Live from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador, in this episode, I sit down with Marc Guillard, the man behind Germany's famous Bitcoin Hotel, to hear his incredible story. Marc shares how he turned his family’s hotel into a Bitcoin-themed destination and why it’s become a magnet for Bitcoiners from around the world.

We discuss why he’s spending more time in El Salvador, a country leading the way in Bitcoin adoption and economic freedom. Marc explains the positive energy here, the rise of new opportunities, and why he believes El Salvador is a model for a Bitcoin future.

We also dive into the challenges in Europe, from rising inflation and tax burdens to regulatory overreach, and how Bitcoin offers a lifeline for those seeking financial sovereignty. Marc gives us a glimpse into his thriving YouTube channel, including how he’s using AI to share his passion for Bitcoin in multiple languages.

Tune in to hear Marc’s journey, his thoughts on the cycles of history, and why he believes Bitcoin is the ultimate tool for building a brighter future.
