Graham Elwood is a comedian, filmmaker, and podcaster. He has just spent time on the ground in El Salvador exploring the country’s Bitcoin adoption. He is producing a new documentary called Bitcoin Saves El Salvador.
Why you should listen
Graham first learned about Bitcoin when Max Kaiser appeared on his show Political Vigilante.
Graham discusses his experience in El Salvador, particularly in Bitcoin Beach, where he witnessed the adoption of Bitcoin and its positive impact on the local community. NGOs like My Premier Bitcoin and Hope House are educating locals about using Bitcoin in a circular economy and providing language education. Graham was impressed with being able to use Bitcoin for everyday transactions like renting a surfboard and noted the lack of crime compared to other Latin American countries. He highlights how legalizing Bitcoin has helped redirect extortion money back into the economy, creating hope for a brighter future in El Salvador. The adoption of Bitcoin varies across towns and regions, but there is overall optimism among those he spoke with regarding President Bukele’s actions against criminals and corruption and the adoption of Bitcoin.
Graham is raising funds for his documentary project and hopes that the Bitcoin community will support it. He sees potential in combining Bitcoin with film production ensure fair compensation for content creators.
