Bitcoin Beach Brazil – Tools for local bitcoin adoption
Fernando Motolese
Technology is scarce and banking access is limited in the remote area of Jericoacoara, Brazil. Fernando is setting out to bring education and access to the “forgotton” kids. Hear about the journey and get a hands-on demo of the point of sale machines and BOLT cards that are enabling a school store to be built on bitcoin.
