Zussel is a resident of Próspera — a start-up city located in Honduras — who lives on a bitcoin standard and teaches Bitcoin through Amity Age — the oldest Bitcoin education program in Central America. And based on my conversation with Zussel, her life seems pretty good! So, can this city in which taxes are low and personal freedoms are high combined with bitcoin being legal tender become a model for the rest of Honduras? This is the big question, and Zussel's answer is "yes." Check out the interview and leave a comment if you think Zussel is onto something.
