Many people worldwide live in environments of inflation, instability of the local currency, stringent capital controls on outflows, high transaction costs on financial services, and other financial obstacles. This financial apartheid is the greatest obstacle facing the developing world. Bitcoin solves this!

An immigrant from Egypt raised in the heart of New York, Ray has always had a passion for helping others. He dreamed of a world where finance was accessible to everyone and that idea manifested as Paxful. Ray is the CEO of Paxful, an entrepreneur, developer and a product guy, who loves humans and Bitcoin. He has been to Nigeria, witnessing the youth building a pan African financial settlement layer using ‪Bitcoin.

Rodrigo has a background in International Relations, where he as a Diplomat for El Salvador founded the “Swedish Central American Chamber of Commerce” and was awarded “Best Diplomat in the Russian Federation 2020” and as International Strategy Consultant, before joining Bitrefill as Country Manager for El Salvador 2021. He has taken a prominent role in his native country of El Salvador promoting Bitcoin as a tool for financial inclusion and creating a circular economy, being part of building a growing Bitcoin community, hosting events on- and offline, as well as giving lectures at Universities and private organizations about Bitcoin. Rodrigo is also a part of the organizing team of Adopting Bitcoin.
