Proposing in China
My marriage proposal in China did not go as planned. Shout out to my father-in-law for doing the heavy lifting even though I’m sure he thought this was the weirdest custom on earth.

The Truth Behind Bitcoin in El Salvador - Lost In El Salvador
มุมมอง 11K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Lost In El Salvador In 2021 El Salvador became the first country in the world to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender when President Nayib Bukele made the surprising announcement at the Miami Bitcoin Conference. July of 2022 Michael Kaplan and Turner Sparks (that's me) flew to El Salvador to meet with government officials, Bitcoin influencers and stand-up comedians to see if people were actually using...

In July of 2022 my friend Michael Kaplan and I flew to El Salvador to film a TV pilot called “Lost In El Salvador”, based off of our podcast Lost In America. This is the trailer. Kap and I created the idea, hired the cast/ crew, self-financed the whole project, won a few awards at film festivals and on August 5, 2024 will be releasing it for free right here on my TH-cam channel. This is the tra...

Is this a real cueeency sounds like a scam lol
Ayyyy that’s actually flame
F the imf mafia
This video is goated
thank you I agree!
I was in El Zonte this August '24 and used Bitcoin pretty much everywhere. Even paid my hotel with It. It's still early in 🇸🇻 but you guys are even funny...🤣
Good to hear! We went in 2022 to film this.
I like how this guy timed his answers, That's one knowledgeable guy, very confident of his answers..😂😂 He's done the researched..
Y esos 400 millones están en una cartera Fría ??? Entienden ósea están Guardados????
Al Contrario A Ganado $400 millones
NO A Perdido 150 millones (( saben porque No 👎 Porque NO A Vendido ni Una Sola Moneda)))) expliquen eso No den mala información ok 👍
we explained that. Paper Loss. and it has certainly gone up a lot since this conversation was recorded.
¡ ¡ I LIKE YOU SO MUCH GABY ! ! Take it easy beautiful girl ! !😍😍😍😘😘😘
The problem is the system they have set up for bitcoin is always down that’s why it doesn’t work
The problem is that people take it as a joke to use bitcoin, many out of ignorance and others because they heard bad information. I put some dollars in and they are duplicated. In a bank it would never double in my favor. The problem is that we don't have much $$$$ to buy when the price goes down.
This is obviously a dig at Bukele and El Salvador. Leftist propaganda. I’ve been to many places where I was able to use it with no issues. The lady’s phone died. Haha no bit coin. Again, leftist propaganda.
She didn't have a phone how is that propaganda? We went down with no agenda, as exhibited by the fact that we didn't even record the moment we found out that the Pupuseria Max Kaiser took us to didn't even take Bitcoin!
Es simple, en El Salvador un ciudadano normal no usa bitcoin, somos un paraíso para los que quieran lavar dinero. 🙂
that's a great marketing campaign!
No Bitcoin country apparently... Argentina has more activity in USDT & Bitcoin exchanges than El Salvador. Despite that, El Salvador is doing the best it can.
Hit piece
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏
Buenos chistes también.
En la playa estubo bien chivo.
Chivó wallet si funciona, así le mando dinero a mi tía es fácil y no se paga la transacción
❤❤❤
nice documentary but god damn you guys are awful comedians
I live in Berlin, Usulutan, and 95% of my monthly spending is bitcoin, not cash. Also, don't use Chivo. it sucks as any govt wallet would. Use Blink or Phoenix lightning wallets.
gringo liars dont like to face the truth.thats why only their money is welcome but they are not.
You should have gotten Max Keiser on a comedy act. I think he’s funny.
😂😂😅hi Mr. TRUMP😂😂😅
🎉🎉🎉❤😅
Nice ComDoc😅🎉❤
Hahahahaha these guys nailed it, Salvadorans are getting dusted with all of this., bulele is a master marketer! Bitcoin is just another ponzi scam. In El Salvador the dogs have better healthcare, damn. Not many people dare to go there and see how things really are. We are in a quick info era, people don’t want to investigate, they just go with the flow. Those who speak against the government can get into trouble, remember this is a dictatorship dressed like a messiah…
When BTC goes from 60,000 to 200,00 in 18. months.....everyone is going to wish they actually had BTC
This comunist guy will never been agreed with our President, bitcoin never have been forces nobody to use it. anybody can used as they wish.I hate guy who make this kind of videos trying to find negativity thing in any country.what a moron.
33:58 It doesn’t matter if you’re woman you gotta be funny, stop making excuses for not being funny. Haven’t seen her comedy so I don’t if she’s funny or not, but they always that excuse is I’m a woman. 😂
At 21:06 okay something is not adding up... This Cafe Fulanos has Chivo but you still cant buy anything from there using a Bitcoin QR code?... plus her explanation as to why it wouldn't work didn't sound right
The world is constantly evolving. Fiat currency has had an amazing run for humanity but things slipped in 1971 when we were pulled off the gold standard. Now it's just paper. Currency is measured by your time/energy. And they keep debasing it with injecting new paper money and now your time/energy means less and will continue to mean less. I wouldn't consider Bitcoin a currency but an asset. For the first time in world history there's an asset with a fixed supply. Gold, silver, oil, stocks, housing, fiat currency, etc , they can always create more of and devalue it. But there will only be 21 mil BTC. And these citizens hold a piece of the pie. If some of the biggest asset management companies are now in the game, like Blackrock, we know it's game on. HOLD my friends. Do your own research. Bitcoin is monetary freedom that doesn't get held up at borders or be stolen from your hands.
One of the few comments about BTC that makes sense. People really have no idea how much BTC is going to appreciate as the asset becomes more coveted and the supply dwindles. It grows on average 100% a year....Save it for 10 years and you'll be amazed !
Unfortunately, El Salvador real estate is now priced like Miami real estate
Let me know if you are looking to buy in either location!
This guy gives u the wrong information..the bigcoin is not mandatory but is voluntary..that means if u want to use it is fine or if you don’t want to use it is also fine no problem..but the chicharrón guy is from fmln 😮that tells you everything..
exactly .he is a liar.un mentiroso.es propaganda pa mostrar el malo unicamente.
Yeah it seems as though he's only interviewing business owners who don't take Bitcoin as payment.
@@TheGoldeagle99 when i was in january 2021 it was like 30 percent accepting bitcoin.i will see how it is this end of the year when going again.but its not as the guy wanted us to believe.this was a propaganda video and i feel shame for the people in el salvador how he was showing his point of view.
Ignorance talking.
100%
Gabriela the socialist…😂 tonta. What are the chances you happen to interview actual guerillas communists …fmln is organization that robbed the nation and let the gangs grow to keep the population in fear. Nayib a capitalist saved the country.
Many peps in El Salvador are uneducated with the bit coin currency. Also, this has been a 3rd word country. I personally think it's going to take a very long time to make use of it. The country has done a lot of progress in 5 years but not enough. Let's keep hope alive. 🙏🏼
There is no use of Bitcoin in El Salvador, nobody uses it, dont believe the fake news
Awesome vid🤘
Thank you!
Ok I liked the fun and I love you guys. But to expect people to accept bitcoin for a coffe or for an icecream is too much, it’s like wanting to pay a coffee with a little bit of gold or silver. It takes too much time and effort to exchange it. It’s nicer and kinder to pay using dollars. Thank you, love you all.
Ahhh ok fair point. We honestly didn’t go down there with any expectations. The original intent was to get bitcoin right away from the ATM and then use it everywhere as 60 Minutes, Yahoo News and the government said we could. Then upon arrival it all went sideways pretty quickly and we had to chance the whole concept of the episode on the fly.
Omg q vergüenza q la muchacha que los esta guiando no sabe ni usar la chivo Wallet diablos q cosas no
Amigo thanks for what u doing for the comedy culture in my country
We had a great time! Would love to come back
I can tell this video is old because BTC is worth more now than when the government of El Salvador gave those $30 to their citizens. If you don't sell your BTC, you don't lose or win anything, I just like BTC for the nature of it.
yes this was filmed 2 years ago that's why the 30 dollars was worth 9.81 at the time.
GOOD VIDEO HOPE YOU ENJOYED EL SALVADOR YOU GUYS KOOL AS HELL 😂👏
Thank you King!
Creo que la criptomoneda Bitcoin es un sí a nuestras vidas.
Good to know. I want to go to El Salvador and use BTC
BITCOIN IT'S FREEDOM, IF YOU HAVE BITCOIN YOU ARE NOT SLAVE ANYMORE. DO WANT TO BE A SLAVE OF THE CORRUPT POLITICIANS??.
Great video! 😂😂
Thanks Iron Mande
I was in El Salvador in June of this year and I used Bitcoin pretty much everywhere I went in the country
i go end of the year after 2021.awesome people,best president and using bitcoin is just amazing.those guys are so awfulliars and i guess they got payed for it.
@@Blondi-yw1zyYeah I sort of wondered. My suspicion is that the bitcoin angle is way over played and mostly hype. But these days everyone has an agenda. So you’d have to go there yourself to be sure.
@@RootBeerGMT you only have to understand wich benefit the people gain from using it.its not about "us".
You are straight up lying… you must own bitcoin to state that…ponzi cronies
I went there too, but 95% was not accepting bitcoin…
