LikedOn June 25th 2025, in collaboration with Open Folk, we presented our first ever live interview event in Los Angeles. As Open Folk put it: "In These Lines is a live event where three artists each bring one song — not just to perform, but to explore. They sit down with Sofia Loporcaro, host of Before The Chorus, to talk about where the song came from, what it meant to write it, and what it still holds. Then they play it. Just the song, and the truth behind it."

Live from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador, in this episode, I sit down with my good friend Valentin Popescu, a Romanian missionary doing incredible work in Peru. We talk about how he’s using Bitcoin as a real-world tool to bring hope and financial inclusion to some of the most remote and underserved communities in the country.
Valentin shares his journey, from accidentally ending up in Peru after a back injury and a tragic loss, to launching a network of community centers that provide education, nutrition, emotional support, and now, Bitcoin. We get into his first experience using Bitcoin during the pandemic to buy food for families in need, and how that opened the door to building circular Bitcoin economies in the Andes, the jungle, and the coast.
He’s now running over a dozen community projects across Peru, places where Bitcoin isn’t just a buzzword, it’s how people are getting paid, buying food, and saving for the future. It’s an inspiring story about faith, resilience, and the power of sound money to transform lives.
Whether you’re into missions, grassroots Bitcoin adoption, or just want to hear how sats are being spent in the Sacred Valley and the surf town of Huanchaco, this one’s for you.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedWhat happens when a Salvadoran developer quits trading shitcoins, starts driving Uber, and ends up shaping national Bitcoin education policy? In this episode, Mike sits down with Acreonte, one of the first graduates of the Cubo Plus program and now a key player behind El Salvador’s push to integrate Bitcoin into its institutions. Acreonte shares what it’s really like to live on a Bitcoin standard, from earning SATs at Plan B Network to spending them with the Blink wallet at farmers markets and meetups across the country. He also opens up about the unexpected shift back into fiat life when he joined the Ministry of Education, trading T-shirts and cold wallets for suits and bureaucratic emails. They talk about the cultural tension between fiat and Bitcoin mindsets, what it takes to build real dev talent from the ground up, and how programs like Cubo Plus are helping Salvadoran youth go from zero to building on Lightning. Along the way, Acreonte reflects on his own transformation, from civil war survivor to casino game developer to educator trying to future-proof public schools. This episode is a snapshot of what it means to build from within, in a country betting on Bitcoin not just for headlines but for human capital.

Mike talks with Ana Larios, co-founder of Escuela Libre and Skate, Paint & More, about building a community education program rooted in trust, creativity, and local connection. Ana shares how Escuela Libre grew from three families into a small but thriving homeschool community. It’s a space where kids learn without uniforms or testing, and where volunteers from around the world teach everything from math and English to aerial silks and robotics. The school is part of a growing movement toward non-traditional schooling that centers kids instead of systems. We also get into Skate, Paint & More, an after-school program that offers experiential education through painting, skateboarding, music, and group projects. Most of the local kids had never painted before. Now they’re learning to create, explore, and build confidence in a safe, supportive environment. It’s all free for them, made possible by donations and visiting volunteers. This conversation is for anyone rethinking how learning should work, especially if you care about creative education or are considering a move to El Salvador.

We go deep into how Dr. Monette went from owning a CrossFit gym and practicing functional medicine, to discovering that even those models were still too centralized. Through her personal health journey and treating thousands of patients, she realized that quantum biology and decentralized health are the missing pieces, especially for those who are doing everything “right” and still not getting results.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedLive from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador in this episode, I sit down with Jesse Shrader from Amboss to dive deep into the Lightning Network, stablecoins on Bitcoin, and how we scale Bitcoin for real-world use. We kick things off by discussing why stablecoins on Lightning could be a game changer and why most Bitcoiners aren’t paying enough attention to it. Jesse shares some eye-opening stats, like how Tether did $7 trillion in transactions last year, more than Visa, and explains why stablecoins need Bitcoin’s security to thrive. We also get into Jesse’s personal Bitcoin journey, from his early days watching ads for tiny Bitcoin rewards to dealing with banking scams and shady overdraft fees in a call center job. Those experiences led him to Bitcoin, but it wasn’t until he hit insane on-chain fees in 2017 that he really saw the need for Lightning. From there, we break down the challenges of Lightning payments, why large transactions still fail, and how Amboss is helping make the network more efficient. Jesse explains how merchants can lease liquidity instead of paying Visa’s 3% fees, and how Lightning node operators can earn yield on their Bitcoin, without counterparty risk. We also touch on the future of Bitcoin payments, regulatory challenges, and what’s happening in El Salvador. If you’ve ever wondered how Lightning works behind the scenes and where it’s headed, this episode is for you.

Enrique’s story is wild. One day, he was living the high life as a private equity guy in Panama. The next, he was on the run, hit with an Interpol Red Notice, accused of crimes he didn’t commit, and forced into exile. But here’s where it gets interesting, Bitcoin saved him. With his assets at risk of being frozen, Enrique remembered something his wife had told him years before: Bitcoin can’t be confiscated. So, he moved his savings into BTC, not as an investment, but as financial insurance. That decision changed everything. He went down the rabbit hole, realized what Bitcoin really means, and is now dedicating his life to helping others gain financial sovereignty, especially in places where governments can seize everything overnight. We talk about how Panama missed its chance with Bitcoin while El Salvador is making all the right moves. Enrique shares his firsthand experience with the dangers of government-controlled money, something people are waking up to even in the US. He explains why he’s now working with Blink (formerly Bitcoin Beach Wallet) to push Bitcoin adoption and how Latin America and Africa are about to see a massive wave of financial transformation.
