Hey, I’m

I am the community builder of
in #ElSalvador & I also run
BitDriver, the first taxi business in the country that operates solely on the #BitcoinStandard.

I’m on a mission to change the world.

Here’s my story:

I used to work in the boring world of banks, “helping” people with loans and credit
cards🥴
But one day, I took a trip to El Zonte & I discovered #Bitcoin from a lady who sold us a
bag of ice.
We bought it out of curiosity, not knowing how this episode would change my life

During the pandemic, I saw a newspaper story about Bitcoin being called “digital
gold”.
I wanted to learn more, but it was hard to find information in Spanish.
I searched on Facebook but I couldn't find any helpful groups but scams.

In 2021, our president Nayib Bukele announced #Bitcoin as legal tender in #ElSalvador.
I was SHOCKED about it & started explaining to my family and friends what this meant.
Little did I know, my life was about to change. One day I lost my job and started driving for Uber.

But one of those trips changed everything. Four foreigners got in, and we heard news
about protests against #Bitcoin adoption.

One of the passengers was
John Dennehy, founder of
, and he
asked me if I could give him an interview.

That’s how I became the first student of
and received classes
directly from John
I quickly understood everything about #Bitcoin . This was just the beginning.

Then, I had an idea: I wanted to offer my taxi service and accept #Bitcoin.
It felt like magic once I began doing it!
my first announcement for AdoptingBTC2021

That’s how I became the first driver in #ElSalvador to accept #Bitcoin & named my company ‘Bitdriver’
From working in the traditional financial system to being able to provide transportation
services for the huge amount of people visiting #ElSalvador

Working on education at
has changed my life.
And just as I change, I want the lives of my people, of my country to change, and that
can only be achieved with education and patience.

We knew we had to #startsmall before we expanded, but now we’re ready to go to
the next level.

We’ve received donations and support from
Jack , Greg Foss, Bitcoin Beach, Blink Wallet , Bitfinex , Looking Glass and PayStand

And we are just getting started.

Onward!
