In today’s edition of The Daily, we’re focusing on human interest stories. Tales involving people rather than products, as a reminder of the many ways in which cryptocurrency affects people’s lives, transforming them for the better. From Australia to China, Thursday’s roundup is as borderless as bitcoin itself.
Man Travels the World on 1 BTC
Never mind living on bitcoin for 21 days – one man has gone 344 days better than the Chinese women recently profiled and survived for a whole year. Armed with 1 BTC he purchased for $4,724 last August, the Redditor managed to take in 18 countries in 12 months. Trip highlights included meeting Vitalik Buterin in China, John McAfee in Singapore, and hitting up Amsterdam, where he confessed to having “Used a bit of my almost-running-out-BTC to taste true wormwood absinthe.”
The crypto fanatic captured some of his most memorable moments in a short video for posterity. The chief takeaway from his round the globe extravaganza? “Crypto will set us free.”
