British Bitcoin podcaster Peter McCormack traveled to El Salvador to document the new Bitcoin law. He was invited to create a film about El Salvador’s Bitcoin law by Jack Mallers, whose company, Strike, is piloting Bitcoin payments technology that cuts costs for Salvadoran emigrants sending money back home. 

For at least a month, McCormack trailed Mallers with a film crew to document the experiment. Mallers is confident that with Bitcoin, Strike can cut transaction fees to near-zero. If it works, Strike could bring the technology to other countries. If it fails, El Salvador could continue hurtling into debt.
