Gabriel Jiménez, The Controversial Mastermind Behind The Venezuelan Petro on Being An Enemy Of The State, The Importance of Crypto, Working For A Dictator And Much More.

From Scott Melker - "This episode is likely the most important and unbelievable that I will ever record. I had the honor and fortune to interview Gabriel Jiménez, the mind behind the Venezuelan Petro. Gabriel has always been an active member of the opposition and spent his life protesting the Chavez and Maduro regimes - so how did he end up on stage with Maduro presenting the Petro as it's architect!? I have the entire story and more, including why Bitcoin is essential to every day life in Venezuela. His story was made public recently after 2 years of research by the New York Times. He is still an "enemy of the state" in Venezuela, so he is just feeling remotely safe in the United States and can start sharing his story. This is the only podcast that he has been on. Buckle up." --- ROUNDLYX RoundlyX allows you to dollar-cost-average into crypto with our spare change "Roundup" investing tool, manage multiple crypto exchange accounts in one dashboard and access curated digital asset content and services.
