The el salvador at the foot of the contract. Go up. Ok, now this is the future site of the coin city. Heres how it will look. Since the countries president s, the steps there. Well its not clean. Now im taking version for just arriving. But a little way down it uh mattress. Uh, got a little micro kitchen just to uh, just the one man will. Citadel hut, you know, front door and its pretty safe around here. I havent seen a bad guy since, since ive been here. And so i, in oregon, sleep out on the beach or youre just, you know, theres, theres no trouble or worries washer. The 30 i, my names corbin. Keegan, elder quintero. The 1st residents of the coin city. According to your email, salvador is the beacon of light and hope for the coin fix is not just the money, but everything built on the money. The here in guatemala lake dotted line is dying and bit queen mining is the solution. All of that material is waste, that can be turned into energy that can be turned into decline the positive outcomes almost. And no one knew el salvador before. Lots of us are only here because of good pointing because its an opportunity for a Global Economic collaboration. And how that works, i dont think also, but its a business for the lead. I think its the course communities who have the lease to gain from an Economic System like this, but i certainly point them here. So when you talk about the inside of the, it is related to the point where its going to be, lets go to completely a couple pieces, a big problem in guatemala. If we dont collect the oil, people will just chuck it somewhere which is sent to the environment. The may. Im being that because when it rains, it goes right into the lake. By the next. I mean they, i, i live with that. Now we have a solution for that, and well, its incredible. It was in the unit in the backyard next to a car repair shop is a boom, who made bitcoin machine and he has a key hi wants to use it to mind digital goals. First, these filters food residues down to the Old Cooking Oil and then its ready to fuel the own diesel machine. The electricity generated power, small computers, which perform cryptographic operations for the Global Bitcoin block chain. In return, they receive small sums of bit coins at least one mines about 3. 00 a day, but on the whole, they dont run out. Weve been dealing with you for 3. 00 plus about 1. 00 a day on this one. Im happy i can pay for my coffee inbetween where youre living right next to cub. Boom is prime on your site. Most people, im a musician, a very sacrament. When trump bass, drums, Seaboard Marine the violin, he doesnt understand why it has to be so noisy here. I keep telling them to get a muffler, then be quieter. Americana. Ill probably be going. Creating bit coins from waste was an idea that areas are key high going from patrick meld. Uh well this is what i call the hidden air. All covered in vines and in foliage. And if you look at whats going on here, weve got the necessary ingredients to break down organic waste and create methane. And for our purposes, we would capture this methane and flare it create energy and mine big point. The organic waste ponds as being inactive. But yes, connecting it to the grid is too expensive, so wasteful to adjust the flow has passed, it could be coins from the same mining. Finally get it up and running. This is low hanging fruit for us to help the community. And again, its just another demonstration that big point is the only thing that could come in here and fix this problem. The next level would be the solid waste facility. And then we have created a, a real Virtuous Cycle of taking waste and creating bitcoin and improving the economy and proving that community and protecting the environment. Patrick mount came here from the us as a christian missionary. Now he leads the logo, bitcoin project with the same zeal. I have a lot for this community.

Patrick told us that the price was actually a high, but if i regularly invest some of the process, ill have more life. Okay. Can 7 moseley invest these or not . Because at some point, maybe not now, but even a year or 2. The price could explode or sales for the explicit yeah, this looks like a great to orange pill. Someone is due on both them to big point. Here we go. Is that how are you waiting . This is amy and im going to say yes, i dont know. Im eli is from the like a big calling project that is dealing with the cooling makes practical sense for your business list. Why . Because you get a lot of tourists from the us and the rest of the world goes, they pay with visa or mastercard, and those Companies Get a 5 to 8 percent commission. Seeing its different with between the customers can send you money directly without commission. The blue stay the middle in the night, let me show the motorcycle rental company is skeptical in 2021 l sounds. It all became the 1st country to accept big coins as legal tender jeff got us is a bit coined at from germany. These parts of a german delegation touring through bitcoin country. Theres a big conference coming out. Thats a special thing about big coins. Yeah. Theres no headquarters in state.

You know, sort of living in 2022 after a spike in homicides both are, it is declared a state of emergency in el salvador victo opinion takes us to posit limited in the hall to the capitals and salvador to see some of the effects. The bi mahoney, you know, were going to kind of black market. The goods, the sale here are often obtained at least at least not a heavy leasing that way, but thats a form of trade that many people here depend on to get their living. And yes, if i more to him, so i guess well see. So thats a black market right in a city center. Until recently, it was a very dangerous place to visit. El salvador is one of the highest rates of Gang Violence in the wells. Since declaring a state of emergency, the government has imprisoned over 66000 ledger gang members without valid trials. But sometimes there was always conflict here on the games used to clash with each other. But thats pretty much over now. When we all know, so in a way the government is doing a good job because theyre trying to do something good for the people of a window, but a but equivalent. But lots of people are having a hard time because theyre innocent. Relatives are in prison when the symptom of book is empty. Why . Those are funny and says, you know, send dimensions in the wall on games. Most security comes at the cost of basic human rights. The big calling revolution is on how the state speed calling quality chiva is being launch leah band. Only a few locals use it and then was in the cooling. Yes, we have the it was doing pretty well in the beginning, but less so lightly. I dont know why the, some of them as little sign a bit calling you for you in the center of san salvador.

The big coins is a raw material. Says the government, the but as a community, we dont really know whats going on a quite a bit. But of course events, and were the ones who could end up suffering negative consequences in just a little gotta, if there are profits and how will they be distributed among the citizens in the end . Thats the most important thing. And this will go mostly what i threw it on the well, again, im looking for a bunch of, you know, there are room is of money coming in. That will be very welcome in this impoverished region, the, the big calling base comp inside sales at all. And were leaving now, so think about the big coin delegation. Hes also heading to banning on an exclusive visit to the goes to him all power plants. If you dont see a Geothermal Power plant like this every day, all those types and the steam power coming out of the mountain and also getting to see how is use directly from mining. Theres at least one mine in there. Maybe theyve even expanded the mining operators in the bill of the mining parts on pacific subjects. Visitors are rarely allowed inside the power plants and Geothermal Energy is an important source of power for the country. Heat from the nearby volcanoes, tens ground water into steam, which drives turbines to generate green electricity. President. Now your book kayla has promised that this kind of green energy will supply bitcoin city. This would make green Bitcoin Mining possible.

It will be the dry season and ive had the thank goodness we havent had any terrible diseases of the items i had. The children sometimes get diarrhea from the water. But i mean, hold on, lets see. Oh, where, what to improve the situation wed need support from a governmental or non Governmental Institution at the moment. I dont know what 11009 for you at, especially when the tank gets empty on the landline. Thank you. It. The net one that you would like to have a proper Water Pipeline so that the families wouldnt always have supplies that, that have been if you see on the left a minute in the middle of this last forest. Water isnt luxury. Families live here with minimal infrastructure. No sewage systems, no paved roads rationing is common. The why is there a lot . You think its a just on peoples feeling, the water for the rest. You want the only open the tap when we hand out the water rations. If the, if someone would lie a 2nd for someone else who are not in our, a full pockets. So going to pass timely day in drawing months even less. Some of the energy generated at the g as the old power plant goes towards a bitcoin mine on site. The delegation wants to know how many big coins are being mind with the computers here. But they only get a quick look inside a no answers. The projected have nothing has changed compared to last year. Well try to analyze it a bit more later from the photos and videos.

When, if i know that i dont want to be selfish about that, but we have a real emergency here with drinking. Why . The number one number ahead and check it out. I wonder if its a lot what profoundly or without the Infrastructure Investment douglas sanchezs grand. Some will also grow up without running water. Victo opinion, doubts that big coin will help with that. What are you at the ending but its what needs to maybe it will help the be investors and the government itself. Everyone who believes in and promotes these between religion and miss beverly, but i dont think it will help communities like these. At least i dont see a plan that also takes to pull people into account and see what i want to say. I know somebody okay out of it really gets to me it hurts to see children in these conditions, especially because i have a daughter bad by identifying with the one thing.
