That's fantastic. There are a ton of lightning network skeptics solely because it hasn't seen the same rate of adoption as Bitcoin. Time will tell. But layer 2's are the only reason micropayments such as that above can be implemented. They are necessary for the future of the network, especially in a sovereign nation. Love the videos.

@CheritoCafe That's the type of use of crypto that Satoshi had in mind. Excellent development!

@CheritoCafe Amazing to see. Is the implementation done via LN Bits? Am working through some related "split payment" ideas for merchant offers. @arcbtc.

@CheritoCafe How does it get to the farmers? And who are the farmers? I would like to know, because I am a coffee farmer!

@CheritoCafe I've been saying fast money is as important as hard money. Imagine investors get paid out profit shares in the same manner. Now imagine owning parts of 100 local businesses and constantly getting paid profits. Productivity & growth on hyperdrive.

WEโ€™VE BEEN LOOKING AT BITCOIN COMPLETELY WRONG. Every day, I hear the same two arguments. Normies say Bitcoin is "magic internet money backed by nothing," while their fiat currency dissolves. Meanwhile, some Maxis sit thousands of miles away wondering if El Salvador's adoption is just a top-down PR stunt. We sat down with Cherito Specialty BitCafรฉ Roasters ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ˜Žโ˜•๐Ÿ’Š๐ŸŠ to dismantle both narratives. Jorge fled El Salvador's civil war, built a tech career in Seattle, and returned to farm his family's coffee land through a decade of intense gang violence and crop disease. His story completely breaks Peter Schiffโ€™s favorite "argument" against Bitcoin. Specialty coffee requires a 14-month cycle of human sweat and ancestral farming. Jorge calls these raw beans "Analog Proof of Work", natural manifestation of time and energy. When traded peer-to-peer for sats, Bitcoin isn't backed by thin air; it acts as a digital mirror mapping value to that real-world physics. This is a true circular Bitcoin economy! Bypassing predatory 4.5% banking fees via Lightning, Jorge's node automatically routes those saved sats as instant royalties directly to his baristas and remote mountain workers. His story and what he is building is absolutely amazing. If that wasn't enough, he even turns discarded coffee cherry skins into "Bitcoin Libre", a capitalistic counter-punch and mockery to communism. This story will change how you see Bitcoin, El Salvador, and human ingenuity. Stop wasting time looking at charts. Come see how the Bitcoin blockchain literally meets the fertile soil of Bitcoin Country. Watch the full episode now ๐Ÿ‘‡
