YAP, AND MOST OF THEM ARE FROM THE US,...THAT IS WHY THEY CONVINCED THE RULING AUTHORITIES OF PUERTO RICO TO ALLOW PUERTO RICO TO BECOME A US STATE.

THE PUERTO RICANS WERE LURED INTO BELIEVING THAT THIS WAS A GOOD THING BECAUSE THE US RULING AUTHORITIES MADE IT SOMEWHAT COMFORTABLE FOR THEM BY MAKING SPANISH THE SECOND LANGUAGE AND BY GIVING THEM PRESENTS SUCH AS EASY WELFARE BENEFITS WITHOUT EMPLOYMENT REQUIREMENTS ,..AT THE TIME

YOU CAN ACTUALLY ARGUE, THAT THE PUERTO RICANS SOLD THEIR COUNTRY OUT TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER AND NOW THE TRUE INTENT AND PURPOSE OF THEIR PRESENTS IS SLOWLY SHOWING UP,...

PUERTO RICANS, IN EFFECT, SOLD THEIR COUNTRY FOR THE EASY LIFE BUT NOW IT IS TOO LATE FOR COMPLAINING ..!!

ARE YOU LISTENING MEXICO?...BECAUSE YOU APPEAR TO BE NEXT,...

JUST MY HUMBLE OPINION FOLKS

The Mysterious Crypto Billionaires Taking Over Puerto Rico

Five months after Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico is still struggling to rebound. As an unincorporated territory of the United States, the small island was sidelined when it came to restoration efforts. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers estimates that over 10 percent of the island’s residents are still without power, though Carmen Yulin Cruz, Mayor of San Juan puts that number closer to 30 percent.

Electricity isn’t the only concern for Puerto Ricans. Over 400,000 residents are still using blue tarps as roofs on their homes as they wait for federal assistance.

Cruz noted: “The U.S. government response has been inadequate, has been inefficient, and has been inappropriate.”

Crypto-Colonialism

A growing group of self-proclaimed “Puertopians” are flocking to Puerto Rico to set up a crypto-paradise. Because of its unincorporated status, the island has acted as a tax haven – and playground – for the super-rich for decades, and the new generation of crypto-millionaires is proving to be no exception.

The goal is to build an entirely new city with cryptocurrencies and blockchain tech as the foundation. The group has even been scouting the island for prospects, searching for a location where they will be able to build an airport and docks.

In the meantime, however, the Puertopians are occupying Old San Juan, eating at nice restaurants and living in upscale hotels in the heart of the colonial section of the city.
