Thanks for watching❣
Our friends from Cuba will be watching this video.
Let us know what you thought about the video in the comments!
More Bitcoin content please! I had no idea about lightning network. It's so cool.
hey what app/wallets are they using?
Cuba is fucked because of capitalist embargoes suffocating the country not communism
I always said from the start of finding Bitcoin that Cuba is the perfect place for Bitcoin to be what sets them free. I've been talking to my family and friends in Cuba since 2015 about Bitcoin, some have adopted it, some just ignore it.
Slowly but surely-maybe share this video with them?
Good for you! Keep going. It will take all of us preaching Bitcoin to pull this off. The fiat black magic spell has everyone hypnotized.
How do you get freedom in communism.? Imaginary digits?
@@towncenter7602 So, what fake fiat are you using for commerce now? What toilet paper are the people of Cuba using now? Fiat monetary policy is to print ad infinum, give it to their buddies to buy all real assets, and give the general populace inflation. Bitcoin monetary policy is static. It never changes. Fixed supply, halving every 4 years, trustless, permissionless. Your statement shows your ignorance of how Cuba got this way in the first place. 🤡
Loved all of this. Incredible job, Joe - never stop what you're doing!
I wanted to cry the whole way through... both happy and sad and humbling. ❤
The same thing happened in Romania in the 80s-90s, the devaluing of the LEU. There was no BTC like this at that time. Having this now it's a lifeboat.
These people are very creative in their exchanges. Props to the Cuban people.
Great work! Loved to see this side of Cuba.
Bitcoin is freedom
It certainly is 🧡
Thank you Joe and Paco for your work, we were blessed for being able to receive you in Cuba and you have friends already for the next time you come! Such great people and filled with love and kindness.
Aww, thank you 🧡
One Love!
Always forward, never ever backward!!

🙏🏿🙏🙏🏼
I am so encouraged when I watch videos like this - well done Joe and Paco. There are lots of reasons for BTC but this has to be what was right at the heart of Satoshi when he (they) invented the concept. Lifting the world's poor and oppressed out of poverty and into the hope of progress, be that health, education and freedom of all sorts.
Well said
Great people and very interesting how Bitcoin is used in Cuba.
Glad you liked it!
Lovely documentary and enjoyed watching. Thank you for sharing!
What an amazing documentary. I wish everyone could see it.
wow - thanks!
@@JoeNakamoto@
Great documentary. Thanks. Im cuban and eager to learn and understand more of how this happen in Cuba
Brilliant video Joe. This is what's missing about Bitcoin adaption. These are the people who needs BTC the most, not western guys. Compared to the western mainstream, they do discovery BTC now and won't be late at the party. They really deserve that. Keep going Joe!!
God Job guys! Cuba is great and tourism over there with Bitcoin makes it even better!
Exactly-one of many ways they can harness Bitcoin 🧡
Excellent video Joe. Well done. Everyone should watch this. 🙏
The sad truth is the governments of every nation are getting bigger and bigger every day, controlling more and more aspects of private citizens' daily lives. Many 'western' countries are closer to Cuba than their native populations want to admit. Inflation (coupled with stagnated growth and wages) is present almost everywhere.
Interesting point dude
THIS REPORT MAKES ME cry of joy!!!! i'm so proud of cubans!!! Bitcoin is peace.. Bitcoin is LIFE
That's awesome dude-Bitcoin is peace 🧡
Bitcoin is peace but what u all forget is the money you earn with btc is the money that someone lost with bitcoin. Is that peace?
This was beautiful. Great job guys ❤. Cuban people are awesome!
That was great. The revolution continues with Bitcoin!
Actually made me cry.
Interesantísimo video para toda la comunidad hispanohablante.., y el público en general!!!!
Fantástico documento de cultura general!!!!🙂👍👍👍
Vamos Satoshi!!!!✊✊✊✊✊✊✊
Amazing video!
Amazing content.
Incredible job--great video! Love the Cuban people!
Fantastic insight 🫶 well made documentary.
Amazing! the whole of the global south needs to see this.
beautiful vid in so many ways -- slightly more effective than any rant by Saylor, Foss, Booth, Breedlove, Gladstein, Pysh, Alden, Lewis, Hayes and even Odell.
Cuba deserves every bit of positive it’s not there fault let’s pray 4 them 🙏 they r very good at finding solutions and mastering the way they solve them. I’m proud to say I’m part 😢Cuban . 🎉😊
Brilliant work, as always Joe!
Thank you ser! 🧡
I enjoyed this video. So important! Thanks 🙏
This should see every privileged one who says Bitcoin has no use cases or cannot be used as money. It's just working and it is so much hope for the future thank you to all adopters and supporters🧡
Excellent documentary. Well done 🫡
This is the happiest video I've ever seen!❤❤❤❤❤❤ Big Orange future indeed!

How awesome was that! Go Bitcoin Cuba!
This is what concerns me about BTC and the internet. Corrupt Governments can always shut you down!!
Ripple (XRP) can work offline
@@_Auroswim._.Ocean_Swimminghow? I would like to know..
I really like that Paco dude, he seems so much fun and really genuine.
Awesome, I hope Australia catches up soon. Thanks for sharing.😀
WOW! I absolutely loved this documentary
I love your shirts! Where do you get them??
The Cuba Bitcoin guys should really sell them -I'll ask them and report back!
The most educated people in Cuba often find their way into tourism. Even just for part time. I went there in 2001 and engineers and doctors were very often tour guides.
Great job Joe, leading from the front. Inspiring stories.
No idea why this came up in my feed but it was good enough to make me subscribe immediately. Great video. I’m going to see what else I missed and binge.
enjoy! The ones similar to this are the 'documentaries' section :D
This Is Phenomenal!!
Awesome, enjoyed every minute! Cheers
Cointelegraph is the new Vice News

Love to see more
Starlink for Cuba!
Awesome work!……I want Cuban friends.

Great video. Many thanks bud.
thank you for making and sharing such an insparing video.
No lies detected here... this is the way forward ⏩
Awesome vid guys, congrats to CUBA 🇦🇺👍
Liked and subbed 👍
Incredible!! 8D
Excellent job, @@Icloud__boss1-I'm delighted you're out there fighting these jerks. We must
do everything possible to protect the elderly and the general public from these vile con artists! You deserve it!! Big up, brother, you deserve the Nobel Peace Prize for keeping us safe.
When you go to Cuba, you realize how smart, educated and well aware of the world are they, we need to offer them respect because of their struggles against the big boys of shit guns coins of the world
rookie question: which wallets were there in the scene ?
(or to ask precisely, which wallets do you prefer to use for SAT payments ? any suggestions ?
Decred is the most secure money💵 around. luv it
This was awesome.
truly exceptional ❤
Fantástico.
Very nice guys!
Loved this video Joe and Paco :-)
Thanks Ben! Paco is the man - @pacodelaindia
Beautiful to see! 💯🔥
Great video 😁
One of your very best, Joe! Great F work!
Thanks mate!
Pure signal. Joe is the man.
Too kind :D
Excellent documentary. You should get an award for this.
Getting the Cuban bitcoiners’ work out there is my reward 😃
Nice
i love it.
Wow... luv it
top vid
Very inspiring to see the transformational power of crypto. Latin America can really be lifted too I believe
Forget crypto, this is just about Bitcoin.
Let's do this
The transactions of satoshi’s done in this video went through instantaneously and looked like was done on the lightning network due to the lightening bolt symbol shown above the wallet screen used to make their transaction which I wasn’t aware was already available in places like Cuba. Real interesting.
yeah that's correct, well observed!
Thank you for the nice reporting. It would be awesome to continue journey with Argentina, Venezuela then fly across the Atlantic to see adoption in Turkey then move to Lebanon.
Yessir!
Cape Verde and Peru first :)
(That's what I'm currently working on)
number go up, freedom go up
You bet
Pretty cool video, if you could add Spanish subtitles or dubs then alot of Cuban Americans that only speak Spanish could enjoy the video too. Also why does your 33 year old Cuban friend have an Indian English accent? Lol
Thanks! Spanish subtitles are available, I wrote them myself!
My 33 year old Cuban friend is in fact.... from India! 😂
What wallets do you guys use? On your phone. Cheers from Romania!
VEry Amazing, no news from media on this in France.
Je parle français si vous voulez que je fasse partager le message !
How about banks in UK? Do they block/close accounts doing crypto activity?
huge mark up on sats in Cuba. 20 pesos = 389 sats? when $1 in US can get you ~3,670 sats 👀
The conversion rate seemed to be 200pesos for $1 at the time of recording?
Where is the markup? Depending on where you buy them?
What lightning wallet used in cuba?
Phoenix Wallet, Wallet of Satoshi, Blink Bitcoin Wallet :)
Cuba need profound changes 👊🏻🇨🇦
