Don't remind me again today

From Las Vegas to the Sacred Valley of Peru, the story of a former Deloitte consultant changed my understanding of Bitcoin.



It was after meeting Valentino at a meeting that I realized: for many communities along the Amazon River, the concept of "savings" simply does not exist. There are no local vocabularies, no financial tools, only the struggle for survival every day.

Motiv Perú is changing all of this. They enable children and entrepreneurs to earn, learn, and create with sats – a grassroots circular economy. Bitcoin is no longer an investment asset, but a tool for survival: buying bread, getting a haircut, and even going to Machu Picchu.

The most impressive part is that this organization started with a $5,000 Bitcoin donation (during COVID) and is now implementing "Surfing and Inclusive Education" and nutrition programs in Peru, truly providing marginalized communities with financial autonomy.

The place forgotten by banks is where Bitcoin is igniting hope. The Crypto Surf Cup has started - the next chapter has just begun.
