**Features | This Climber Once Took a Bitcoin Logo Flag to the Summit of Mount Everest**
Dadvan Ismat Yousuf, an entrepreneur from Iraq with a hobby of mountain climbing, once raised a flag with the Bitcoin (BTC) logo at the summit of Mount Everest on May 20, 2024.
Yousuf became the first Iraqi to successfully reach the summit of Mount Everest, having started the expedition a month earlier. In fact, he took the Bitcoin flag to the top to highlight financial issues in Iraq.
"My expedition started on April 2 and ended on May 22. I had never climbed a mountain before. My goal is to highlight financial education issues in underprivileged countries. So I took the Kurdistan and Bitcoin flags to the summit," Yousuf stated, quoting Almasra.
