The small country of Lebanon is hitting the world headlines for all the wrong reasons. After decades of civil war, a corrupt elite of politicians and central bankers plundered the country, plunging it into hyperinflation and collapse.
I talk to Sooly, a Bitcoiner from Lebanon who I met on Twitter. He gives us the inside scoop on what’s going on in his country and how young people are turning to Bitcoin.
