Build a Real Life Abroad — With On-Chain Money
A documentary-style YouTube series stress-testing whether you can actually build a real life in Colombia with crypto and stablecoins — and whether it should be your base or just a chapter.
No hype. No cope. Just a structured look at what really works.

What On-Chain Abroad Is (and Isn’t)
On-Chain Abroad is not a travel vlog and not a “live on $500 a month” channel.
It’s a focused, documentary-style project asking one question:
If most of your savings are on-chain, can you actually build a real life abroad — starting with Colombia?
Real life means:
- •Your own apartment
- •A stable monthly routine
- •Gym, healthcare, and some travel
- •A social life and dating that don’t feel like a downgrade
- •A legal way to stay that isn’t just visa roulette
Season 1 puts Colombia under a microscope — especially Bogotá and Medellín — from the perspective of a single guy (or couple) with on-chain money who is tired of the US/EU hamster wheel and wants to know if Colombia should be a base or just a chapter.
Who This Is For
On-Chain Abroad speaks directly to a specific type of person:
You Have On-Chain Savings
A meaningful chunk of your net worth is in crypto or stablecoins. You’re not broke, but you’re not trying to YOLO everything into a mortgage back home.
You’re Considering a Real Move
You’re not just chasing weekend tourism. You’re thinking about actually living abroad for a few years: apartment, maybe a car, maybe a long-term relationship.
You Want Better Odds, Not Fairytales
You’re skeptical of both extremes: “everything is perfect abroad” and “everything is doomed.” You want a clear picture of lifestyle, dating, safety, visas, and money — with on-chain reality baked in.
Season 1: Colombia — Vacation vs Real Life
Season 1 is a structured reality check on Colombia, especially Bogotá and Medellín.
The series asks:
- ?What does it really cost to live well, not minimally?
- ?How does the dating and relationship reality feel after more than one trip?
- ?What does a normal week look like once the “new country high” fades?
- ?Do you actually need a car, and how much does traffic and commuting affect your sanity?
- ?How do visas and residency requirements change the long-term picture?
- ?And if you ever wanted to buy property using your own capital, all-cash, starting from on-chain — what are you actually walking into?
New episodes drop weekly, building toward a simple, honest conclusion:
For someone with on-chain money, is Colombia a realistic base… or just an incredible chapter?

The On-Chain Twist: Level 1 vs Level 2
Most expat content assumes: salary → bank → apartment.
On-Chain Abroad assumes something different: Most of your money starts on-chain.
Throughout the season, we separate two realities:
Level 1 – Living Off Your Stack
Modern apps make it much easier to move dollars or stablecoins into local pesos, pay Colombian bank accounts or Nequi, and cover your life at $2k–$4k/month.
For normal living expenses, this is often “solved” if you plan it properly.
Level 2 – Buying Assets All-Cash
There is no “20% down and a mortgage” here. If you buy property, you’re paying 100% cash.
- • How do you move $150k–$250k, not just rent money?
- • What do lawyers, notaries, and sellers need to see?
- • How do KYC and "source of funds" work?
- • How fragile is your setup if it depends on a single app?
The goal isn’t to scare you away from using your on-chain money. It’s to show where modern rails make life easy — and where you still need serious structure.
Ways to Plug In
This isn’t a one-way broadcast. The series is shaped by real situations from viewers who are actually considering this move.

After Colombia: Testing Panama
Season 1 is a full stress test of Colombia. If the series gains traction, the next logical step is to run the same process on Panama — a place with more "boring" but favorable legal structures and a financial system better aligned with large on-chain capital.
On-Chain Abroad exists so you don’t have to guess — you can see both through the same lens.
