The Bitcoin in El Salvador documentary is out and should be an interesting watch. Here’s some insight on it for those who don’t want to jump in and watch it off the bat:

The audiovisual part of the “Bitcoin in El Salvador” documentary is truly amazing. Dutch national Arnold Hubach, Bitcoin Magazine NL’s editor, got shots that are out of this world. He recorded the good, the bad, and the ugly about the whole Bitcoinization process. The man is obviously partial to Bitcoin but, from the political point of view, he gave us much needed neutral look at the events
To record the documentary, Hubatch got to El Salvador a week after Legal Tender Day. September 7th, the day the Bitcoin Law got into effect. Not much is happening. The Chivo kiosks are there, but they’re not functional yet. He has a hard time finding a business that accepts Bitcoin. He manages to pay with Lightning at a barbershop.
