats for breakfast at Marlen’s.
2nd was 19,700 sats at Family Market for some patas de pollo for our dog.
I make about 2-4 LN payments a day here. It’s normalized. 
Lots of listens in Central America for the size of the population!
Darvin, sabes donde podría conseguir 50 Bolt cards en El Salvador?
This will be the official flag of my free private city
Just don't keep them in Coinbase!
