SEATTLE, Sept. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- El Salvador is the first country in the world to adopt bitcoin as legal tender. Now Joel Kasr, founder of KaJ Labs and Lithosphere, has pledged to gift 6,000 BTC to El Salvador and nations like Panama that are adopting bitcoin as legal tender.

The 10-year pledge will distribute the funds in various phases through the KaJ Labs Foundation. The Foundation set aside five percent of the total supply of $LITHO to social responsibility causes and this is the first cause that the foundation will be supporting. While a handful of nations such as Ukraine, Cuba and Germany have approved legislation to govern digital assets, El Salvador is the first to accept bitcoin as legal tender.

El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele spearheaded the effort to enable cryptocurrency to be allowed as legal tender. It became law in June 2021 and marked a worldwide historic first. It will spur investment in the country and assist the 70 percent of residents that don't have access to traditional banking services. It also aids Salvadorans residing outside the country that send money back to their homeland, that represents 24 percent of El Salvador's GDP.

The country purchased 400 bitcoin worth approximately $21 million the day before it adopted cryptocurrency as legal tender. Individuals that wish to conduct transactions with the cryptocurrency can sign up to the country's wallet app called Chivo with a national ID.
