Bitcoiners - Live From Bitcoin Beach
Live From Bitcoin Beach! This channel is an opportunity to showcase the thoughts and views of Bitcoiners coming through El Zonte, El Salvador.
Also known as Bitcoin Beach, this location is ground zero of the Bitcoin and Orange Pill revolution sweeping the nation since President Nayib Bukele made Bitcoin legal tender.
We showcase the bustling Salvadoran Bitcoin community, thriving day-to-day using BTC as actual money.

Bitcoiners - Live From Bitcoin Beach
Bukele Didn’t Kill the Bitcoin Law. He Made It Smarter | Gabriel Kurman & Ivan Kaleja
Live from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador, in this episode, we’re joined by Gabriel Kurman (GAKU) and Ivan Kaleja of Bitcoin for Humanity, two of the earliest supporters of Bitcoin circular economies worldwide. We dive deep into how grassroots Bitcoin adoption is transforming communities around the world.
We talk about the origins of the La Bitcoineta Project, how Latin America became a hub for circular Bitcoin economies, and the creation of a brand-new Bitcoin book “Bitcoin Circular Economies: Stories of hope built on the sovereign money of the future”, which documents its real-world impact in places like Brazil, Costa Rica, Guatemala, South Africa, and beyond.
Whether you're passionate about Bitcoin adoption, financial inclusion, or you're just curious how people are actually using Bitcoin in real life, this is the episode for you.
Plus, hear how Bitcoin education is being rolled out in El Salvador’s public schools, how communities are becoming self-sustainable through Bitcoin, and why spending sats is more important than ever to keep these movements alive.
If you're dreaming about visiting a Bitcoin circular economy, building your own, or just want to hear the stories that prove Bitcoin is more than just a number on a screen, hit play now.
