Saving Lives With Bitcoin in Latin America with Pablo Gonzalez, Co-Founder of Bitso
Pablo Gonzalez, the Co-Founder of Bitso, Latin America\u2019s most popular crypto exchange, first started using Bitcoin in 2011. Pablo was also one of Mexico\u2019s first residents to use the internet when it was first being installed in the country.
