ICE BATH IN OUR NEW HOME IN EL SALVADOR
Having moved into our new home in El Salvador, we invited some friends over for an ICE BATH housewarming! What better way to welcome our friends than with a cold plunge? Watch as we set up the bathtub, fill it with ice, and jump into the freezing cold water together!

DESCRIPTION
In this video, we share an ice bath as a special housewarming with our neighbors and friends. My family, including me, my wife, our toddler son, as well as our 2 dogs, left Europe at the beginning of 2022 to find a better life.
Before June 2021, I could not point out El Salvador on a map, nor had I ever heard of Nayib Bukele, the country’s current president. So what happened to make me decide to give up almost everything in my life and go to a country I’d never heard about?
Well, at the end of the Bitcoin 2021 conference in Miami, Jack Mallers, founder and CEO of the Bitcoin payment company Strike, came onto the stage to make a special announcement. Mallers told the audience how spent a few months in El Salvador to roll out his product, helping Salvadorans keep more of their hard-earned money. He then uncovered that he’d been asked by Nayib Bukele, the El Salvadoran president, to advise on a law to make Bitcoin legal tender in El Salvador.
The government has launched Chivo Wallet, a Bitcoin wallet that works in conjunction with the Chivo ATMs scattered around the country. Salvadorans can now exchange Bitcoin for dollars and back. Salvadorans working abroad can also send remittance payments back home instantly and almost for free.
Bukele has announced Bitcoin City, a project to build a city in a special economic zone in the south of El Salvador. To attract foreign investments, the only tax people living in Bitcoin City will pay is a value added tax at 10%. The city is planned to be powered by geothermal energy from a nearby volcano.
Second, the country is going to offer Bitcoin Bonds, a true financial revolution in the way countries can potentially finance their development. The Bitcoin bonds are designed and launched together with Bitfinex and Blockstream, two major companies in the Bitcoin space.

1 Year Bitcoin in El Salvador: TOTAL FAIL?
มุมมอง 10K2 ปีที่แล้ว
One year after the adoption of Bitcoin as official currency in El Salvador, I go out in the streets of Puerto de la Libertad to find out if the Bitcoin project is a success or a total failure. By talking to local Salvadorans on the streets of El Salvador, I discover whether they know what Bitcoin is, if they have used it, and what it means to them and their country. The outcome may surprise you...
we could not hike San Salvador's volcano

Prepared to hike a circle around the crater of the volcano, we arrived too late in the day to do so, as the crater trail wasn't easily accessible without a guide. We will definitely come back another time earlier in the day, with a guide and with better weather to enjoy this beautiful place! On this TH-ca...

    This video sounds more of a anti-vaccine sentiment, the world is quote "evil" out there, etc..... Had it more focused on the opportunity that el salvador bringa to an investor irrespective of bitcoin or not, would actually be different and shown how the nation reallg changed.... That would have been more better..... For the record..... El Salvador did have a lockdown...... And had rules during such time (freedom and responsibility come in hand)..... However the government is recognised to address its age old social and infrastructure problems, that's what is impressive..... The pandemic and the insecurity of that nation would not have been resolved had it been under the old x2 political parties ..... That would have been guaranteed.... Little known facts for yall. And again el salvador did have a lockdown, and the president did do same measures to mitigate the risk.

    I lived in El Salvador 30 years I have never found a crocodile 🤣🐊 or a big spider neither a coyote or those kind of snakes but I used to live in the capital. I had warm showers at home you just install a system 🤷🏽‍♀️. Traffic agree 😅❤ weather is hotter is you live near to beach but if you live in chalatenango is like fall weather between 65 or 70 nice 😊. Guns are allow for police or security guards only it’s not easy to get one like usa.

    We are far more heavy in bitcoin than gold. That being said, I’m realistic enough to admit that bitcoin has basically failed since Nov.2021. It hit 69k and then fell off a cliff. It did NOT hit a new ATH in 2024, because the 69k of Nov. 2021 is now 81k in real terms. Bitcoin didn’t get close to 81k this year. I completely agree that bitcoin has a lot of potential, but I think we need to accept the fact that it’s years away from amounting to much. The whole thing is based on hype, which is fine. We buy a lot of things hoping they appreciate. But what if bitcoin doesn’t double this cycle? Imagine the sell off-it will be beyond brutal. Not to mention, miners are losing money. How long can that go on? There entire model only works if bitcoin stooge pumps. If that stumbles, the miners are done-then what happens? The only way Bitcoin really works for most of us is, you buy only when sentiment is dead red 🛑 and you hold for 4 plus years. Anything less, you could lose your ass-both cheeks. And how many of us can safely say we won’t need the money before 4 years. The vast majority of stock and real estate investors are never going to flock to anything that can literally drop 25-45% in a matter of days. Good luck, but you can kiss 100k for 2024 good bye for sure. If it does, it will be fleeting and drop right back down.

    This is what we need. Not the loud drunks. Good families with principles. A thousand times i prefer the stoners and hippies i met in los angeles and other parts of the states like in austin texas and portland Oregon than this drunk frat boys that ruin everything and make beer and food expensive. Come the surfers, the hippies, the families, the teachers, the explorers and adventures, the globe treckers. Those whose soul cries for something different. Those who seek a new reality and a new frontier. Welcome the artists, the musicians who play real instruments, the writers and women in bikinis. We dont want your social losers with violence and evil in their hearts. We dont want your gay politics. We want true friends and people who cry when they leave El Salvador because they soul hurts to leave paradise.

    "Crime in El Salvador has been historically extremely high due to the presence of various gangs. As of 2011, there were an estimated 25000 gang members at large in El Salvador; with another 43500 in prison. The best-known gangs, called maras in colloquial Salvadoran Spanish, are Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) and their rivals 18th Street; maras are hunted by death squads, including Sombra Negra. Newer rivals include the rising mara, The Rebels 13. El Salvador is one of the three countries of the Northern Triangle of Central America, along with neighboring Guatemala and Honduras, which are all afflicted with high levels of violence. US State Dept Travel Advisory The US State Department currently recommends US citizens Reconsider Travel to El Salvador due to crime."
