JAN3’s website is now live!
We’re happy to share that the site is available in several languages, thanks to our all-star team and the contributions of many bitcoiners from across the globe. 🌍
Countries worldwide need
#Bitcoin
, and we’re ready to orange pill them all. 🍊💊💪
Countries have three main paths to
#Bitcoin
adoption, explains
@Excellion
at Mexico's Congress. 🇲🇽
1- Add Bitcoin to the nation's treasury.
2- Bitcoin bonds and mining.
3- Enact laws allowing for Bitcoin to be used as currency like
@IndiraKempis
intends to do.
This is Javier Milei, the Argentine 🇦🇷 presidential candidate who wants to put an end to central banking and thinks
#Bitcoin
can bring back private money.
So, what has led to
@JMilei
tearing through Argentina’s political establishment? 🧵
"I don't believe we will be trading
#Bitcoin
against the US-dollar & other fiat currencies for that much longer, just because it makes zero sense. You are trading Bitcoin against something that can be printed out of thin air. It’s like trading Bitcoin against monopoly money."
“We’re excited that
#CostaRica
🇨🇷 is working towards a Bitcoin strategy. The economy of the future is built on
#Bitcoin
, and now more than ever nations are interested in achieving greater prosperity.”

Two years ago, El Salvador 🇸🇻 became the first sovereign country to implement a nation-state
#Bitcoin
Strategy!
Here is what has happened since then. 👇
"The only reason that the unbanked can exist is because there is a system by which we deny people access to money and finance." -
@Excellion
Yes,
#Bitcoin
does fix this 🍊💊🇲🇽
"
#FTX
was deeply in bed with regulators. That is the problem. Regulators can't smell the shit of the shitcoins."
@Excellion
, JAN3 CEO, explains on the
@labitconf
's panel why the regulators didn't take any take legal action against
#FTX
.
🇦🇷🌎⚡️
"It could be sooner than you think." Even
@Forbes
is taking notice of how Javier Milei's libertarian thinking could impact
#Bitcoin
adoption in Argentina 🇦🇷.
Check out the full article to read
@Excellion
's comments on the matter.
"I believe all nation-states will adopt a
#Bitcoin
standard eventually... And I would love for Mexico to be one of those first countries." -
@Excellion
🇲🇽
"Any democratic country with a CBDC is no longer a democracy."
This is only a teaser of
@Excellion
and
@PrincFilip1

#Bitcoin
Hub in Belgrade 🇷🇸.

"It's an honor that
@jmilei
has chosen me to shut down the central bank and eliminate inflation, the most evil and arbitrary of taxes in existence, that has for decades contributed to the impoverishment of Argentines."

@ocampo_emilio
Un honor que
@JMilei
me haya elegido para cerrar el banco central y eliminar la inflación, el impuesto más perverso y arbitrario que existe y que desde hace décadas contribuye al empobrecimiento de los argentinos.

@Excellion
,
@bvanhool
, and
@princfilip1
had the honor of meeting
@MickeySpajic
, the Prime Minister of Montenegro.
The JAN3 team initiated a fruitful discussion on how
#Bitcoin
can help Montenegro harness untapped hydroelectric potential and much more. 🇲🇪
Huge announcement by
@Excellion
, JAN3 CEO, at the
#Honeybadger
2022 conference in
#Riga
🇱🇻 that
@PrincFilip1
🇷🇸 joins JAN3 as CSO. He will engage with high-level actors and oversee strategic initiatives to accelerate
#Bitcoin
adoption for nation-states and individuals.🌎
Today, we were honored to meet with President
@CSantokhi
to discuss the possibility of Suriname advancing on its own
#Bitcoin
strategy.
@Excellion
and
@bvanhool
brought their expertise on how Bitcoin can accelerate the ongoing transformation of the country's energy sector.🍊💊🇸🇷
"There are 15 countries in
#Africa
that use the French colonial franc, the CFA. They are effectively using a currency that is created & controlled by France. The people that have built these systems, definitely don't want these systems to be removed.
#Bitcoin
is the alternative."
"I don't see it as improbable that down the road a
#Bitcoin
miner will invest hundreds of millions of dollars into creating their own
#energy
infrastructure and their own energy-production, or building a
#nuclear
power plant," says
@Excellion
, JAN3 CEO.
We are saddened to hear about
@LordFusitua
's passing, who sought to bring
#Bitcoin
adoption and a new kind of freedom to his country.
Rest in power Lord Fusitu’a, may your legacy endure through your family, loved ones, and the people of Tonga. 🇹🇴
Much has been said about Javier Milei's stance on
#Bitcoin
, and while Argentina's new president is no Bitcoiner, his ideals do seem to align with the Bitcoin ethos.
But just how feasible would it be for Argentina to adopt Bitcoin considering its massive IMF debt? 🧵
“Many countries in Latin America will be adopting
#Bitcoin
. El Salvador is the first, but we know that many other countries in the region are starting to look towards it."
-
@Excellion
In its weekly industry recap,
@Reuters
highlights adoption in 🇹🇷 Turkey and 🇦🇷 Argentina.
🇦🇷 Argentina chancellor Diana Mondino states that as part of
@JMilei
's economic emergency decree reforms, all contracts may now use the currency chosen by the parties, including
#Bitcoin
!
Could this signal the Argentine government's intent to treat Bitcoin as money? 👀
"
#Bitcoin
is freedom. Bitcoin is prosperity. Bitcoin energizes individuals and entire nations. Bitcoin is the currency of truth and real independence." -
@PrincFilip1
's closing remarks from his speech at the Costa Rican 🇨🇷 Legislative Assembly.
#Bitcoin
is freedom and that’s just why
@JMilei
might be interested paving the way for it in Argentina. On this
@BitcoinMagazine
article,
@rawrau_
explains how Bitcoin fits in Milei's chainsaw plan.
Wonder why this man's going to
@TheBitcoinConf
?
@ridwankamil
isn’t your average politician, and that makes him perfect to talk

Why is 🇮🇩 Indonesia special? And should bitcoiners care about its next elections? Let’s find out 🧵👇
40k

Committing to daily purchases was one of the ways President
@nayibbukele
made sure his country went all in on Bitcoin, as
@Excellion
told
@BobMurphyEcon
.
Today Senator
@IndiraKempis
welcomes
@Excellion
as her special guest at the Mexican Congress to discuss the future of nation-state
#Bitcoin
adoption.
JAN3 CEO, Samson Mow, will be speaking in just a short while about why Bitcoin should be key state policy for 🇲🇽 Mexico.
Orange-pilling the world is a heck of a challenge, but someone has to step up. Our mission, to help countries embrace the future of money —
#Bitcoin
, has just begun, and we're ramping things up in ways you can't even imagine. 🚀

@Excellion
and
@bvanhool
told the country's press the Government of Suriname and JAN3, are exploring ways to boost Bitcoin usage. They're even considering converting 1% of the central bank's reserves into Bitcoin. 👀
Outcome? A…
"
#Bitcoin
is perfect money. Bitcoin is gold perfected. You can teleport it. You can verify it on your full node. It's perfectly divisible & it's immutable. It solves all the problems that gold has. You don't need to know all the technology behind it." 🌎⚡️

If the
#EU
would have embraced
#Bitcoin
mining, they could have had Bitcoin miners building out additional
#energy
infrastructures. It is still not too late for this.
Milei, a libertarian Argentine economist was elected to the Chamber of Deputies in 2021, after building a reputation for his criticism against local politicians since 2012.
Often a coveted TV guest, many of his rants throughout the years have gone viral. This is Milei on taxes.
JAN3 CEO to Forbes: When ETFs arrive and tens of billions of dollars flow into
#Bitcoin
, they will be buying from less than two million coins across all exchanges.
"If you look at
#Bitcoin
on a 4-year time horizon, it has never gone down. The value proposition of
#Bitcoin
is longterm. President
@nayibbukele
can be down on any given day,
@saylor
can be down on any given day, but let's come back in 10, 20, 30 years - and see where it is at."
"If I freeze your money, you can no longer do anything. It's really important that we go back to apolitical money. The best way to move forward is to just adopt
#Bitcoin
as money, like countries like El Salvador are doing."
-
@Excellion
, JAN3 CEO at the
@alcinseoul
conference.
"You can have flash crashes. You can have dips. In the longterm,
#Bitcoin
is going to absorb all monetary value in the world. Most Bitcoiners have a very longterm perspective, so they don't really worry so much about volatility."

Argentina 🇦🇷 has always had enormous economic potential. For the Argentineans taking more control of their own finances will allow them to move closer to freedom. Now it's time to help them rediscover the true power of
#Bitcoin
and USDt with
@AquaBitcoin
. 😉
🇦🇷 On the back of rumors of potential compromises from
@JMilei
's incoming government, his team put out a letter stating that the closure of Argentina's central bank is non-negotiable. 🤯
Indonesia 🇮🇩, Bhutan 🇧🇹, El Salvador 🇸🇻, and Costa Rica 🇨🇷 are already mining
#Bitcoin
. Who else will join them?
According to
@Excellion
, some nations are quietly adopting it. Why? The IMF's watchful eye and tired old FUD can be daunting, but it's all starting to fade away.
🇮🇩 At +280 million people total, Indonesia's unbanked population alone is bigger than most countries.
@ridwankamil
sees why
#Bitcoin
and Lightning can boost financial inclusion in Indonesia like no other technology can.
Shocked by Ethiopia 🇪🇹 getting into
#Bitcoin
? Energy rich nations from the Global South have the most incentives to embrace Bitcoin, be it through mining or legislation.
When the 2028 halving comes and Bitcoin ETFs have matured, how many nations will have taken similar steps? 👀
Bitcoiners like to say
#Bitcoin
is math, and the multiplier effect is further proof of that.
Watch
@Excellion
break down for
@Sergio_fdezCN
why the BTC/USD ticker could pop once institutional money starts coming in.
"They printed a
#shitcoin
out of thin air & they said it was valuable. They treated it as if it was some sort of asset. Then
#Alameda
blew themselves up on some trade.
@SBF_FTX
took more
#FTT
as collateral. So, they took that shitcoin as collateral, too."
-
@Excellion
, JAN3 CEO
While Argentines embrace
#Bitcoin
as a lifeline against currency controls and inflation, the IMF has pressured 🇦🇷 Argentina to adopt more restrictive policies against it.
“It’s very important that we encourage nation states to break out of the IMF’s hold.” -
@Excellion
Besides attracting investors and helping citizens gain financial literacy, more nations are starting to notice "
#Bitcoin
can be that asset you can use to trade with other countries too," says
@Excellion
on
@mileniotv
.
"If you don't get the governments into
#Bitcoin
in some way, you end up with very dangerous legislation."
@Excellion
explains why fearful leaders like Justin Trudeau turn to authoritarian policies that could eventually affect Bitcoiners. 🇨🇦👀
"Issuing a
#Bitcoin
bond now is beneficial because you will accumulate a large war chest of bitcoin at relatively low prices."
-
@Excellion
to
@Reuters
Yes, countries can stack sats too!
🇨🇷 Like most countries, Costa Rica lacks proper legislation concerning the ownership and trading of
#Bitcoin
and other digital assets. However, recently the nation has resumed debates around a potential crypto assets law that could compromise the ability to freely use Bitcoin as…
Colombia has always viewed
#Bitcoin
favorably, so much so that most reports rank it among the top Latin America countries in terms of organic adoption of the currency in its economy. Moreover, its president
@petrogustavo
, when he was still mayor of Bogotá, has openly spoken about…
Nation-state
#Bitcoin
adoption has to start somewhere. In Europe, Germany is a notable example, where Bundestag MP
@JoanaCotar
has been a staunch advocate for Bitcoin in parliament.
Exciting News! 🚀
We're thrilled to announce
@Andrew_J_Howard
is joining JAN3 as Chief Business Officer. Andrew's journey from Recon Marine to
#Bitcoin
advocate will now see him guide high-net-worth individuals, family offices, companies, and nation-states into Bitcoin. 🌎💼
🇱🇮 Today
@PrincFilip1
had the chance to meet H.S.H. Prince Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein while in Vaduz.
There he spent the day surrounded by fellow admirers of Friedrich von Hayek’s work, with topics like CBDCs and
#Bitcoin
being part of the
@EcaefAustrian
's agenda.
"The more of us that can educate the populace & make them understand how money works, how the financial system works, how the fiat money system works, & why
#Bitcoin
is better, then we can make it a smoother transition. We should not just think it's going to happen easily."
"Just like with gunpowder, you can choose not to adopt
#Bitcoin
, but whoever does it first will win."
-
@Alvaro_DMaria
Álvaro and
@PrincFilip1
argue why Satoshi's creation is as groundbreaking as gunpowder and the automobile, and why ultimately Bitcoin is Džebana for nations.
.
@Excellion
, explained the difference between the top-down approach, making
#Bitcoin
legal tender as in the case of
#ElSalvador
vs. the organic bottom-up approach like
#Lugano
making BTC de facto legal tender, or the possibility of
#Guatemala
🇬🇹 declaring BTC foreign currency.
"What we are trying to do is to educate & work with politicians to roll out a
#Bitcoin
strategy. It could be a Bitcoin law, declaring Bitcoin as legal tender, or it could be Bitcoin adoption through merchants."

A new IMF post warning against "crypto asset adoption" claims that CBDCs "can improve financial inclusion and lower remittances' costs." Does that ring a bell, anyone? 🤔
Avoid the CBDC trap, choose
#Bitcoin
instead!

Think about it: you’ll help people realize why sound money is needed and then point them in the right direction. 🍊💊🗺️
One of the biggest threats to Western civilization is a wrongly structured system of money.
CBDCs undermine permissionless peer to peer transactions. They can be used for coercion and control.

The first major “civil war” in
