Max Keizer and volcano bonds
Max Keizer is a BTC Evangelist who has written several books about the Bitcoin journey described as “relentless optimism in the age of Bitcoin”. It is interesting that the filmmaker, broadcaster and journalist received the citizenship of El Salvador and became one of the top stars of the Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte. Keizer and his wife, Stacy Herbert, started the Orange Pill Party, spreading the word about Bitcoin and the overall benefits of blockchain technology to society.
The cryptocurrency pair participated in Bitcoin Lightning educational events around El Salvador sponsored by Pro-Bitcoin President Nayib Bukele. Bitcoin lover Bukele has drawn up plans for a Golden Bitcoin City with a central volcano. Keizer was soon hooked on the idea, as El Salvador could become the world’s first Bitcoin-powered cryptocurrency hub. Finally, BTC-backed Volcano bonds will bring many investors to El Salvador and increase adoption.
“The antidote to censorship and extreme censorship has always been art and extreme art. Bitcoin is the most extreme art possible, immune to any censorship.”⁰⁰— Max Keiser#BTC $16,524 https://t.co/vMUrHVS2LW pic.twitter.com/ojb45VSu1P

El Salvador is still getting used to BTC
Indeed, Bitcoin Lightning technology allows the unbanked population of El Salvador to pay their bills without taking a long bus ride. At the same time, international tourism levels have risen due to Bitcoin Beach and the country’s positive stance on cryptocurrency. Mr. Bukele, who is not liked by the mass media, agrees with Max Keyser’s definition of the power of Bitcoin:
“Bitcoin is the most extreme art possible, immune to any censorship.” However, recent research shows that the Chivo app launched by Nayib Bukele’s government has not caught on with the public or businesses. Most users rushed to sign up for the mobile app to get a $30 bonus, equivalent to three business days for the average Salvadoran.
As the president continues his bold crackdown on gangs, ramps up Bitcoin maximalism and focuses on international tourism, Stacy Herbert describes El Salvador’s journey as “the biggest rebrand in history.”
Amazing theme in #Bitcoin + #Bukele = The biggest rebrand in history cost nothing! Compare that to the more than $550 million the previous government spent marketing CAFTA…Or the tens of billions Qatar spent on the World Cup https://t.co/Rtr56rXwz6

On the flipside
- Nayib Bukele’s cryptocurrency is still in the red. In addition, the president BTC purchases fell by 62.02%, leaving $41 million from the initial $108 million.
- The bitcoin-loving president also aims to buy one BTC per day starting November 18, 2022 using DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) tactics.
