Round Rock Bitcoiners welcomes Carliño, the visionary leader behind DigitalWitness.io, for an evening that sits at the crossroads of Bitcoin technology and democratic integrity. Carliño led the first real-time, post-election audit in history to successfully verify every election document produced by Guatemala’s voting system during the 2023 national elections — making Guatemala the first country in the world to protect its voting process with Bitcoin and deliver an independent audit of results in real time.
In this Socratic-style discussion, Carliño walks attendees through how the Bitcoin blockchain and Lightning Network turned what was once considered impossible into a landmark achievement in election transparency. The evening features a preview of his documentary chronicling the full story, a live Q&A over Jitsi Meet, and a behind-the-scenes look at the tools that made it happen. His work ultimately brought him to the SimpleProof.com team, and his message is clear: a new generation of Bitcoiners will come for Democracy — but stay for Bitcoin.
The night also includes tool demos and a peer-to-peer circular economy session, better known as Satoshi Square, offering attendees a hands-on taste of Bitcoin in action.
