From YouTube: Blockchain as a Driver of Economies in Latin America - Eloisa Cadenas - Montaña (Main Stage)
Description
Blockchain technology can have great benefits; However, for Latin America it can be a watershed by having the combination of new forms of financial inclusion and the use of natural resources that it has. For example, large green regions could contribute their lands for regeneration and compensation of the carbon footprint and thus establish an ecosystem where everyone benefits.

Let's
see
everything
that
is
being
done
around
blockchain,,
which
is
not
only
bitcoin
to
invest
or
bitcoin
to
make
a
profit,,
but
we
can
use
bitcoin
to
help
communities
in
Latin
America
and
also
how
blockchain
can
support
sustainable
environments
and
also
to
small
communities.
So
I
am
very
excited.
Thank,
you
very
much
to
a
file
Coin
that
has
supported
the
event
and
Well,.
This
somit
seems
incredible.
A
To
me.
In
particular
regions,
crypto
has
developed
in
countries
like
Brazil
Argentina,
Venezuela,
Colombia,
Mexico
I
am
from
Mexico,
and
we
see
that
it
is
growing
very
significantly
and
well.
El
Salvador
is
a
particular
case
where
we
see
that
there
really
is
there
is.
There
is
significant
development
In
this
sense,.
A
We
know
that
one
of
the
main
problems
in
Latin
America
is
the
small
Good.
Investment
We
also
have
high
levels
of
inflation,
but
something
that
hurts
these
countries
a
lot
is
corruption
So.
That's
when
we
began
to
see
how
blockchain
technology
can
support
these
countries.
In
recent
years,
in,,
let's
say,
from
covid
19
of
the
pandemic.
There
has
been
a
very
little
foreign
direct
investment
in
these
countries.
We
see
that
investment
in
these
communities
has
been
or
has
decreased
significantly,
and
we
are
looking
for
How.
We
can
tie
this
with
technology.
A
We
could
think
if
crypto
really
It
can
give
benefits
and
crypto
can
be
a
solution
to
help
these
regions
to
show
them
some
hard
data,
Some
numbers
If.
We
look
at
the
investment
of
startups
and
projects
in
Latin
America,
countries
in
other
regions,
such
as
Europe,
have
had
significant
growth.
O
North
America
pays
close
attention
to
Latin
America,,
particularly
because
of
the
issue
of
remittances.
L.
A
Remittances
are
very
important
in
these
countries,
and
I
can
tell
you
that
not
only
Mexico
but
also
El,
Salvador,
Honduras
Nicaragua
Guatemala
depend
to
a
large
extent
on
this
income
that
comes
from
abroad.
So
crypto
becomes
essential
for
these
regions,
as
we
can
see
in
the
mapa.
Brazil
has
been
one
of
the
countries
that
has
had
the
most
development
in
crypto
issues.
To
give
you
an
idea
of
how
the
future
can
be
like.
We
have
three
important
regions
that
are
Colombia,
Mexico
and
Brazil.
A
To
give
you
an
idea
in
Mexico,
10%
of
the
Remittances
are
transacted
in
crypto
through
an
exchange
called
bixo
bitso,.
Now
it
has
grown
in
Brazil
and
also
in
Argentina,
and
it
is
the
most
important
in
Mexico,
and
it
is
worth
noting
that
the
main
income
in
Mexico
is
remittances.
So.
This
becomes
becomes
very
relevant,.
We
can
also
see
in
this
graph
how,
by
2022
these
countries
like
El,
Salvador,
Honduras
Nicaragua,
show
that
relationship
d,
the
increase
in
remittances,
and
it
is
very
important
in
Venezuela,
for
example,
in
Venezuela.
A
There
are
already
many
places
where
Dash
is
particularly
accepted..
Dash
has
done
an
interesting
job
of
allowing
crypto
to
be
accepted
in
different
establishments
and
eliminating
those
entry
barriers
that
have
to
be
Through.
The
banks,
then
people,,
for
example,
in
Venezuela,,
can
have
jobs
with
foreign
companies
and
prefer
to
receive
their
fees
in
crypto
or
stable
coins,
because
it
makes
it
easier
for
them
to
be
able
to
transact
and
receive
money
in
El.
Salvador
is
also
An
interesting
case,
since
bitcoin
became
legal
tender
in
El.
A
Salvador
does
not
use
bitcoin,
but
other
types
of
cryptoactives
are
also
used,
and
the
wallets
that
were
opened
in
El
Salvador
were
around
4
million
accounts
in
two
months,
then
This
also
speaks
of
an
important
adoption.
That,,
although
it
is
true,,
was
part
of
the
governments
or
bu
It
was
not
part
of
the
government,,
an
imposition
by
the
government,.
What
we
can
highlight
is
that
at
least
the
people
already
know
it,
the
people
have
already
evolved
in
that
part,.
A
If
we
talk
about
bitcoin
in
El
Salvador,,
at
least
they
already
know
it
or
already
know
what
is
it
about
and
what
is
a
new
way
of
receiving
a
payment
to
close
the
conversation
in
Latin
America.
Given
the
economic
complexity
that
exists,,
it
is
very
important
that
we
talk
about
the
concept
of
shared
economy
or
collaborative
economy,.
A
We
could
now
in
Latin.
America
projects
are
being
developed
through
Netflix
to
be
able
to
do
the
financing
of
land.
That
e
are
in
Colombia
that
are
in
Mexico
and
to
be
able
to
exploit
that
land
be
able
to
be
oriented
towards
coffee
or
even
bonds
or
carbon
credits
to
be
able
to
market
those
carbon
credits
through
of
on
Netflix
using
blockchain
technology.
Why
do
it
like
this,
because
the
market
of
carbon
credits
regularly
it
can
be
complicated
or
not?
All
people
can
understand
it
by
using
a
touch
on
a
crypto
asset.
A
We
can
democratize
it
and
we
can
do
it
in
a
simpler
way
and
the
benefit
can
be
in
many
ways
not
only
for
the
investor
but
also
for
the
people
or
the
people
who
can
eventually
contribute
their
land
so
that
it
can
be
developed
and
a
regeneration
can
and
can
exist,.
That
is
why
it
is
important
and
the
financing
not
only
has
to
come
from
private
capital,.
A
Do
it
with
nfts
or
with
crypto
assets
gives
the
benefit
that
it
can
be
done
internationally
and
in
a
very,
very
simple
way,
without
having
to
return
to
traditional
systems
such
as
banks,
the
benefits
as
I
mentioned,
for
example,
in
Mexico.
We
have
the
case
of
in
Chiapas.
We
have
the
case
of
exploiting
or
using
these
lands
for
coffee,
and
this
financing
is
done
through
stable
coins.
So
people
don't
really
need
that
much
capital.
A
They
need
ten
thousand
dollars,
15
thousand
dollars
to
be
able
to
get
their
production
and
be
able
to
evolve
and
move
forward
with
that
with
their
economy.
So
I
can
really
tell
you
that
I
live
it
I,
see
it
all
the
time
crypto
Crypto
becomes
a
technology
and
a
mechanism
that
can
really
support
these
communities.
Suddenly,.
We
might
think
if
crypto
is
a
fad
or
if
bitcoin
is
mainstream.
A
From
the
use
of
crypto
assets,
you
can
support
small
communities
and
you
can
generate
a
collaborative
economy.
You
realize
the
impact
and
about
the
benefits
and
the
potential
that
may
exist.
