Pay for El Salvador citizenship in Bitcoin.
The contribution settles on-chain, direct to the sovereign. After approval, the $1,000,000 moves from your wallet to a government-controlled address in BTC or USDT, with no custodian standing in between.
Approval first. Then the coins move once.
No payment happens until the file clears. After due diligence clears and approval is issued, you transfer the $1,000,000 in BTC or USDT direct to a government-controlled address.
21 CBI coordinates the mechanics that matter: wallet verification, the timing of the transfer, and on-chain confirmation. We make sure the address is the right one, the amount is the right one, and the transaction lands before anyone calls the obligation settled. The coins go from your wallet to the sovereign's; nothing sits in a third-party account on the way through.
The USD value is locked at the moment of transfer, with a re-quote if Bitcoin moves before confirmation. You are never exposed to a price that drifts away from you mid-settlement: the dollar figure that clears the contribution is the figure quoted at the moment the coins leave your wallet. On-chain settlement confirms in minutes, and the file moves to the next step. For the full ladder of figures behind the all-in single of $1,050,000 and the family of four at $1,052,997, the pricing page sets every line out.
What the contribution will and will not accept.
The settlement rails for the $1,000,000 are narrow by design. These are the fixed constraints, stated plainly, so there is no surprise at the moment of transfer.
The provenance behind the coins is the gate, not the rails. Before any of this matters, the source of the funds has to survive review; the full on-chain playbook is on the source-of-funds page.
The fee is separate, and it is more flexible.
The $1,000,000 contribution and the 21 CBI advisory fee never share a wallet. The fee, a flat $50,000, settles on its own rails, and those rails are wider than the contribution's.
The separate 21 CBI advisory fee invoices via BitSettle or BTCPay, which means on-chain BTC, Lightning, or USDT, or fiat if you prefer to keep your coins where they are. The bulk of the fee is due at approval, alongside the contribution, so the timeline is the same even though the rails are not. Lightning is the one rail the advisory fee accepts that the contribution cannot, precisely because the fee is small enough to clear over it.
This is the only money that moves before the contribution does, and it is the only money the firm itself receives. The contribution belongs to the sovereign; the fee is what 21 CBI is paid to coordinate the file, the provenance pre-audit, and the settlement. The full figure sits inside the all-in single of $1,050,000 on the pricing page.
You keep custody until the coins leave.
There is a reason the contribution moves direct from your wallet to the sovereign's, and not through an escrow account or a firm-controlled address. You keep custody until the moment of transfer. The sovereign receives the coins directly. And everything, the address, the amount, the confirmation, is verifiable on-chain by anyone who cares to look.
Not your keys until the moment they are the sovereign's. No custodian, no escrow, no third-party account holding seven figures of your Bitcoin while a file processes.
This is the structural difference between a Bitcoin-native program and a fiat program that bolts a crypto on-ramp to the front. Here, the asset never leaves the chain, the trail never goes through a middleman, and the settlement is a public fact the moment it confirms. As Adam Juchniewicz, CEO of 21 CBI, puts it: you keep custody of the $1,000,000 until the moment it becomes the sovereign's, and the whole transfer is verifiable on-chain. The one thing this directness asks of you is a clean trail behind the coins; cross-reference the provenance requirements on the source-of-funds page before you commit, because that is the work that has to be done before any of this settles.
Walk the settlement before you move a coin.
Book a confidential file-read with Adam to walk the source-of-funds and the on-chain settlement before anything moves. The contribution is collected only after approval, and no sat leaves your wallet until the file clears.
