From Scott Melker - "This episode is likely the most important and unbelievable that I will ever record. I had the honor and fortune to interview Gabriel Jiménez, the mind behind the Venezuelan Petro. Gabriel has always been an active member of the opposition and spent his life protesting the Chavez and Maduro regimes - so how did he end up on stage with Maduro presenting the Petro as it's architect!? I have the entire story and more, including why Bitcoin is essential to every day life in Venezuela. His story was made public recently after 2 years of research by the New York Times. He is still an "enemy of the state" in Venezuela, so he is just feeling remotely safe in the United States and can start sharing his story. This is the only podcast that he has been on. Buckle up." --- ROUNDLYX RoundlyX allows you to dollar-cost-average into crypto with our spare change "Roundup" investing tool, manage multiple crypto exchange accounts in one dashboard and access curated digital asset content and services.

Welcome to the 1 Bitcoin Show! The big story of the day is Bcash and its infrastructure funding plan that appears to be very much centralized. Will it work? Is the 12.5% tax really temporary? The Petro is trading at half the price the government says it is worth. What does that really mean? Kim DotCom, some beyond BTC thoughts, Trezor, and more! EDIT- I subtracted 50 months instead of 46 months when talking about December 2020 and October 2016. Recorded in El Paso, TX.

Mauricio and Javier are real Venezuelans that want the world to know what is going on in their homeland. The Venezuelan Petro exists although Maduro and his crew don't care about crypto as a technology. They just want another control/confusion tool! This will backfire on a certain level because a few citizens will find their way into Bitcoin because of the Petro. The regime is unfortunately "getting away with it" for now and the Petro is worth more than a Bolivar. We also talk about Defi, the situations in Argentina/Chile/Bolivia, Ledn, Dash, Altcoins, and much more! You are getting the full show before the Youtube viewers! Produced in Adelaide, Australia!
