Bitcoin Foundation chairman Brock Pierce thinks he represents the Bitcoin industry. A lot of Bitcoiners disagree. In a trip joined by the El Salvadoran Ambassador to the US, Milena Mayorga, Pierce carried the flag on behalf of hundreds of thousands of anonymous users, few of whom have declared him their representative, and planted it firmly in the Central American country, where President Nayib Bukele recently declared Bitcoin as legal tender.
“Very honored to lead this official delegation of Bitcoin ambassadors to El Salvador to educate the government about how Bitcoin, Blockchain and technology can create a brighter future for everyone in their nation,” Pierce tweeted on June 16.
