Here's another couple who seem to have gotten discouraged by the slow pace of Bitcoin adoption in El Salvador. They mentioned they were going to stop creating content because they were running out of things to talk about. However, their video didn't really explain why, and they rambled quite a bit.
My guess is that many Bitcoiners who moved to El Salvador eventually realized that progress is slower than expected. The much-anticipated Bitcoin City isn’t going to be built anytime soon, and as a result, some of them left. This has likely left the remaining Bitcoiners with little new content to share on their channels.
I suspect they were expecting Bitcoin City to be built quickly, along with a rapid explosion of wealth and Bitcoin-related excitement.
The lesson here is clear: don't quit your job and relocate to a country based on promises of a Bitcoin-driven explosion of wealth, especially if you're relying on it for financial stability.
Unless, of course, you have no major financial worries and plenty of time to spare. In that case, sure, move there and help push Bitcoin forward!

Awesome to see 🤩
Freedom is not free.
Responsibility and action are key ingredients.
In El Salvador 🇸🇻 there is an awesome taxi 🚕 service called BitDriver @Napoleon Osorio
We have booked a number of rides and enjoyed a reliable comfortable service.

Based on experience of speaking to people who are new. Yes. It’s not always clear to a lot of people. Might seem to silly to you and me. But we have experience on the magic internet money. For many new less tech savvy. It really does seem like magic. And we find ourselves explaining a lot of things we might take for granted as logical. And they really are not clear on the risk model. No silly questions or assumptions that everyone understands it. We meet people where they are. And patiently walk them through it.
Can you please explain what does happen.
As I think it’s important for people to be aware they are actually giving up custody. I don’t think that is very clear to the uninitiated.
Hey. Would be happy to share what I know and talk about options that would fit your needs.
Have fun staying permissionless
One of the best things about Bitcoin Lifestyle is the community of communities.

I suffer from wanting to try many wallets.
So many options with different benefits and features. Useful to know options for when we talk to people.
This little fledgling is a stranded guest in our garden at the moment.
Mom and Dad are busy feeding it which is great to see. They are there all day in the trees above ensuring it’s safety.
I’m not sure it’s a simple means of exchange.
The part I think many people are missing. They think money is money. It’s not. There is a spectrum or a quality of money. Healthy and Junk money. Just like Health and Junk food.
Use healthy money and build healthy money habits. And become financially fit.
Exchange junk. Get junk. Become junk.
Having multiple Lightning ⚡ Wallets on hand is useful. Turns out not all wallets have great liquidity to all services. But many wallets have great liquidity to each other.
Just a thought from experience when getting things paid.
Small and medium family business are a sign of a healthy community.
Anyone focusing on buying from them?
Sharing the healthy relationship of their services along with a healthy money?
I'm thinking of a small manual to hand out. Any thoughts on what should be in it?
