A traveler Rafael Hauxley visited 18 countries throughout the year to shoot materials for a film about the crypto industry.

In August 2017, Rafael bought Bitcoin for $ 4,724 and a month later he began his journey from Portland, Oregon.

"There were jokes in December and January that I’d be traveling forever," said the traveler.

At that time, the price reached a record high of $20 thousand, and the traveler even thought about selling his BTC, but on the advice of Hong Kong cryptoexperts he continued on his way.

As part of the trip, Rafael Hawksley visited 18 countries, including: China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, India, Ethiopia, Egypt, Czech Republic, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark.

In all countries, the traveler paid for purchases and services in cryptocurrency and used a bank card in countries with strict regulation. During the year, he met

John McAfee

and

Vitalik Buterin

, and also took many interviews. In general, Raphael shot 178 hours of material for the future film about cryptocurrency.

A Bitcoin tourist told about his mission:

“During my travels the crypto community and everything I experienced kind of changed my mission. It broadened in scope to the things that are happening around the world. It changed from me just living on one bitcoin to this battle against the misinformation and disinformation that's happening not just in the States, but everywhere.”

At the moment, Rafael stopped in Poland, where he is working on creating his documentary movie “Bitcoin Around the World”.
