Dr. Saifedean Ammous, prominent economist and author of "The Bitcoin Standard," is poised to take on a new role as an Economic Advisor to El Salvador's Bitcoin Office. This appointment comes after El Salvador made history by becoming the first country to adopt bitcoin as legal tender in September 2021.
Having Saifedean Ammous on team El Salvador is fantastic, Max Keiser, Senior Bitcoin Advisor to the country said in a statement to Bitcoin Magazine. Ammous brilliantly captured the role of Bitcoin as, The alternative to Central Banking in his now classic, The Bitcoin Standard as well as the philosophy of Bitcoin including popularizing the idea of 'time preference' as a life-hack. This news makes me very happy.
