On this extra special episode, the boys are joined by John Dennehy of Mi Primer Bitcoin, a nonprofit dedicated to Bitcoin and blockchain education in El Salvador. They discuss the successes and challenges of El Salvador's Bitcoin rollout, the development of a Bitcoin curriculum, and Mi Primer Bitcoin's rapidly expanding class offerings, which have reached tens of thousands of students across the country. All this plus Bitcoin's effect on the local economy, the creation of blockchain jobs, and, of course, how you can help support the mission. Don't miss it. Timestamps
