Nu a fost A Bitcoin Eveniment. Atunci, de ce au fost bancherii centrali în El Salvador?

Săptămâna a început cu bancheri centrali si autoritati financiare din 44 de tari arriving in El Salvador. The mainstream media ignored it completely. The IMF started sweating. President Bukele started meme-ing. Everybody assumed they were there to learn about bitcoin. It was so obvious that nobody questioned it.

Well, as it turns out, the representatives were there for an annual event by the Alliance for Financial Inclusion (AFI). The organization describes its objective as, “Empowering policymakers & regulatory institutions to advance financial inclusion for the poorest populations.” On the first three days, the central bankers saw panels and formed working groups in the Sheraton Presidente Hotel in San Salvador. On the fourth day, they went to Bitcoin Beach, visited the Hope House, and paid for it all with Lightning.

Titlul evenimentului a fost „Reuniuni ale grupului de lucru pentru servicii financiare digitale și finanțare pentru IMM-uri,” and the AFI described its objectives alluding, but never mentioning bitcoin:

„Se anticipează ca grupurile de lucru să ofere un lider de gândire practic și îndrumări de reglementare cu privire la problemele de politică cruciale și nerezolvate sub formă de modele de politici, cadre și seturi de instrumente ca rezultat al acestei colaborări și să constituie coloana vertebrală a conținutului AFI. Întâlnirile se aliniază, de asemenea, cu strategia națională de incluziune financiară lansată recent de El Salvador, care are ca prioritate digitalizarea și accesul la finanțare pentru întreprinderile mici.”

In any case, as the video above shows, the central bankers screamed “bitcoin! "

Ce au făcut de fapt bancherii centrali?

De la pamant, acest raport Galoy despre eveniment has the goods. It concludes, “through firsthand experience, this group of central bankers is seeing what Bitcoin can do for people left out of the current financial system.” On those first few days, the central bankers saw a panel about the subject at hand. 

“There was one Bitcoin session. Roman Martinez (Chimbera) and Nicolas Burtey shared the story of Bitcoin Beach and provided an introduction to Bitcoin and the Lightning Network”

On those first few days, the central bankers got bitcoin wallets set up.“Outside the conference room the Bitcoin Beach Wallet team set up tables where attendees were shown how to download and use a Lightning wallet.” Those would come in handy on the fourth day, when the organizers took them to El Zonte AKA Bitcoin Beach. Over there, the central bankers paid for everything with their new wallets and “learned how to exchange Bitcoin for dollars at an ATM.”

What a historic day!! Who could've thought Central Bankers would have their first experience with #Bitcoin folosind Bitcoin Beach Wallet and in El Zonte @bitcoinplajă de unde a început totul. Așa arată incluziunea financiară! pic.twitter.com/krg8R26mXi

Într-un tweet, Bitcoin Beach Wallet team shared some pictures and reported, “What a historic day!! Who could’ve thought Central Bankers would have their first experience with Bitcoin folosind Bitcoin Beach Wallet and in El Zonte, where everything started. This is what financial inclusion looks like!”

Un cal troian

The central bankers came looking for financial inclusion and they got it in spades. It’s as Bitcoinist said in oprimul raport despre situație:

“El Salvador which is the first country to accept Bitcoin as legal tender will no doubt be the footprint of adoption for other countries interested in making such a move. It is still less than a year after the implementation but the president revealed that they would be discussing how beneficial using BTC as legal tender had been for the country and its citizens.”

You can’t unring a bell. Those central bankers from 44 countries where the traditional banking system failed to accomplish its goals, now know about bitcoin. They’ve seen the future and there’s no turning back. We’ll feel the ripples emanating from this event soon enough.
