The Salinas quote stands out — he’s lived through peso crises and built a conglomerate despite them. For the millions of smaller LATAM business owners who don’t have his resources, the challenge is the same but the tools are finally catching up. Taproot Assets now allow USDC and USDT to move natively over Lightning Network. A shop owner in Argentina receiving pesos can convert to dollar stablecoins in seconds via a phone, no bank account needed. That’s the first step of the same playbook ORANGE JUICE is running — preserve value, then compound into Bitcoin. The difference is this can happen at the street level now, not just at the institutional level. Curious whether ORANGE JUICE sees an opportunity to apply this model to LATAM businesses directly, given Salinas’s involvement.
